Hi everyone....sorry moan alert.

Hi everyone, thank goodness, the hospital has free wireless and I have an iPhone helps to ease the isolation slightly! Thought I'd give you a bit of an update. This one comes with a full moaning alert!

So day 4of ivs-chest improving very slowly! Sadly the ivs are also causing severe nausea though- so im on a bucket load of antisickness meds. Not quite sure how long I'm going to be here they've said between 7-14 days

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a speedy exit but I'm moving house in Saturday- don't do things by half do I! coordinating a move single handedly is busy busy but a tad more tricky doing it from a hospital bed- van men all booked and friends have kindly stepped in to oversee everything, but I'll be living on my own so will have to do all the unpacking myself. So the excitement of wanting to go home is accompanied by the trepidation of arriving to a big pile of boxes and furniture and returning to work.

Sorry everyone just feeling a bit overwhelmed today. Hope you're all having a better day xxxx

Hi.
Perhaps your friends can unpack the essentials for you and have them ready for when you go into your new home. As soon as you feel better you could invite your friends to a housewarming and askd them each to bring a bottle and you will provide nibbles and. If they want glasses and plates they'll have to unpack them for you. Sorted. ;D
Sorry you are feeling so bad. I hope you get well very soon and enjoy your new home.

Hi
Sounds like they should have moved on those IV antibiotics a lot quicker,just the fact you need them at all suggests they are urgently needed. I am sorry you are a doctor, so i am out of line,but it seems a quicker response could have saved bed time.
It sounds like you have an awful lot on your plate,being in hospital makes an iPhone a necessity,it must be great,I was hospitalised in Italy with no charger and no top up for credit,that was desperate.
Is it possible they could change the antibiotic they dont all work so well and nausea suggests a change might be good.
Hope you feel better soon,let the movers take the strain at home

Sorry you feeling so bad. Its does sound like a long time to be in hospital for. Must be really bad. Hope you start to feel much better soon.

Hi everyone thanks for all your lovely messages, really kind of you. Still in, lungs are being incredibly stroppy!!
Saw the consultant on Friday and they switched me to a different IV-no longer feeling sick so can eat and drink normally whoohoo! Well as much as hospital food will allow you!
Sadly haven't really seen a change, I'm on regular nebs and up throughout the night. Have been told just have to give it time. Repeat cultures have shown the same bug-waiting on repeat sample taken on Friday but this little batch of bugs are stubborn beasts!!!

On the upside the house move is done-well everything is in the new place-just apparently can't move more boxes etc! Most hillarious thing is the remOval men took the washing machine and fridge freezer from the old rented house to my new one! Ooops! Needed a second trip to return them haha!
Hope you're all well, Louise xxx

Hi Louise.
So sorry you are still unwell. I hope it won't be long before you're well enough to face all those boxes. Just as well you had someone oversee the move or you would have gone home to more than you expected.
Fingers crossed for getting well soon.
