Central Line infection #1 2015

Day #1 I am going to blog everyday of my infection. By infection I mean in my central line in my left chest used to administer my Veletri medication used to control my PH 24/7.  At the end of April my central line began to get red and sore so I had my PH specialist look at it.  She cultured the site and had me begin taking oral antibiotics.  After 2 weeks of the antibiotics the site showed no change and began oozing puss and aching.  So tomorrow morning I am calling my PH specialist and she will admit me to the U of M hospital for IV antibiotics and a series of blood and site cultures.

Feeling great!

The next month is sooooo busy. I am bowling in the Michigan State tournament in Canton, Mi and the weekend following that tournament I am bowling the Muskegon Tournament. I am excited.

I started Flolan in the hospital at the  University Of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI. I was admitted in the hospital for 5 days as my doctor increased the Flolan to a therapeutic dose.  It was the most frightening experience ever.       I was 23 years old, I had a 19 month old daughter and a boyfriend of a year.  I was told to get my affairs with my daughter and my life in order because my PH was so severe.  I was so sick that I was blue all the time, I couldn't walk around with out getting dizz...
