Just In - What An Afternoon - Treliske A&e
62 Answers
Hi, glass of wine desperately needed and to hand now!
Being a lovely day, took the mater and went into Trurra and did her banking, shopping and then on to a lovely pub over the water just south of the city, towards Falmouth, one of my customers for my stationary.
Anyway, the mater sits in the window, munches back a mushroom and pea risotto and just finishes it. Complains of being warm and moves out of the sun - and then to collapse - onto the bench and onto the floor, so more of a roll.
Immediate first aid from two of us, pulse is strong, get her comfortable, the pub staff call the ambulance - still out thirty mins later, in fact for 50 minutes - only coming to in the A&E......
I got things cleaned up, paid up and then followed, one hour fifteen wait (not too bad) and then through....CT scan done and no stroke, ECG done and no heart attack - looks like some vasovagal incident coupling into blood pressure drops, the cause of which is still unknown, and which we have had two when she naps, going into a comatose state.
Long and short of it is that she has been released (7pm) and is now back, an outpatient and they are going to have a look at her heart performance for 24 hours as that was a little unstable as was her blood pressure.
They were thinking about overnight observation but a really nice doc stepped in, took the second blood and got them off for early analysis, and got the consultant down.
Probably just as well as she was threatening 'walkies' and we had all sorts of histrionics - honestly, she could have been Liz Taylor..... and then if I had to tell her once that she had collapsed in the pub and had been out for 50 mins, I told her 40 times. My suspicion was that they felt that she would be far better back here, so accelerated her through. In that, they were right.
So phew, and this Tescos offer Castillo San Lorenzo Rioja is tasting good....
Any recommendations on wine for such events? Or de-stressing techniques, hopefully humourous ones?
