Medical student here. You were so unlucky. Not only did you get a very rare disease, but of those patients who contract it, only a small percentage get an advanced version of it called Weils disease, which is what you had (liver inflammation, blood platelets are low, etc). About 5-15% die from it, if they do not receive treatment. Glad to see you better!

[@thedarkphoenix1640]

Is her disease curable? Is she gonna have to live with it forever!?

[@Sam-mh4sb]

​@@DandyBeingTandi Leptospirosis is actually caused by a bacteria that is corkscrew shape. It's luckily easily (somewhat) treatable by strong antibiotics. It responds really well and then it's just recovering from the damage done. Luckily, it sounds like only her liver and not her kidneys were affected and the liver regenerates really well. I also got Lepto earlier this year so beyond working in the veterinary field, I got very intimate with how to deal with it in a human.

[@candicecart9786]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 only 5-15% die if untreated (meaning up to 95% of ppl without meds get over it on their own- I assume the ones that die have weakened immune systems)... almost died 😵 but still went in the ocean, drank alcohol, etc 🤣

[@Sam-mh4sb]

Candice Cart Not exactly. If you don’t get treated you’re looking at kidney damage and possibly more. I was hospitalized for meningitis, which is considered life threatening immediately and can lead to permanent brain damage. It’s listed as one of the symptoms of leptospirosis. In the veterinary industry it’s unfortunately usually a death sentence because treatments like dialysis are needed but not easily available. Really the key is that Leptospirosis crosses into severe and dangerous quickly. It’s not a minor bacteria and it doesn’t go away on its own. It just crosses into a more serious stage.

[@taevonwilliams9797]

wow that's crazy. I find facts like that really interesting because my sister worked as a nurse in the army.

The ER room was full of pregnant women, children and elderly people and my husband was covered in open blisters but the triage people refused to put us in an isolation room or to wheel ou a gurney for him to lay down. I had to go and tell people to get away from us because my husband was infectious.

I truly hope Caitlin (or an advocate on her behalf), files a complaint with the hospital and this is used as a teaching opportunity. Very often the higher-ups at hospitals WILL take action and investigate to find out what caused this and how it can be changed in the future. There will absolutely be a papertrail. She's so very lucky her mother was able to bring her home and be treated.

[@Maxwell_Jay]

Actually, specialized tests (such as what I'm sure was a PCR to test for Dengue) need to be sent out of the hospital to outside labs. Hospitals just dont have the equipment to run those tests. The time line is due to how long it takes for the specimen to be processed, sent out, and then run at the specialized labs (probably a mayo lab). Source: I work in a hospital lab.

[@hilmasjolund]

Probably the lab may be far away but my test for dengue fever took no longer than a day, I think in about 6 hours it was done. Got sepsis in Cambodia and I guess my test was a priority because of how sick I was but 7 days?? That seem extreme

[@AnotherMADCreation]

@@hilmasjolund srsly, a week is standard for non routine PCR tests and the like. They generally take at least a day to get even get packaged for shipment to the testing facility, another day to get there, another day to be unpacked, another day to be tested, another day for any reflex testing, and then a final day to be resulted and released to the original lab. That's 5 days. So, 7 is a reasonable estimate. Source? I was someone who prepared, packaged, and shipped specialized testing like that. Also, where were you tested for dengue? Cause getting that done in my area would take longer vs an area where it's actually a known risk.

[@hilmasjolund]

Marcia D I got tested in Cambodia and I think the lab was a few blocks away cause some guy picked up the tests and walked somewhere with it. I got tested for dengue and the yellow fever and malaria etc because I had been hiking around for two weeks in places where you can catch that kind of diseases, they where extremely quick I’ll admit that. In Sweden where I live it probably also would have gone a week for results. Im assuming they are more used to those tests in Cambodia because the risk is quite high

Your an EXTREMELY lucky girl Caitlin. My father had leptospirosis (also known as Wheels Disease here in Australia) he was in his late 40’s and about 110-120kgs and pretty healthy and fit. He got it by pig hunting in sugar cane and getting cuts on his legs and feet. He got all the symptoms that you did, but he didn’t go to a doctor as soon as you. He ended up in hospital on life support, and went from 110-120kgs to about 65kgs, and his whole body literally went Simpson’s yellow from his liver shutting down. Our local hospital got a emergency helicopter to fly a specialist in to take him to a major hospital and as soon as he took one look at dad he said he’d probably be dead before they got there. A couple days later the lady who was looking after me and my brother (dad was a single parent) got a call the hospital to bring us in to say goodbye as they were sure dad was going to die. They even got a priest in to give him his last rights. He ended up pulling through thankfully. Thank your lucky stars hun, and best wishes for your recovery

I got sick in February so I don't know how she taught me kindergarden-gr3 in such a short period... AND I PASSED. Crazy! I remember being at home and it was like a very bad flu.

Public service announcement: Caitlin and all else PLEASE like this. Lepto is WELL KNOWN and your dogs and other animals can get it. I’ve been in the veterinary field and we VACCINATE our animals for lepto. It’s a zoonotic disease, meaning we can get it too. And we can get it from our pets if it came down to it. If your dogs have access to pond/lake/etc water - or have access to rats or mice, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE vaccinate your animals for lepto. I know a vet student that was helping on a farm and got lepto - she was in the hospital for a long time... graduated late... and almost died as well. I just wanted to share this because as medical professionals, we make mistakes. It happens. Unfortunately, we are human. But doing what you can to prevent the disease in the first place is just about the best solution we got

[@brookejohnson6979]

Literally sat through the whole video and then she said lepto..... I need all of my clients who decline the lepto vaccine for their dogs to watch this.

[@mykenziebug1]

How often do you need to get the vaccine administered for it to be effective? We got our pup at 4 months and were doing great on vaccines...until our finances took a huge hit. We got her to more rounds of shots when we could afford it. So all in all she's had 5 rounds and she's one year old

[@rdc8290]

mykenziebug1 dogs need to be at least 8 weeks before getting vaccines - if not they’re useless and you have to start over. I think just about all vaccines you get have to be boostered. Rabies, lepto, DHPP, and parvo. You get one then a month later you get another. After that they are covered until they’re due again - usually 1 to 3 years depending on which formula you got. Talk to your vet and they’ll get it figured out for you :)

@@kutie216 Uh no its not ALWAYS expensive. I had an injury. Something that was legit the companies fault. Caused me to have to medically withdrawl from college and spent the next 2 YEARS in and out of doctors. When you sue a company. Most lawyers do it free of cost unless you win, once you win, you owe them a percentage of your money that you win. That is something to discuss. But you dont even claim your settlement on taxes, at least not in the state involving my accident, which is PA. So actually she CAN sue and it not cost thousands prior.
