Over the past weekend I came down with a very nasty infection the effected my kidneys. It has been 4 days since I started the antibiotics and I am still not 100%. More like a sore 70%, here is the kicker i’m 33 and kidney infections are pretty rare at my age. So how did I get it? Know one knows; not even the doctor that worked on me. So this struck a question in my mind.

If in the case of an emergency what would you do if you were struck with a kidney infection?
I seriously knocked me out for 3 days.

The Center of Disease Control has trainings that cover things like

• Bioterrorism
  Anthrax, botulism, plague, smallpox, tularemia, viral hemorraghic fevers, more…
• Chemical Emergencies
• Radiation Emergencies
• Mass Casualties

Now they may not cover Kidney infections per say, they may be small change compared to some of these others.
They all scare me, A lot!
Lets all do our parts to be prepared in any kind of an emergency
