I know I put on our fabulous posters knowledge so much but I need your help again. I have started a new thread as if I put it under Noorza's News it might get lost.
I have seen most things with mum but this is new. She was taken to hospital with swollen legs, hugely swollen, they were infected, they've sorted out her infection and the angry red is reducing, the itching is being treated, they've put her on intravenous diuretics and she had stopped weeing, now started again after intravenous drip.
But her legs are so swollen if you rub a finger gently down them they weep water, it's clear, not infected, just clear water. I've never seen anything like it. If you rub them again more water is leaked from her legs.
They are transferring her to a heart ward asap. She's had 5 heart attacks, a stroke, has degenerative heart disease and kidney function seriously compromised.
Why are her legs leaking water. I fear organ failure, we know it has been coming but is it here? Am I being to over dramatic or do I need to prepare myself.
Does anyone know what is happening?
