Hello.
Since I last posted its now been confirmed macular degeneration has started
the right eye has a lot of scar tissue, also CNS involvement
Been put on Rituximab as the replacement of Humira.
Sadly I contracted covid just days after the infusion .
Things finally reach an emergency covid had cleared but felt even worse
was lying on the bed the next thing I had mum looking down screaming to wake up
I had fallen off the bed my neck hit the ottoman 999 had been called
given the situation they decided i had to be moved
after 3 liters of oxygen my saturation level was 90 %
temp 38.6
BP 179/110
having had sepsis 3 times she did the test and it indicated Sepsis on the scale of 6.
taken to the new unit at the hospital just half a mile away and it happened again
even with all the evidence the doctor had looked at the old notes and orders
NO IV, Treated with utter contemp..
my new consultant and written to them to state no med change until
we see how the new plan goes.. this one stopped everything.
I was so out of it I had no idea. For days no Thalidomide
or core drugs that stop those symptoms that are heck to treat
Genital ulcers back, my abdomen wound is open
Turned out its Flu. So just after clearing covid this happened
I just need advice please, It never inspires confidence when they say "Behcet's what's that"
in all honesty the NHS website which most look at that ropey.
He suggested my 60 MG of prednisone was causing me to be psychotic
I could barely speak he pulled the pillow from my head by now the neck had swollen and I passed out it was like as a child being on a roundabout then jumping off
this kept happening if I turned my neck to the right.
The nurses were amazing they admitted never heard of Bes but all went to read up on it
the level of care I had from them was 10/10.
They call us "professional patients" we know what that means = trying to be Doctors
but I made a rule long ago I will only talk about symptoms they need to take action on.
been given tami flu and its helping but my poo is now jet black like tar.
I cannot believe he took it on himself to just stop everything
cutting steroids alone is...
So the reason for this post, how can i show these people something that gives guidance
as the Behcets card was actually throw with utter distain by one of the previous visits.
They have all the updated files something my late father said would not make a difference
sorry if this sounds OTT but what happened was the worst yet for me I really thought I was dying
it was the 20 minutes totally blacked out was a new one the floor around me was just a puddle of urine.
Sorry if this isnt making sense the good news the non emergency plans are working
getting the Thalidomide every 3 months and as my new consultant wants something done like the infusions and scans they are.
The problem is 999 admissions its actually getting worse.
What i have learned even if you are jabbed for this years Flu it appears a lot of people
are very ill with it, People are saying they have this virus and the consultant told me when they are tested its flu they hospital is packed with patients with it.
