Everything was going well until October 28 when I had two bleeding episodes through the nose and blood clots.
I call the office on October 29 left message and Joann the office manager calls me back and said to come in on Monday October 30, 2023, Dr. Brodner did a drainage, cleanup of the area and packing of the nose.
November 1, 2, 2023 another episode of bleeding and blood clots, Dr. did a drainage again for the 2nd and 3rd time and packing of the nose on both days. The Dr. said he can't find where the bleeding is coming from so, he's sending me to Delay Medical Center to check and see where the bleeding is coming from and to perform an Embolization. I was admitted on November 2, 2023, so they can do an Embolization to stop the bleeding. Dr. Dennys Reyes Neurologist perform the surgery on November 3, 2023. After the surgery I could not open my left eye, they had to do a flushing, but it took a while before I can open my eye to this day, I still feel there's something in my eye. During my stay at the Hospital, I was given steroids in my I.V and insulin shots for my diabetes. I went home Saturday November 4, 2023. The morning of November 6, 2023, everything was looking good, but I woke up with sores all over my mouth so painful I could hardly swallow plus my head and ears still hurt. I called the office of the ENT Dr. Brodner who did my sinus surgery and he sent in a prescription for mouth wash to my Walgreen Pharmacy. All the mouth wash did was numb the area it didn't take care of the sores. Right after I spoke to the Dr. I had a chunk of blood come up my mouth? November 7, 2023, I had a little nosebleed. Later that morning chunk of black stuff came out my right nostril.
I also developed a rash on my left cheek that hurts like hell, I think it was from the steroids that I was given at the hospital. Friday November 10, 2023, I passed out at home and my husband brought me to Wellington Regional Hospital Emergency. They admitted me to monitor my condition and perform several tests and blood work. November 11, 2023, Dr. Antoinette Davis @ Wellington Regional Medical Center came in to give me results of some of the tests, scan of the head is ok, sonogram of my neck and the throat was check for the blood flow to the head is ok, my triglycerides potassium where low, sugar has been up and down. I mention to Dr. Antoinette Davis that I was having pain in my mouth, and she said that it might be the steroids or the tube they put down my throat during the anesthesia at Delray Medical Center during my Embolization. She then looked at my mouth and diagnose it as Oral Thrush, I told her it's all over my upper mouth and down my throat which was very painful and I could hardly swallow so Dr. Davis prescribes a few antibiotics starting November 11, 2023, and the sores started to feel better. They kept me until November 12, 2023, in order to monitor me. While at Wellington Regional, I was given Tylenol every four hours for the headaches and the Magic mouth wash for the Oral Thrush. I was also given insulin shots because my diabetes numbers were up and down. November 12, 2023, I was release from the Wellington Regional Hospital at 2pm. I was given a Magic Mouth Wash to take home. Dr. Antoinette Davis also prescribed two antibiotics for the infection I had in my mouth. November 17, I had an appointment with Dr. Dennys Reyes for a follow up after the Embolization surgery. Dr. did a mini physical and said everything is looking good. During my visit to Dr. Reyes, I started to cough up dark red blood and small amounts of blood clots and it's been going on for several days. He said he has no idea why. November 20, 2023, I had an appointment with Dr. Brodner the ENT for a follow up. Dr. did a drainage and clean up the area again and mention everything is looking good, it was very painful. Dr. gave me an antibiotic for the Oral Thrush and fungus I have in my mouth. He also did a test culture and it to the lab. November 21, 2023, I woke up and all was well in the morning. I had some discharge one hour later and had blood clots coming out in my left nostril. As of November 22, 2023, pain on and off throughout the day and night but no nose bleeds and no blood clots. Still taking Tylenol and Ibuprofen for pain. I went back on my aspirin 81mg and since then I haven't had any nose bleeds or blood clots. Ever since my sinus surgery I've had nothing but nose bleeds and blood clots plus pain and discomfort in my head, nose, teeth and jaw. Neither Dr. can figure out why I had so much bleeding of the nose and blood clots, which I think is ridiculous. I would never go back to this Dr., too scary. read more
