After just getting out of hospital after 3 weeks im still not feeling any better, i was on ivs for 2 weeks and had my port removed as it was infected. Since i got home i've been feeling worse than what i was when i got addmitted.
I feel terrible and havent done anything since i got back home, i've had no energy. I just feel so sick.
Im actually just going back upto hosptial at 2pm today, so will see what the say.
I've been crying alot, as i hate feeling sp bad.
Anyone any ideas on how to life my spirits?
Hope everyone is well and smiley
Lots of love as always Tasha.x

hopefully the docs will change your IVs, sounds like your current ones arent working.

get your friends over and have a nice afternoon witha bit of 'normality' and good company!

rent something funny like bill bailey or billy connoley, and try to get out if your not feeling too rough, maybe go have a starbucks with a mate or shop if your up to it?

i hope you feel better soon. xxx

Just be gentle on yourself hunni. You've had a couple of nasty infections and a horrible port infection. It's bound to have knocked the stuffing out of you and left you feeling emotionally drained and down. But the sun will shine again and you've got lots to look forward to in the next few weeks. So just take it one day at a time and you really will get there, even if it doesn't feel like it. Thinking of you. Tons of love xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I'm not too hot on ideas at the moment but I just wanted to say don't be too hard on yourself. You've been through a lot in these past couple of weeks so I think you are entitled to a few teary moments.

I hope all goes well with your appointment this afternoon and that you are already in better spirits.

Best wishes

Hi hon,after being in hospital for 3 weeks,having a port out and a new one in and also having IV's it will knock you for six.You've been through alot in the past few weeks,and I always find if I've been in hospital I get completely exhausted doing nothing and generally feel quite down for a while.

Just take things a day at a time hon,you will get there eventually
