Has anyone experienced left side pain?

My daughter (30yrs) had open surgery 2001. She had to have a revision (transection)this April 15. Nine days later she had emergency surgery on April 27 due to a serious wound infection. She is back in the hospital due severe left side pain. So far the drs cannot find why. Since her admittance to the hospital this past Sunday, she has gotten worse. Her blood pressure is 80/40 sometimes a little higher. Her wound has gotten very liquidy where it was dry before, and know she can barely keep her eyes open. There is something seriously happening to her and the dr. does not know why. I am waiting for the results of a contrast CAT scan, lots of bloodwork to come back. But in the mean time her health is deteriotating. She is at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston and has what I thought was an excellent dr, but watching her decline I feel so powerless and enraged at the same time. The dr. knows exaclty how I feel but that doesn't change anything. Does anyone know of anything like this happening? Desperate Mom-Donna
