Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Thinking of you Ffosse, and willing you to feel better soon.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

OK, I'm feeling a little better but not much. I slept well but am just so tired all the time. I probably won't see another doctor until Monday now. Everyone says to me that they thought I had got out but I have to tell them that it was only for a day.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Sleep is restorative. Hope you get lots of it, as it also passes the boring time in hospital...

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

So glad to see this post, Dreamy.
Just rest if you can.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

I've been doing just that: resting. There's nothing else to do in here.At least they haven't enjoined me into switching rooms yet. I've been in this one bed for a record 4 and a bit days now.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Oh, Dreamy I do know you are so poorly and fed up.
Hugs are sent.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

A much better weekend so far, I seem to be able to sleep well at night plus have little sleeps during the day. Have had 2 visitors who have cheered me up a bit.

I'm going to get out mid next week. The past few times of discharge, I've been readmitted very quickly and don't want that to happen again. I'm still convinced it was because they were cancer procedures but there's nothing quite as desperate as going home then becoming seriously ill with infection hours later.

That, plus having to keep 2 hospital bags full of clothes and toiletries always at the ready. At least it's not like a regular 999 call - I phone a hotline number, tell them my temperature is 39.7, describe a few more symptoms and they send out the ambulance.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Yay to sleep! Nice to hear that getting sorted is well organised when you need it.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Just saw a doctor. They're switching my intravenous drug for an oral one plus giving me a new antibiotic drug for my chest.

She said that I could probably go home tomorrow, which is great news.
