Navalny doctors ask the head of the FSIN to urgently allow them to the patient

The treating doctors of the imprisoned oppositionist Alexei Navalny - cardiologist Yaroslav Ashkhmin, anesthetist Alexei Erlich, neurosurgeon Alexei Kashcheev and ophthalmologist Anastasia Vasiliev - addressed the director of the federal sentence of sentences to Alexander Kalashnikov with a request to urgently admit them to a naval colony No. 2 of the Vladimir region. The letter is published on the website of Novaya Gazeta.

Doctors justify their request with a “sharp negative dynamics of laboratory research data” by Navalny. In their opinion, his condition is approaching critical, renal failure has already begun, "which has already led to severe metabolic disorders."

Navalny holds a hunger strike for more than two weeks. The record on his behalf of the deterioration of these tests was published on Friday on his Instagram. It also says that the administration claims the possibility of forced feeding. Navalny demands to allow him to be a specialist in connection with back pain and other symptoms that, which does not exclude the politician, may be the consequences of poisoning.

The treatment of attending doctors to the head of the FSIN contains a request "On negotiations and an urgent medical consultation with medical workers of medical units No. 33 to discuss the diagnostic studies and prescribed treatment, as well as to remove the patient from a critical state threatening death."

The FSIN reaction to this appeal has not yet been. Earlier, the state of Navalny called the satisfactory. It was noted that in his colony two hernias were discovered that could cause pain and other symptoms.

• On August 20 last year, Navalny became bad on board the Tomsk -Moscow aircraft. Specialists in Germany, and then in other countries, established that the politician was poisoned by a neuro-paralytic substance from the Novice family. The Russian authorities deny the fact of poisoning. Navalny - based on the investigation of the Bellingcat group and a number of media - claims to be poisoned by the FSB officers. For more than two weeks, the politician was in a coma, and then for several months took place in Germany. In January, he found his condition satisfactory enough to return to Russia. Immediately upon arrival, he was detained and, after the trial, was sent to the colony in an old criminal case. He has been holding a hunger strike from March 31.
• Doctors, including Anastasia Vasilieva, the leader of the Alliance of Doctors Trade Union, held a promotion in the colony of Navalny last week at the entrance to the colony. She was dispersed, several people were detained and received fines or administrative arrests.
