Woman died due to long-term steroids use

Woman died due to long-term steroids use Oorjuswattee Rucktooa, a 57-year-old woman from Bakewell Street, Penkhull died at the Royal Darwin Hospital in Northern Territory of Australia. According to investigations, she died a few hours after suffering from side effects of her steroid medications.

She was with her 27-year-old son visiting her brother on an open-ended tournament when she suddenly started to shout, became weak and confused.

Mrs. Rucktooa was originally from Alnandutt, Mauritius but moved to the UK in 1972. She and her husband worked as a nurse at the University Hospital of North Staffordshire and retired last 2005.

She was initially diagnosed with lung fibrosis in 1995. She had been receiving long-term treatment of immunosuppressive drugs up until now. This helped control the activities of the immune system.

Celia Kemp, deputy coroner of the Royal Darwin Hospital decided not to hold any investigation on Mrs. Rucktooa’s death. Autopsy reports filed by deputy coroner Anthony Curzon revealed that she suffered a condition wherein her blood did not clot, as it should.

Curzon confirmed that her death was due to long-term effects of steroids drug Mrs. Rucktooa was taking. She died because of a hazardous effect of steroid to the body.
