Steven was informed by Dr Kumar this morning that Steven was being referred to Papworth, unfortunately they couldn't get hold of me, so when i found out i tried to ring Steven unsuccessfully, then remembered he probably was having dental treatment.
In the end i decided to ring the ward and have a lovely chat with Dr Richard Marsden, he explained although Steven is on very strong antibiotics, they have reached a plateaux where the infection markers aren't getting as low as they expected, which means they are seeking advice from Papworth about whether a replacement valve is necessary. We should hear their response shortly.
