Hospital

[dede10]

Well, here I sit in the hospital, been here since Thursday night. My temp kept climbing & my wbc's were virtually non existant. This was 9 days after Navalbine. Believe me, I am not a happy camper. I've had cultures twice, and I just want to go home.

The hospital isn't the best place to be even when you're sick.

Oh Dede

I'm so sorry you became so ill. At least they are looking for the bug that got you down and then they can target the perfect antibiotic to get you back on the road to recovery. It's hard to keep your chin up when you feel lousy. And the hospital is the best place to be when you're sick but its not too easy to get any rest. I will be thinking about you.

Kind regards

Becky

Dede: I know how you feel about hospitals. I always want to be home in my own bed and a quiet room. Fortunately, I have not had to be in the hospital since my surgery 5 years ago. I have to be honest I don't make a good patient! I sure hope your stay will soon end but you do need the medication to get better. Wishing you much healing and home soon. Sending you a big hug.

Right now, they are leaning towards the possibility of an infection in my port, which means new port-again. This will make my 3rd. I should know for sure tomorrow AM....

Darn those ports, both a blessing and sometimes a curse

Dede, Sorry to hear that you're in the hospital. That's the last place any of us want to be. Just try and remember you are at the right place and if it's an infection with the port you can always get another one in. Best of luck to you.
