Guest guest Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Hi everyone, I just got home from the hospital where I had to leave my hubby. He has pnuemonia. He is also a diabetic and an asthmatic. He has had the flu all week. The cough was getting pretty bad and after me nagging him he finally relented and I took him to the ER. Well were were there for four hours, they checked and rechecked his potassium levels!!!!! They were high, and could cause a problem in the electrical impulse in 's heart. The Doctor said it is a good thing that he came in because this would have been a silent killer. We went in originally because he had a high fever and his cough is pretty bad. With is Asthema I worry about his lungs. Everyone If you get this flu, it starts with a headache, and a sorethroat, then of course the muscles cramps. But if you have any particularly sore spot on your body IT WILL GO TO THAT WEAKNESS IN YOUR BODY. just preparing you......wash your hands a billion times too :-) Love and hugs , Nan __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
