My mother had started having transient pain on a Monday. We thought it may be indigestion. It wasn’t typical chest pain. She is 81 but was a RN until she retired at 70. So she should have a little more aware. Nurses are actually the worst patients. She finally went to the ER last Saturday when she was too weak to get out of bed. The er doctor said that she a heart attack probably around Tuesday. She was 99 percent blocked and she got 3 stents from the groin. She didn’t get the procedure until Tuesday because of concerns about her kidney. 20 years ago she got a kidney transplant and they were concerned that the contrast dye could hurt our donor kidney. They finally decided to go ahead. Now she is in the ICU . Kidneys are not doing well. Bun 68. Creatinine is 4.6 . Poor urine output. BP is too low and she is getting Levophed for that. Also hemoglobin was dropping and she is getting her second liter of blood. They found a hematoma at the groin site. I guess I’m just looking for someone who may have had a similar issue. She is old but she is a fighter. She’s been alert and oriented. When I last saw her she looked good actually. Any advice?
