Well here I am battered bruised and tired but so glad to be home.
My friend picked me up from hospital today at 6pm.I am very tired but not sleepy so Thought I would catchup on some threads.Was kept in a little longer as I ended up with a bad asthma attack brought on by dry air with the central heating (which I dont have) and also my stress levels which also can bring on an attack.The doctors and nurses didnt really want to send me home as I havent got a nebuliser and I had been having them in hospital but as I explained to them I have had asthma for 40 years and it wasnt nearly as bad as I have had before and I didn't have access to one at home anyway as I used to pop down the road to the casualty to use theirs as The local hospital is 5 mins away.
I only needed it then cos I used to leave things too long.As I was put straight on steroids the day it started I would be fine.They asked the doctor to come see me again but my consultant came instaed and she knows how hospital gets me stressed and as she has operated on me 6 times over the years she was happy to discharge me as the operation site was ok.I have been sent home with the drain in and will have district nurses in each day until it can be removed.She did this last time as she knows I recover better when not stressed out.Thanks Thanks for all your messages on the other thread they were much appreciated
