Oh Woe is me
« on: July 30, 2020, 11:56:37 AM »
Been a bad couple of mouths healthwise which is why I've not been posting recently.

Currently sitting in a ward at Harlow and just finished the chat with the Doc.

Couple of months ago started having bouts of vertigo and nausea resulting in a couple of visits to A&E, a bit of a weight loss and drop in quality of life. Gets worse ending in an infection, a fall and a rush to hospital; that was a couple of weeks ago. Spent the first week away with the fairies who wouldn't tell me who I was. Finally I crept back to the land of the living and now 'on the mend'; I've now a busted clavicle, look like 'Starvin' Marvin'', have a possible blood clot in my right leg. have referrals left right and central and some changes to be planned depending on final outcome.

Should be back at home by now.Yesterday I was all paced, meds sorted and ready and waiting. the fact that they then moved me to different ward should have been a warning.

Saw a new consultant doctor this morning,he ordered further bloods and more scans. (this was 6 hours ago and nothing has happened) He's after the root cause of my problem, something I thought was to be done via outpatients.

So, everything is open-ended. Who knows when or if I'll be my old self again.
