My husband crashed this afternoon while I was there. They got him back and he on the way to St Thomas’s his kidney has started to fail. He has pneumonia. I am cross at the moment because if he been treated with antibiotics sooner none of this would have happened x

Oh god, bad to worse. Praying all goes well for him. GPs gave a great deal to answer for, I dont know how some of them can sleep at night. Thinking of you and your husband xxxxx P

PS if its a small consolation my brother in law had a kidney removed by keyhole surgery in December 2020 and he's doing really well on the one left. (It was cancer found early).

My dad had a kidney removed because of cancer. He lived a good life afterwards and died from an unrelated cause.

Something similar happened to me a year last October. It was the pneumonia that had me rushed into hospital.The kidney damage was discovered after blood tests. I have been on permanent antibiotics ever since. The culprit was an over active immune system. I hope they sort him out soon.

So sorry to hear this. Sounds as though there has been a lack on someone's part. I had a kidney removed in 2008 and have had nothing adverse happen since (to the extent that I forget I've had it done). All best wishes and hugs.

Best wishes alyvonne. Reluctance on the part of GPS to prescribe antibiotics is all very well but when a patient really needs them it can be disastrous but they don't seem to do enough checks to differentiate between the two. My husband ended up with pneumonia a couple of years ago because the GP kept saying it was just a virus that would pass. It wasn't and it didn't. I hope your husband gets the treatment he needs.

Thinking of you both Alyvonne and wishing your husband a full recovery. So stressful for you and as you say he should have had those antibiotics earlier. St Thomas’ is a great hospital so he is in good hands. Jax🐶x
