Update on my daughter and her surgery of 5/22. 13 hours in surgery with complications. She is in MICUl. Social Security should not deny her anymore. She is still vomiting and on Dilaudid, flat on her back. When they changed her dressings and turned her, she had a blinding headache and began vomiting again. Her heart rate decreases frequently and then returns to normal. Her surgery involved complications of holes in the dura, which had to be repaired before the rest of the surgery could be completed. She has rods and screws. I am so worried about her. After reading some comments, I am really worried. We understood that her quality of life would change. Today, she called me and asked for help and that her friends contact her. She needs lots of prayer. She is scared, because of complications of spinal fluid leakage. She is flat on her back.
Any suggestions or locations where I can get more information?View Thread
