Still in hospital

Well, I went into the hospital on Mon. For a second lumbar fusion to fix the one done 1 year ago. This time it will be preformed anterior. I was suppose to be home today, but my BPM was 120 to 140 and I am running a fever. Temp. changes from 99 -
To 103. All test came back normal except I am anemic. They want to decrees my heart and get fever under control. They have no clue as to why it’s happening. They did ask if I am having anxiety issues. The PT Tolkien me I my have tachycardia and explained it to me. I want to know if anyone had such an experience.

I am sorry this is happening. I had a hestrctomy many years ago and had trouble after the surgery and the doctor said it was do to the lupus. I hope you are better soon and can return home.

Bless your heart! My doctor puts me in Surgical ICU after my major surgeries because of my SLE Lupus. My body takes forever to heal and they have to watch me closely.

Prayers for comfort and healing are with you!
