NHS, Be afraid, be very afraid
I've been awol from AW for a few days, I'll explain. Last Tuesday I had an MOT at the Royal Blackburn, and another appointment with the COPD team, everything was fine, keep taking the tablets. I arrived home at 11-30am from whence I saw nobody that day or the next, Thursday morning I woke up and wasn't feeling tikitiboo, thought I'd eaten something that didn't agree, the symptoms abated during the day, yet Friday I felt even worse. Over the years I have learnt to tell the difference between a chest infection and exacerbated asthma, I follow three rules, Temp, sputum colour and blood sats levels, all three weren't good, took necessary steps to combat, Ant Bios and boost in steroids. Needless to say, over the weekend I was as rough as a badgers tadger, in bed all day. My Cm came to see me yesterday, upped the strength of the anti bios and Steroids, It appears that during my 2 hour say at the Royal Blackburn I had caught an HAI, and am waiting to see just what little gem I brought home as a gift, I'm just hoping its not something very, very nasty, the samples are at the Path lab and will get to know Thursday or Friday, John is not a Happy Bunny

Re: NHS, Be afraid, be very afraid
Sorry to hear about that, John, but glad to see you back.
Been asking Cashy and Mthead if they knew owt, as your prolonged absence from Accyweb (most unlike you) was a bit worrying. Anyway, I'm sure you'll make up for lost time now!

Re: NHS, Be afraid, be very afraid
Nice to see you back online. I have a question though.
How do you know you have caught a HCAI if you have not yet got the results?

Re: NHS, Be afraid, be very afraid
How many times have you been told, Jaysay - when you go into hospital and you see "Alcoholic Handrub" mounted on the walls it's purpose is just that. If you insist on drinking the stuff you will get a hangover and you will not feel very well afterwards. So don't come on here complaining to us.
