Can Antibiotics Help Kidneys To Function Normally Again?

MY CLOSE FRIEND JUST HAD CATRACK SURGERY, WENT HOME AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. SHE STARTED FEELING AWFUL AND WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL, SHE NOW HAS A STAF INFECTION AND IS HAVING AWFUL COMPLICATIONS. HER KIDNEY S ARE NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THE ANTIOBOTIC THEY HAD HER ON IS NOT WORKING. SHE WAS ADMITTED TO ANOTHER HOSPITAL THIS MORNING. THEY CHANGED ANTOBOTICS AND SHE SEEMS A LITTLE BETTER. IS THERE A CHANGE SHE WILL NOT GET THROUGH THIS. THANKS

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welvome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can assure that antibiotics can take of urinary infection.
But,unless you can details of present level of kidney function ( urea,creatinine),her ultrasound scan, if done,and urine output with sodium and potassium levels, it's very difficult to opine.
It's best if you can send all the reports (latest), directly to me, and i can give you an expert opinion.
