Hospital mistake, the patient is dying.

I think you are talking about pus but not fuss. Pus results due to the process of inflammatory process since white blood cells are sent to an infected area to try and fight off the infection. I guess whether your sister in law is to be blamed or not, depends on whether she is the one you said she wanted to go home. If not, then I would blame the doctors or whoever who sent her home. I think it would have been better if she would have stayed in hospital longer for further observation. Patient with diabetes are prone to infection due problem with their immunity and tend to take longer to heal unlike other people.

I am sorry to hear that. I my country there are good hospitals, and bad hospitals, cathegorized on districts. If you live in a good hospital district and you have a brain tumor you have big chances of getting out alive of that hospital. But if you have the bad luck of living in a bad hospital district, and you have an emergency, like a woman is pregnant, or something ordinary, but still urgent, you can die. The difference between is very big, and without any particular reason. I hope your wife's sister get's better.

Its a shame, the doctors should be more careful especially with high blood sugar patients. The high sugar count itself can lead to various other problems and surgeries, open wounds do not heal quickly enough, they is also a risk of Glaucoma. My husbands dad returned home from a by-pass after 5 days in hospital. We still think it was a short duration, but he did have the best specialist in the country working on him.

Mistakes could happen at the hospital but its occurance is very rare. Choosing hospitals is very important before deciding on where one want to be hospitalized.

I am sorry to hear that your sister-in-law is not doing well. I hope that she gets better soon. I am a little confused about why you think that the infection is the doctor's fault, though. Unfortunately, infections are common after surgery, especially invasive surgery. It does not mean that the doctor, hospital or even patient did anything wrong including caring for the wound ... sometimes even when the wound is cared for exactly as instructed an infection can occur.

Hi there prudh, I think that is just sad, i hope she gets better soon and the proper people be responsible for any mistakes so that you don't pay for what they caused, and it is pus not fuss fuss means a commotion, pus is the yellowish discharge on an infected side.
