Very quick one as I’m completely and utterly exhausted and sore. I cannot believe the treatment here, it is a whole universe away from anything I’ve ever experienced.
I have had 20+ bloods taken, one they don’t like that was immediate (lactic acid?) so I got 2 bags of fluids on a drip immediately one after another. Have 2 cannulas. Have had 3 Ct scans, an ECG. I’ve had swarms of very lovely nurses attend to my absolute every single need, and a lovely doctor see me.
Doctor says that depending on the CT scan (I know, more radiation- last of my worries) results, they want to stent me TOMORROW.
Kerr is staying tonight instead of our friend’s house (she popped in so kindly so see me, although I wasn’t much up for it) and they will bring a bed for him into my private room - en suite with temple spa toiletries no less. He doesn’t want to leave me.
So one way or another, stent tomorrow. They say by hook or by crook they will do me right if they possibly can.
I’m so thankful to be with people who actually care about my life, it’s the sort of visceral relief that makes you want to actually almost scream with gratitude. Look - it might be limited what can be done, but at least they want to help me.
Need painkillers now as it’s been a very long day. Going to get Kerr to help me into my pyjamas and sleep, hopefully. Have spoken to Jacob and my mum. They are just relieved I’m here and being cared for.
I’ll quickly start a new thread!
