I finally escaped.

I've been prodded, poked, X-rayed, Scanned and injected. I've given more blood samples from more veins than I thought I ever had in my arms.

The reason for all this prodding and poking? I blame maltloaf! He had a stinking cold just before christmas and took great delight in coughing on me. I then stated coming down with his cold and

Hey I only told them about the clexane for your own good and cos they were incompetent.

As for taking us out for dinner please say it's not the hospital restaurant ;-)

[blue_donkey]

didn't stop it hurting though :(

You really want hospital food? It can easily be arranged - Bwahahahahaha

[joebunny]

I think I would rather eat the Guinea Pigs food.....don't even think about it though

Best of luck with the rest of the recovery. Poor you. Hugs?

[blue_donkey]

Thanks. Fingers crossed I'm on the road to recovery

Glad you're out and improving :)

If that's the stuff I remember from when I had J it was like them injecting you with boiling hot liquid - but I guess it's worth it lol.

I made a point of going Ow lot when joebunny was watching. It wasn't *that* painful though. Just don't tell her ;-)

Hmm. I had the lying-in-bed-shivering thing on Thursday evening last week, with two duvets and a sweatshirt. I managed to crawl into work on Friday and do some menial coding that didn't require much thinking.

On Friday night I slept for twelve hours and had strange dreams, after which I just felt slightly grotty with substantial expectoration. Although it didn't feel like it at the time, it sounds like I got off very lightly!

Hence my not coming to visit you again last week, as I hope joebunny explained? I doubt you'd have thanked me for putting you back to square one. :-p

I'm glad you're out of hospital and generally on the mend. Mine's a bread and chips (or naan and chapatti, or baked dough balls, or other ethnic equivalent) if you're asking. (-8

joebunny did explain - hopefully yours isn't the start of pneumonia.

It's a little concerning the number of people that have this big bug at the moment. That would be the last thing that I want right now.

I'm sure I can stretch to some bread, although I would recommend that you don't put it in your kitchen :-P

[ethelthefrog]

Woo! Yay!

Glad you're free. I hear you'll need lots and lots and lots of restage, so take your time.

Hugs and stuff.

Ta

joebunny passed on your hug. It wasn't the same coming from you though.
