Randi Free Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 You may remember I wrote about my 23 year old daughter being in the hospital with abscesses since last Thursday. Today they decided that surgery is needed to get rid of them. She has been on antibiotics for 9 days, 6 of them in the hospital on I.V. antibiotics. They drain 5 of the 15 abscesses and pack them every day while she screams in pain. They will give her general anesthesia tomorrow and expect her to be in the operating room about 1 to 2 hours. I will talk with the anesthesiologist tomorrow (surgery at 7:30 am mountain time) but I don't know what special concerns a POTS patient might have? Any insight?Randi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
