Been in hospital 2 weeks now and get my results today, so scared.

[LargeGlassofRed]

have a few health threads going, it's been a long 2 weeks, I miss my kids so much it physically hurts :-(
The results from my lung biopsy come back tidal and with it a final diagnosis.
The front runner is neurosarcoidosis but the big c is yet to be ruled out.
So scared just want to press fast forward and get on with what ever it is. :-(

Hi all and a few more answers and many questions,
Newdevelopements - my back has started talking to me! It started yesterday during a dressing change, the to holes are turning out turns of puss and air and as they do, groan, bubble and whine at me, truly horrid.
The ultrasound should'd at the time last Friday, the infection was superficial,
So the I v antobitics should heal it, they are trying to work out what to do next, I have been on antibiotics 4 days now so should be turning the courner, the consultant team are all coming this morning to decide the next plan.
Still feeling very rough and managing tosleep on one side only, everything aches and everytime I move or breath deeper my back talks to me ! It really is one of the grosses things I've every experienced.

Sounds like a scene from Hogwarts! All oozing pus and air. Hope that the consultants give you some answers and reassurance today. Are you bored in hospital yet? All that strip lighting must be irritating beyond belief. I suppose when you're as ill as you've been you don't notice all that stuff but as you recover it will start to craze you. Fingers crossed for some good news today xx

That does sound spooky!
It must be quite an achievment sleeping with holes in your back and lungs, O2 pipes up your nose and all the noise of a respiratory ward going! Hope that the holes in your chest/ back respond well to the ABs and soon quieten down again! Sending vertual to cheer you up! I know the real ones are not allowed).
Hope the decisions today get you feeling better. ( gentle hug)

How are you?

I hope you are on the mend and IV antibiotics have kicked in.

Very quick update, ct scan showed massive infection on right lung, which had colapsed, ribs chest cavity. So headed for emergency theatre this morning.
Had a cut All round one side of me, and two chest drains in. All other details very hazy, will get more info in morn x

Sleep well if that's possible

Hope the operation has moved things forward and they now know more what's going on

Giraffes hope you are being well looked after and can get home soon. struggling a bit myself today (sats a bit low) but think it will sort itself out.

Oh gosh Largeglass! So very sorry to hear that you've had yet another setback. Fingers crossed that things will start to pick up now they've found the cause of the infection etc etc.
