Richard, First and most important is what kind of doctor you went to??? Was he or she a Nephrologist? As you know they are the ones that specialize with kidneys. If that doctor is not then i urge you to follow up with one.
>From what i know having a sever infection will most probably effect your kidneys, but it is usually reversible. A lot of antibiotics will also do the same. In fact I know all about it because i had to have a kidney transplant but not for the same reason. Almost 29 years ago i had CML and subsequently a BMT which caused my to undergo total body radiation and huge amounts of chemotherapy. Then about twenty years later my kidneys failed and then for four years, dialysis then a kidney transplant. Now mind you Richard this should not happen to you but for my own circumstances it did happen to me. Now guess what? I was just released from the hospital because of a severe sepsis infection. Because of my knowledge when some of the IV antibiotics were offered to me one of which was Vancomycin because of my condition. Don't get me wrong Vancomycin is a very good antibiotic and i have used it many times, i even had to use it by myself during home care and i would sit there with an IV pole for a couple of hours under that home care nurse, but for the most part i did it by myself. Trust my i know what i am talking about and there are always some good things and also some bad things but the bottom line is that i am still alive and functional. Hey, I have been through the "ringer" but then so have most of you as well, and that bottom line also exists for everyone that may be reading this. You just have to know how to ask questions, try getting to the best doctors that you can, and be an advocate for yourself. You would really be surprised for yourself how it works. I have spent many, many hours on this because i have an obligation that i once made and i try living up to it. Now have you wondered why i end my communications with 18's? Well now you do, it is my obligation. 18's, Marty On Tue, Nov 28, 2017 at 12:30 AM, Richard H <rbhuffm...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well riding the tide just didn't work out.
