I have been ill since end of November, breathing problems getting worse, getting better then slowing going down hill for last 2 weeks or so.
Had 10 day course of antibiotics.... asthma inhalers (both types) all sorts of sprays etc.
During night last night I thought if I don't get help I am going to be in real trouble and sure enough I was admitted into hospital this morning (early hours) I was kept on the acute care ward (attached to A & E) suspected TB (what?) anyway, turns out its cronic broncitus... they hope they have caught it before it leads to broncial phenomina...... I was discharged this afternoon after nebulisers (2 every hour) with loads of medication...lol just counted them in the morning I will have to take 15 tablets! I have to go back Monday and they will take decision on draining chest (funny I really think I will be 100% better by then lol - sounds horrible).
I haven't been asleep now for 3 days and I miss everyone because I have been 'in house' for days except when at work (yes work, I am too scared to take time off sick, they are sacking people for being off these days).. my sister is here from Holland and I cant see her and of course my other sister that had transplant I haven't seen her since before op because GP advice.
lol its taken me ages to type this, I keep stopping to have coughing fit... been worse since the nebulisers.. apparently coughing is good lol
Anyway, waffle over, I'm just feeling a tad lonely. my kids have been wonderful, they have done everything for Christmas thank goodness! so now I just need to give in to sleep...
Na night xxxx and happy Christmas everyone
