 More on Chelsea
I forgot to mention, the kidney failure isnt the only health issue. She also has bad hip joints, arthritic and in cold weather has problems with mobility, and a small heart murmur and hypertension. Any medication for her hips is not recommended due to the med going thru the kidneys for filtering purposes. She was put on a heart med, but it sedated her too much, she slept all day, and just recently was put on a med for hypertension, but since this recent issue came up with her kidneys, vomiting and diaharria, the med was stopped temporarily.
With all of these chronic health issues, it is fair to do comfort care for her? I am so concerned, and I need to make the best decision for her.
Again, I know many of you have gone thru this dilemna, and I would appreciate your thoughts and advice.
Thanks in advance,
