The healing process appears to have had a slight set back, I'm leaking badly from the wound, it's increasing NOT decreasing, they had warned that SECONDARY CLOSURE in other wards re-opening then re-closing might cause healing to be much much slower and less effective too,
I'm having problems because I can't get the dressing re-done every 2 days as per the surgeons instructions, the District nurses can only do it every 3 or 4 days, soi a very wet dressing against the wound day after day, it dries and hardens, thyen gets soaked again, this becomes very very uncomfortable, and irritates the skin, plus the dressing becomes far too tight, hurting the leg,
They still haven't sorted my Potassium levels, or explained why, or what thier plan is, they haven't even discussed diet with me, and I have heard nothing more about having colonoscopy and or endoscopy done to find a reason for my Aneamia, the source of a bleed ? etc etc!
I really wish this was over, I'll grin and bear it, but I wish there was an ending to look forward too,
Unhappily, I have also just resigned from the committee of my local amateur radio club, Leicester Radio Society, over the last few years this club has been my whole life, beibg involved, learning, taking part, meeting the few friends I have, the only time I get out for weeks on end, but with my recent and long term health issues, and certain changes and dissagreements within the club, I felt it time to step back from the committee, It's heartbreaking,
Not my best day, but hey, my dearest friend, and in my mind my adopted sister, always makes me smile, one way or another, every few days, in her emails, I also get a kick in the pants from her if I'm wallowing too much in self pity, so smile or boot which is to come, I'll soon see, LOL,
Stop by soon, I'll keep you up to date with all that happens,
