I have Alport's Syndrome. My kidneys failed when I was 14 and I was on PD for five years before receiving a kidney transplant from my mother. That kidney failed in 2004 and I've been back on PD ever since. I am undergoing treatment for my high antibodies at Cedars-Sinai medical center. I had a kidney transplant on June 10, 2008. My boyfriend was the donor.

what to do w/little kids while in the hospital

I woke up with a fever last Friday morning of 103 and a blood pressure of 86/47 at 7:50 AM. My husband called our dialysis nurse and she said to call our OB at Duke and go to the emergency room. The OB nurse on call put us on hold for 7 minutes.  My husband hung up before they got back with us and I took 1500 mg of Tylenol and we got in the car and drove to Duke's Emergency Department. At the emergency department my fever had gone down to 101 (about 45 minutes after the Tylenol.) They wheeled me up to the 5th floor birthing center where I was placed in a Triage room at 9:00 AM and given an NST and an IV. I later learned that my body was close to going into septic shock possibly from an infection caused by the new dialsis catheter I got exchanged on Tuesday. The babies heart rate was sustained at over 175 beats per minute. The OB doctor on call decided to section me immediately and I was taken to the operating room. They told my husband to not join me because they were going to use general anesthesia. They decided to use a spinal block instead at the last minute. A nurse ran to get my husband who was not dressed for the OR. He got ready as quick as possible while I was waiting with my abdomen cut open. At 10:36 the baby was pulled out and began to cry before they could get her to the warmer table. We were so happy! My husband stayed with the baby for a few minutes while they took the placenta out. He came back to me and the doctor spent about 20 minutes sewing and stapling me back together. I spent the rest of the day receiving antibiotics and antivirals while they took blood and put it in 6 Bac-T bottles to grow cultures. I am home finally and will post more later.
