Just got out of hospital from 03//02/17 - 09/02/17 had fluid on one of my lungs & mass sticky balls of phlegm stopping me from breathing, very frightening!! Anyway 7 times in 2 years in different hospitals but 3 times at Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital in 8 months. The professors, Doctors, Nurses & all the team that look after me every time are THE BEST!!

You have my sympathy, I know exactly what you've just been through, very hard to describe and "frightening" is a gross understatement. I liken it to being waterboarded, a similar sensation and similar in being a torture. I woke up too it 6 nights in a row.

Still, it's over now and back to the business of living and put it down to an experience, I have.

Thanks for your kind reply casper99 I am feeling much better now. I was reading your views on the herb & I have to tell you I have had a love affair with erb for 46 years & a very special weed she is. I do not smoke her anymore since 2014 because I have only 13% of my lungs that work but I still eat her. Don't worry bout big brother UK they are to far gone by tobacco & pharmaceutical companies. So many cannabinoids to heal different parts of the body, besides having peace of mind.

How scary and I am glad you are back home again now. I hope it doesn't happen again. x

Hello Hidden . That sounds very frightening. I am sorry you have to go through such an ordeal. Luckily, the hospital you were at is good. I hope when spring comes things will get easier for you. Take good care.
