Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / February 2005New Mom Update
Tonight I found out that Mom has VRE which is Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci. This is the second time she has had this. It's another UTI for her. She is very swollen and I'm worried about sepsis and or kidney failure. They haven't done a WBC count since Jan 26th but are getting one tonight. That will tell us more. I'm really getting more worried now that maybe this is it. I can handle it if she dies, I know it would be better than how she is now. Mom has been sleeping since Friday now. She opens her eyes when you talk to her but only answers simple almost rote answers and goes back to sleep. More tomorrow. DianeW Diane, you and your mom are in my thoughts and prayers. Janet N.

Yes, they are in my prayers and Diane is finding strength she did not know she had. All that Cocci stuff but she knows what to do and is doing well. Harv Diane, I am so sorry about your mom. Do you mean from the vancomycin medication. If so that med shouldn't be allowed to be on the market. it ruined my life. i lost my equilibrim and still dont have it back after about 10 yrs. i also got lichens planis and suffered for almost 2 yrs scratching and bleeding. i have the pigment out of my skin from it. my skin is all messed up. i could write a book about vanco. I feel so sorry for you and your family. God Bless you and i will pray for the best. audie audie, this is diane c here. i'm sorry for what you went through with vancomycin, but i don't think that's what diane w meant was causing a problem with her mom. and right now, vanco seems to be saving my boyfriend's life. i hope he doesn't have those problems with it. it's like all the meds--cost and benefit. diane ((((((((((DianeW & Mom))))))))))))) may it all work out for the best.  SignatureNann remove the Gator cheer to email me Simply the thing I am shall make me live --- William Shakespeare Prayers continue for you both. As Harv says often, He will be done...

But at any rate, Mom is being discharges as I type. Going to meet her at the nursing home and make sure they have all the correct meds and orders in place. Will rant tomorrow about "Medicare Review" and patient care. > Yes, all legal paperword and the DNR in place.
