Sorry to hear things have not panned out for you Jeff, but guess you will have to go and see consultant again if you want to know what they think and suggest. Hopefully it won't take too long to get appointment to sort things out. Christmas is creeping up so it might be a longer wait than normal.Maybe they will be able to remove what ever it is by operation or give stronger drugs for longer if it is inflammation or infection. Fingers crossed for you for a speedy resolution, will be thinking of you and your dad of course, hope he isas well as can be.
Morning Jeff, well the picture does not look rosie but maybe they can improve things for you if nothing else. All you can do for your dad is the best you are able, maybe he has come to that time when he does not want the trouble of going out even to hospital. If your immune system is down you will feel rough, maybe just something for symptom releif would go a long way. Tumeric is good for inflammation might calm it or have you tried all know treatments.??? Once upon a time I was told I was seriously ill but given time I improved I am still ill but manage , you have to be selfish at times and take care of your own needs when the symptoms are bad if only to get respite from the symptoms. I wish you every best wish for at least some releif from caring duties and your illness suffering.
