How long do I have before I collapse from this medical condition? What can happen If it goes untreated?

I have an abdominal infection called Psudomonas, I have had 3 surguries to try and romve it, as well as alot of oral antibiotics, nothing has worked so far, I am also a diabetic, I am currently not on any of my medications, I have no insurance, and cant afford it, because I am raising two children.
I have to work long hours, with little or no time off, and I am in a stressfull job.
Ive tried getting state funding to help with medical care and have been turned down repeatedly.
How long can I keep going untill something really bad happens?
what are the consequences of leaving this untreated?
Is there any help out there for a working family man?
I do change the dressing at the wound location daily (I have to, the wound oozes a greenish puss)
I really need some help, I fear this will kill me if I cannot get it taken care of

Pseudomans aeruginosa is a very serious bacteria. The biggest problem with it is that is has built up resistance to a wide variety of antibiotics on the market. Typically the best antibiotics for treating it are IV only: Ceftazidime and Zosyn are the best in my personal experience. The problem is these are quite expensive. If you're to a phase now of local wound care and the infection is limited to a wound on the abdominal wall and systemic antibiotics are not required, then this is what you'll need to do.

Pseudomonas, for some reason, has failed to build up a resistance to acetic acid (vinegar). What you should do is get sterile water irrigation from your doctor or pharmacy and mix in a quarter or half part vinegar to the water. Do a wet-to-dry dressing of sterile gauze soaked in this solution twice a day. This can help eliminate the infection.

Your wound will likely not heal well until you get your glucose under control. You need to control your diabetes no matter what the cost of your medication or supplies.

You have a very serious medical problem. I would not leave this untreated. If you keep going with an active infection, this can spread to deeper tissue layers or the abdominal cavity, you could get septic, and this could kill you. See your doctor, get your diabetes under control, and perform rigorous local wound care and you can beat this. Good luck to you.

Hey, calm down first, stop by a local greenhouse and pick up some aloe vera plant. Break a slip of the plant off and open it and put the plant on your wound and cover...u will be healed quick.
Sounds like u could use some B vitamins and also C vitamins to heal quick. U can buy them cheap at your local dollar store.

You can buy a cream called Zinc Oxide, you put it on the wound and keep it covered, change the dressing as needed, this particular cream works wonders with diabetics, You can buy this at CVS or Walgreens and it's near the burn treatments and stuff. I recommend this strongly.

you need help your doctors can help with particial benefits these places are so bad ,but you my friend need help give your doctor or doctors a call and talk to them they also hold the key to getting help......good luck my friend luv kara

Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other members of this group of gram-negative bacilli are opportunistic pathogens that frequently cause hospital-acquired infections, particularly in ventilator patients, burn patients, and those with chronic debility. Many sites can be infected, and infection is usually severe. Diagnosis is by culture. Antibiotic choice varies with the pathogen and must be guided by sensitivity studies because resistance is common.
Please see the web pages for more details on Pseudomonas.

You are absolutely right to be worried. Most pseudomonas infections can be successfully treated with a combined treatment of antibiotics and/or surgery. In immunocompromised persons, however, P. aeruginosa infections have a high mortality rate, particularly following bacteremia or infections of the lower lung. Mortality rates range from 15 to 20% of patients with severe ear infections to 89% of patients with infections of the left side of the heart.
You NEED to try harder to get this fixed. I realize you have a job and a life, but this is very serious, as I am sure you know.

My mother had lupus, and she ended up with an abdominal infection, she ended up getting a septic infection (blood), and she passed away because she could not fight the infection due to her lupus, your infection is very serious, contact an infectous Dr. And If you have a Heath dept they can help you, They can send you to a specialist if you do not have access to heath insurance. They take care of the expense.
