Ffosse I sense that you are not dealing with your hospital stay very well and are looking for reasons why. You seem anxious, but the reason for that is because you are ill, not because your Tv is too small or your canulas are uncomfortable.
What you really need is somebody to talk to that understands why you feel this way. You need somebody that can calm your fears and make you feel better, so why not ask your doctor if somebody can provide that help for you.
You have every reason to be upset and afraid, but it wont help you to relax. When I was having chemo the hospital had an aromatherapist who came to massage my feet and it made me far less stressed. Sometimes a little understanding can make you feel much better so, if your hospital deals with cancer patients regularly, they must surely understand that your mind suffers as much as your body. For that reason, I would tell somebody how down you are feeling and ask if they have anyone you can talk to.
Take care my friend, because your mind is playing tricks with your body and all you need is some diversion from your worries.
