LYMPHODEMIA

Guest · Guest

MY HUSBAND FELT DIZZY AND HAD A FEVER. HIS LEG FROM HIS TOES UP TO HIS GROIN WAS VERY INFLAMED. HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CELLUTIS. AFTER 4 DAYS AS AN INPATIENT WITH ANTIBIOTIC IVS AND MORPHINE HE WAS RELEASED. A WEEK LATER HIS PAIN AND SWELLING CONTINUED. THE ER GAVE HIM DIFFERENT ANTIBIOTICS AND INSTRUCTED HIM TO SEE A VASCULAR DOCTOR AMD TAKE FLUID PILLS.
THE VASCULAR TOLD HIM HIS CIRCULATION WAS FINE AND HE HAD LYMPHODEMIA. HE WOULD NOT LOOK AT THE ER INSTRUCTIONS AND SAID THERE IS NO CURE, FLUID PILLS WOULD NOT HELP. HE WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT. HE PRESCRIBED A BOOT TO HELP WITH CIRCULATION. HE STILL HAS PAIN ALTHOUGH THE VASCULAR SAID THIS DOES NOT CAUSE PAIN.
IS THERE ANY INFO OR SUGGESTIONS YOU CAN GIVE. HIS JOB REQUIRES HIM TO BE ON HIS FEET FOR HOURS AT A TIME AND HE IS HAVING MUCH DIFFICULTY.

THANK YOU
