My Uncle’s kidney failure


by: J. Sams on Tue, Oct 16 2007

My Uncle went into the Hospital for a simple surgery and my Aunt told everyone he could not have dye for test for it would cause kidney failure and his Docter stressed that and so she told everyone and showed it in writing.
They did exrays and behold his kidneys started shutting down and he was in ICU for two months and when she received billing for their insurance it showed that dye was used and she questioned and they said, it was not on file….
Than a small spot was found in one lung and they recomended surgery and this was before complete shut down of kidney and they knew of dye..going to be used for test…
He lived on dyalist and ventilator and ended upon feeding tube and two months in ICU and than Hospice and he passed away….
I just wanted others too stress in every way and when your loved one goes for test, like my Aunt said, It was all uncalled for…..
