Setback

[Theland]

After being told I could go home, I have now been told my SATS have dipped and my blood pressure is dangerously low.
''Dangerously?''
That word came as a shocker.
The only thing I have ever known to be dangerously low is my bank account :-(
Back on oxygen and 89%.
What next?
A library fine for my Enid Blyton books?
The book of Job comes to mind :-(

[Theland]

Everybody is getting weighed!
Never known that before.
Maybe to add to their statistics, like, '' fat patients cost more to run.''

[TonyV]

Last time I was in hospital patients were weighed daily for first few days after admission, never thought to question why.

[Theland]

I hope I get the expensive bed bath in the morning, foams and oils, and not the cheap one , a quick rub down with Dettol and a wire brush!

Theland. Alcohol isn't the scoundrel; I bet God might say that to you, but I would possibly differ from God in saying that I don't think you were the scoundrel. I think you are what you are. I love alcohol, and drink too much, but I do feel that it's my fault, not the fault of a natural beverage. I do wish you well, and as an atheist I have nothing against you because you are a human like me and we are all vulnerable.

[Theland]

Atheist - true and cheers.
I have to be a realist. I can't do the things I once enjoyed, (and that was a very long list :-)
My pleasures have to be adjusted accordingly.
I don't like it, but it reality.
Sad innit?

[Atheist]

Theland, despite our differences, we are as I said both human and we evolved to help each other. Good luck, and you're not alone.

[calmck]

Take care and get well. Weight taken possibly to see if you are retaining fluid. Just relax and get well soon

[Hopkirk]

Just sit back and admire the nurses.

That should raise your blood pressure.

[Theland]

Yup! Pressure going up :-)

[Hopkirk]

Good man

[Theland]

But his name is Daryl ;-)

[Hopkirk]

Oops.

[Hopkirk]

You probably wanted Barbara Windsor, but would have got Hattie Jacques.

[Theland]

If it was raining soup I'd have a fork :-(

[murraymints]

oh dear MrT.... my troubles fade into comparison, hope you too get better very soon xx

[Theland]

Some of your soup would be welcome Soupergirl :-))

[emmie]

get well theland, hope that your stay in hospital isn't too long.

[Theland]

Saw a consultant a few hours ago, they're keeping me in until at least tomorrow. Oxygen levels low. May get home oxygen.
Not happy :-(

[dannyk13]

Try to keep your spirits up Theland.

[TonyV]

Theland You're in the best place at the moment and getting the best treatment. I'm sure the hospital will not keep you in any longer than need be. Your bed will have another patient in it before it gets cold.
