Home at Last! I was discharged from the Hospital late yesterday afternoon after nine days of treatment. I slept like the proverbial log last night, thankful for not being woken at 2am and 6am for Blood Pressure and other tests! Needless to say all that laying in bed doing nothing was exhausting and I'm taking it very easy for a few days.
I read several books during my hospital stay and hopefully I'll have some reviews to post here soon. Over the next few days I'm going to relax getting some painting done and catching up with the hundreds of unread posts from all the Blogs I follow. With a bit of luck I should be back to the regular posting schedule by the end of the week.
Thank you everyone who left comments of support after my earlier announcement. I'm on the mend and should be back to my normal mischief making very soon!
Glad to hear you're at home now

ReplyDeleteLee, very sorry to hear about your sufferings. I hope the leg is on the mend and you can return toainting asap. I've never really understood why the think that the best way to treat you is to wake you up every 2 hours!

Thank you everyone for your kind words. Feeling slightly more human now that I've had some real food and decent sleep. Still popping pills by the bucket load but defiantly mending. The offending limb is still swollen and sore but the areas worst effected by the infection are healing.
ReplyDeleteNow I just need to convince my GP to refer me to a skin specialist so we can get to the bottom of why this has happened. This is the third time I have had this supposedly rare condition in the same leg. I'm convinced there must be an underlying cause, just not the obvious ones like poor circulation or diabetes. Problem is the Doctors don't seem to want to investigate any further and are content for this to happen again and again... needless to say I'm Not content with this.
Hospital food suck, because no matter how hard they try it ends up bland and uninteresting. As for sleep while in a hospital that is why they give you drugs to know you out.
ReplyDeletePS: Sounds like the doctors need to give you a better explanation of your rare disorder. Perhaps ask them how a rare disorder keeps repeating might help?
