After a heart scan and a CT Scan this morning, the powers that be decided I could come home π‘
Had an incident with the cannula being removed, I bled everywhere and for ages, as no-one had told me that Id been taking blood thinners ππ©Έ
For anyone who hasnt been admitted to Torbay recently, they now have what they call the Discharge Lounge. A room full of chairs and wheelie tables where you are discharged, get your meds to go home with, food and drink whilst you wait and then get to leave on good behaviour π
I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all the staff who have cared for me on A&E Green Zone, AMU3, McCullum and The Discharge Lounge.
We are so lucky to have an NHS service who provides for us free of charge, staff work long hours and often get abused, especially verbally.
Anyway I've come away with new and changed meds to help bring my heartbeat up etc.
