His Majesty's lung infection ease: Royal Household Bureau
His Majesty the King is still being treated for kidney failure although an infection in his lung has eased, the Royal Household Bureau said Saturday, in the latest update on His Majesty's health.
The latest statement issued by the Royal Household Bureau on Saturday night said he was recovering from a respiratory infection in his left lung after being treated with antibiotics.
However it said he continues to receive renal replacement therapy, a treatment for acute kidney failure.
"Today he has no fever and his breathing is normal...a blood test showed that the infection has reduced but he still has a small amount of urine, therefore doctors continue to give him CRRT," the statement said, referring to continuous renal replacement therapy.
