Hi @ray666 -
First, despite the content of your post, I am very glad you’re back! For reasons non- health related, my recent schedule has only allowed me few windows of time to contribute here and sometimes can only skim the headlines. But always in the back of my mind, I’ve wondered “Where’s Ray?” I had hoped your partner had managed to get you out on long hikes, or a lengthy world cruise and that you took a vacation from your phone (as unlikely that last part sounds) I am sorry to learn that it’s the nagging fear I had, that you may have had a set-back.
I have no experience with sepsis, but my whole sudden PN coincided with the discovery of severe infection (kidney/UTI) that got me hospitalized and took everything away from my legs. I just advise you to do every single leg exercises you can while being grounded. You’ve prided yourself on having leg strength throughout your PN, and without it, we would never be surviving the awful PN wobbliness and balance obstacles we endure. I know I’m preaching to the choir - work with your doctor on making sure the necessary rest is accompanied with maximal PT!
I’m thinking of you dear buddy, and your partner, that you get this battle behind and restored back to your old self, which you’ll appreciate even more. Now that you’ve gotten your faculties back, I’m sure you use some of your time researching while on your butt and find energy. Some antibiotics are friendlier to folks with PN vs others. Make sure your Neuro reviews your meds for input.
Welcome back, and as @njed always tells us, Keep Moving (as much as doc allows)!
