Florence

Florence Happy with Recovery
Florence was admitted last week.  She is 32 and came in with Headache, hearing loss and loss of movement in her foot.  She unfortunately was HIV positive and her Spinal Tap indicated TB.  After 3 days of TB medications and steroids her headache resolved, her hearing returned to normal and her foot movement has recovered by 75 %.

She will get her CD4 count this week which will dictate when we start her ARV's.  She has 2 bad illnesses but is making an unbelievable recovery.
