IF this really happened I wonder if it was the methotrexate that caused it. Both are a side effect from methotrexate.

My sister died from pancreatic cancer. It shut down her digestive system and she essentially starved to death.
Its a horrible way to go, and I wish it on no one.

that said.
This little story leaves me very skeptical.
Three terrible conditions, all at once and she spends a mere 4 days in the hospital?

Pam if you are going to lie please work a little harder on the details. The internet is a big place. People from everywhere read your words, not just CC and DU. People have family members who have suffered from what you claim -- they know what happens.

Renal failure alone would mean a hell of a lot more than four days.  Just sayin.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

I had renal failure when my liver failed waiting for my liver transplant..  I can tell you this , she would have been so drugged up she would not remember what tv channels they had .. they would have had her on a morphine pump and coming in every few hours to give her a shot in her arm ( cant do it via iv ) that would have tried to jump start her kidney..

Sooo frankly i call bullshit

The hospitals have their own channel now.  It's like the hotel channel that shows the weather and important stuff like the ice machine, only it airs "You and Your Pregnant Vagina" twice an hour.

When I worked as an overnight cashier at Walmart, the bank at the front left their TV on, usually tuned to HSN or CNN.

Nancy Grace, 5-6 times a night, every freaking night!  (This was back in 2008, when the Texas polygamy case was going on.)  The ONLY time she wasn't on, I was either at "lunch", or on break.   :argh:

I haven't watched her since then, have no plans to ever watch her or her show again.

The last time I was in (end of January of this year), there was a TV in the pre-op room for me to stay somewhat 'entertained.'  FNC was not one of the choices.  ESPN was.  So was CNN.  I kept it on ESPN.

I think on page 1,756,231 of the affordable care act there is a requirement that all hospitals have 200 cannel cable available and 24" flat screens at the bedside.  Section f on that page bans fox news also. 
You see, I don't care you how feel.  I really don't.  More importantly, neither does anyone else.  Only about 200 people on a planet of 7 billion actually care about your feelings, and that's if you're lucky.  The sooner you grasp this lesson, the better off you will be.  And since almost no one gives a damn what you do, say, think, or feel, appealing to your feelings when you encounter differences of opinion is not only illogical, but useless.

They have televisions in hospitals now?  Shit fire!

A decade ago I was in the hospital for 10 days.  They wouldn't even let me have my cell phone, and even if there was a TV, I was so out of it most of the time I didn't give a shit.

Having your guts ripped open and put back together with 36 staples will have that effect.

I was in the hospital for 2 months waiting to deliver my daughter.  I loved it frankly.  It was a new hospital and I was on the anti-partum wing.  Everything was spa like, huge rooms, all the food I wanted, and a huge stone bathroom.  I loved it!   :yahoo:  Then the baby had to come and ruin it all and get me sent back home :rant:

and about the tv, I got hooked on Jersey Shore  :panic:

freaked out.  No wonder hospital charges are so high (I have no idea what they currently are, although I suspect the basic bed-and-board daily fee is at least $500); all these "special services" have to be subsidized somehow.
I think the average payment to the insurance company is around $1000-2000 a night.  If you're paying out of pocket, it's probably higher.

It's highway robbery.

For my 2 months in I got a bill for $129k.  Insurance paid the hospital $46k
For my daughter's 9 days in the NICU they billed me $50k and insurance paid them $12k

Nancy is not so aptly named, at least her surname.

Blue Cross pays very little of what the hospital bills my insurance company.

Most hopsitals bill for a semi private room, when in fact they only have private. (which I like better)

Even when I was in ICU after my stroke the hospital was paid around $500 a day. For all they had going on, I felt it was worth the price.

Renal failure alone would mean a hell of a lot more than four days.  Just sayin.

Acute Renal Failure can be relative mild, especially if it is brought on by something like dehydration that can be easily reversed.  In some cases it sounds much worse than it is, in others, it is truly awful.  However, the fact that she claims to have been completely out of it for two days, and then concerned about television programs is what raises my eyebrows, unless she was simply drugged up on pain meds.
