Hi everyone! Just wanted to share & give updates on our dad’s procedures.

3 out of these 4 procedures require blood transfusion as his hemoglobin count is registering below normal values

1) IVC filter installed (to prevent pulmonary emobilism due to blood clots), done last Tuesday, 4/20

2) Decompression Fasciotomy (to remove the Pyomyositis which is an infection of the skeletal muscle), done last Wednesday morning, 4/21

3) Emergency Embolectomy (removal of arterial blood clot - ACUTE LIMB ISCHEMIA), done last Wednesday evening 4/21

4) Debridement (procedure to take out the dead skin/muscle/tissue that is causing infection), done on Monday, 4/26
