Talking

I was in such shock Gerry I didn't think to ask, I was feeling very poorly & had just been trying to explain one of the many ways in which I use to control bowel blockages from home to the nurse, DB didn't see I was trying to have a serious conversation and kept interrupting & saying stupid things, so I had turned to him and said quite sharply, can you just shut it please. I went back to the nurse to carry on the convo & his assistant appeared, swiftly followed by him. (One thing as DB noted, they are going to be giving me injections now of something so I don't get constipation- why can't we get these at home?)

I think from memory he said the hemotoma is on the spine.

They gave me this injection shortly after in the stomach muscle and within minutes I was on the loo & it was loose / light.

Atm I've had to get them because the picc line flesh immediately surrounding it is now inflamed & I've got a cold compresss on it. I think they would all be happy if me and my box of problems
