Most recent and reliable report I have is it was not a stroke, but rather very low electrolytes. A different hospital seems to have a better grasp of what her needs are.... So I took that as a positive development.

Absolutely correct Ross. Thanks. I think we may be out of the woods.
Docs told me that her sodium and potassium livels were so low they were shocked that she was still conscious. |

Good news! One would think our health care system would be getting better, but that is NOT our own experience from issues we have experienced in missed or erroneous diagnosis.

Landmark Hospital misdiagnosed her condition TWICE. They actually said she had an heart issue which, as it turns out, is totally incorrect. |

One more on the way too long lists of misdiagnoses I am all to familiar with. Not for nothing, but sometimes I think over a certain perceived age / state of health and just maybe they don't seem to care or put in the time needed.

Diagnosis
My wife has been a RN in the emergency room of our local hospital for over 40 years. In that time I have met many doctors. For some reason because they have the letters MD behind their name we the public tend to believe that they are infallible I assure you they are not! They pass boards to become an MD and if they have a good memory they can pass with the correct answers. This however does not guarantee that their ability to use diagnostic science is up to par! Some are great, some are good, some just plain suck! As is the case with many other professions! Believe your own intuition.

Small improvemnt today, specifically this afternoon. Looks like a week in the hospital and then rehab facility or visiting nurses and PT.
We are praying there is no permanent brain impairment. She was more lucid this afternoon but quite far from when she was normal. |

Having been there, although probably not as severely, the symptoms resemble a mild stroke or TIA. Loss of balance particularly.
Another common symptom is arrhythmia which may be why there was a cardiac event misdiagnosis. |

Glad she's recovering. Honestly I'd go see my vet before I'd go to landmark

Me too Joe. I had a major MI back in the 90s and the ER at Landmark Doc told me I had indigestion. Jeanne had me transferred to RIH where they operated on me 4 hours later Full occulusion of the RCA. |

I have too many missed conclusions in my family
not ggoing there .
But to this day ..I still have trouble trying to understand how Denis made it as far as he did .
that was the only place denis went ......... His wife worked there until after she retired .....then they hired her back as a consultant for big money
Denis final one was when his daughter [kinda made him go to mass general
His daughter is a highly paid surgeon ,
He wasn,t there long .but came home to Hospice .. the day he got home he called me an told me I better get to this house .........two days later he was gone ><><
My wife would have NEVER lasted 7 years [don,t know if the was good or bad] but she fought for herself .....I was at some of her consulation s with THE doctors ........... damn I though I caught hell >< the rest I,ll keep inside ., when in doubt . do something
|
ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!
MIKE

Cautious optimism this morning. Her Sodium numbers came up 4 points. This is HUGE as they couldn't get them to move for 2 days.
Praying this continues.
