More Miserable Days
A few more unpleasant days. On Friday ,my leg was very swollen & discoloured,after the problems Id had during the week with the ulcer I thought Id get advice,so I rang the district nurses ,who had been dresing my leg,but they said they couldnt advise & wouldnt be coming till Monday, so I rang my Drs surgery & told a Dr would ring back,within minutes my own Dr rang & when I described my problem she said she was coming to see me.She came & was concerned about my leg & arranged for an ambulance to take me to Hospital,this did not come till 8pm so by the time I got to hospital it was late, I was put on a drip,taken to a ward & kept alone in an isolation room untill I was allowed home Monday eve.Tests show that my heart is not working properly & blood not flowing in my legs,also a small blood clot in my leg, but they do not feel its much to worry about.Tomorrow I will get a Dr in for a follow up visit.Then its a matter of building up my strength again: & try to keep out of Hospitals
