I Was Administered In Hospital Due To Complications Of Kidney Failure. What Is Next ?
I had a triple bypass in July of 2009, I healed from my heart surgery, after my release from the hospital I returned home,I was administered back to the hospital only three weeks later due to complications of kidney failure. Let me also add,I have no memory of any of this. I am on Dialysis three days of the week, while on a restricted fluid intake I am only urinating 1/2 oz. per day. This is only one of many concerns I have. Open heart surgery is performed thousands a time a day, I was under the impression I was to feel better but to my disappointment it has gone to kidney failure to loss of memory, blood transfusions every week, gasping for air, ect... What next ? Or maybe I don t even want to go into that.

Have you talked to your doctor about, Trasylol. This is administered sometimes during surgery and is known for causing many serious complications some of which you are describing.
