So not much has changed over the past five days. My heart rate is still fast at ~120 bpm with the occasional a-fib, and the blister is still filling up with fluid daily. I don’t know if the urgent care doctor was supposed to remove the layer of skin but it seems to seal up each time I change the bandage and there’s usually some fluid in the blister. The only sterile syringe I have are for injecting insulin so the needle is extremely thin and the syringe only holds ~30 mL. I can drain 150-200 mL each time I change the bandage. I then spray some disinfectant (made for blisters and ulcers) and apply the antibiotic cream over the blister. I think it’s been infection free since I’m only getting mostly clear fluid, kind of like when my leg was leaking. It may be from the edema in my ankles that I can’t seem to get rid of even though the dialysis center keeps lowering my dry weight.
I have an in-person appointment with the specialist cardiologist Wednesday. Hopefully he can come up with something before recommending the full ablation procedure. I’m tired of the hospital and full anesthesia outaings.
