Well my father is in hospital after an emergency A&E admission. Not directly from his kidney failure or a bowel blockage. His Blood pressure was 186 over 113, because his GP took him off blood pressure meds because of the Stage 5 Kidney failure/immanent dialysis. They told him to monitor it until the next meeting, which is October 22nd 😣 Apparently ( Read more... )

Oh fuck, fuck, fucketty fuck. And double fuck. Triple fuck too just for fucking good measure ( Read more... )

Well my father is in hospital tonight with another blockage and there is just One A&E doctor working. This is disgraceful, not enough funding and the funds that exist aren't going to the right places 😡 I had been told by someone in a position to know that A&E was to be closed from 10pm each night which is ridiculous given the next hospital is tens ( Read more... )

What a scare that was earlier. I hate things like that. Ambulance got lost (normal for here) and Rosie did her usual protect mum thing by climbing all over me as they were trying to do the ECG here then attempted to lick the Paramedic on the forehead as she bent to remove one of the electrodes! I still have chest pain but all is safe (touch wood). ( Read more... )

And so, my last post. About asparagus. Not once did I mention feeling bloody awful with chest pain and that I'd come to bed early. Chest pain that 14 hours later put me in A&E today after a ride in the ambulance and a lot of tests etc in the hospital. So if I'd died I hadn't said "Fuck I feel awful" but that "Cor tasty asparagus" would have been my ( Read more... )

So much going on lately, I'm sure I failed to mention here that I had the ultrasound for my pancreas on Friday. Because it's Type 1 Diabetes found by fluke from extreme symptoms the scan was for once rushed through. Tuesday week it was ordered and expiditated, the end of that week the appointment was already through. And I nearly gave my poor ( Read more... )

My Father had to collect my specialist food Order from the hospital today & they'd lost it, couldn't find it anywhere. Then they come back, there's a box of pureed meals in the freezer but it's labeled weatherwitch...! And it bloody Is labelled Weather Witch in the hospital freezer, inside AND outside the box!

Was at the hospital today, Appliances, with any luck things should finally be correct & as prescription. 18 months to get the ( Read more... )

Had a rough day today. I'd slept through my alarm so was up late at midday then had to go off to the hospital. Thing is I'd woken feeling crap, & was feeling so awful, burning stomach & feeling sick. By the time I got to the hospital, I was quite pale & retching so my father nipped in, said I was there but couldn't attend as was so poorly. The ( Read more... )

What a time the past year has been, mostly awful & finally fantastic thanks to herneoakshield (t-hermit on here). I still have no internet access. Before I write anymore though I have not been online since the shocking death of Ruth (catcrimson, kittyscarlet) in August last year. When her sister rang me I couldn't take it in. To be honest I still ( Read more... )
