Hubbys doctors want him to go to the ER to be evaluated this morning. He had an UTI back in December which caused him to hallucinate and be confused. He is acting the same now. Never a dull moment!

I am so sorry. I hope everything is ok.
Oh, I'm sorry. I hope he's going to be OK.
I am so sorry. UTIs can wreak havoc on us as we get older.
It's true. My mom had a tough time with those as she got older.
Thinking of you,

. I hope all will be okay with your hubby. 
Hoping that everything is alright with your hubs. My MIL had an awful time with UTI and hallucination/delirium.

yeah like they all said , i hope he will be alright
My Gram got so they knew those were coming on by her behavior. It always got better once she got treated. I hope everything there went smoothly. It's never a fun place unless your there to see a baby born!- Thread Starter Thread Starter

It isn’t a uti. He has pneumonia. Of course they admitted him.
Oh, no.

I’m so sorry.
Pneumonia ugh! Had it a few years ago, never want to get it again. Hope he feels better soon.

The stupid thing is he isn’t coughing, has no fever and doesn’t really feel bad. The only thing is he is confused and hallucinating.
That is a bit odd but maybe it can present that way too.

Does he have a build up of fluid in the lining of his lungs or does he have an elevated WBC which could be a sign of infection?
Is "Walking Pneumonia" a possibility? I thought you had symptoms with that. Or maybe his body just isn't reacting like you'd expect to things because of his transplant and treatments. 
I hope he's better and can come home soon!!

Good thing you got him in! Walking pneumonia is a killer.

Lots of treatments out there so we’ll just count on one clearing it up quickly. I’m so sorry you are both having to go through this. If he has to hallucinate, I hope it’s something good, like a beautiful day or eating something yummy.

cloudy on X-ray. His white count doesn’t indicate infection.
No his hallucinations are unpleasant. Being held hostage, the nurses trying to poison him, things like that.
Oh I am so sorry.. My mom, who had a form of dementia, would really hallucinate when she had a UTI.
As far as pneumonia: I am trying to recover from it. I never went to the hospital, but kind of wish I did, as I am having a hard time recovering. I stayed home because no one would medicate Geoffrey. sigh..
I wish hubby a fast recovery.
