Guest guest Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Well, this day has been quite long already and it is only 10 AM! We went to our scheduled 7 AM appointment only to be told it was cancelled due to a URINARY TRACT INFECTION with two different types of bacteria found. It makes me wonder how many times this has happened to her before. Her only symptoms we have saw was that nasty smell we were talking about recently. It has been continuing for quite some time now!!! So, the testing will probably be done tomorrow after being on antibiotics for 24 hours. Sad thing about this mornign was we had so little sleep and were told last evening that they would call us so we wouldn't need to come in if there was a complication such as a urinary infection. They knew where we were and just didn't bother calling!!! Most importantly however, is the fact that Asenath obviously has been having urinary problems for a long time and noone has thought it necessary to see a urologist until I told Dr. Whiteman just how MUCH she was putting out at night. (While dehydrated she put out 300-400 cc-and that was a very light diaper!) She has had issues probably due to her strokes for quite a while but I think the docs were so preoccupied by the other issues, especially the artery issues, so they overlooked this area. At least her kidneys look good at this point so hopefully there isn't much wrong. Prayers appreciated! By the way, thanks for all the responses. And to those of you who have written asking questions, I will try to answer them as soon as I can. I just got through reading 105-110 e-mails so am a little tired at this point. Maybe respond within a few days.
