Just got out of hospital after taking myself to a&e on Monday (i drove there but then got out the car and couldnt stand up so a paramedic took me in a wheelchair). I'm used to treat and street, why was I admitted and kept in for so long?
This was my discharge plan.... I was able to weight bear after 1 day to hobble to.the toilet and the consultant saw this. He was still worried but he didn't explain a lot to me and I was on oromorph. Not my own best advocate so I didn't really ask much.
Feel a bit in shock.... any ideas?
"47 yo female presentedvwith sudden onset R hip pain 9/10 in intensity and being unable to weigh bear. She is a fit and healthy lady who actively works out. Ct scan showed a hematoma so a CT angio was done which ruled out any active arterial or venous bleeding. She has no signs of collection and this seems to be more of a sprain or rupture of the ilacus muscle which correlated with the history that she presented and with her very active lifestyle "
