Again

[whit]

i had a moan yesterday about getting called in to hospital again, i went yester day and saw who i thought was a school girl, she was a senior resperitory doctor,she did a scan, like a portable scanner, result she said i am going to remove some water out of your lung i thought test tube amount ,it was 2 pints i feel lots better now, still puffticated but not as bad as before.

Pleased to hear you’re feeling a bit better now whit. You can breathe a little easier now. Take care xxx❤️

Thank goodness that you went back. I was aghast and very worried that they sent you home with both a pneumothorax and fluid (an empyema). That you actually finally came into contact with a professional respiratory doctor who knew what she was doing was next to a miracle. You need to take it easy now and keep an eye on it. When I had my empyema and later when I was given a pneumothorax during a procedure to insert a pacemaker it was followed by IV antibiotics to fend off an infection. ( bronch exacerbation)

It must be good to have got rid of all that fluid. I hope the schoolgirl doctor stays around. Your story reminds me of when my daughter had appendicitis. This cool, young, black man came into the room. I thought he must be the porter since he seemed too young to be a doctor. He was the anaesthetist.😍

2 pints? Blimey - no wonder you feel better without that. Keep on feeling better

Gosh a lot of fluid there. Thank goodness for that doctor. Take care. Xx

I’m so glad you went back to the hospital and had fluid drained from your lung. I was a bit shocked to read that you’d been sent home with a pneumothorax and fluid in your long.

On the drs becoming younger (like policeman!) my eldest grandson and his wife are both F2 doctors at a hospital in Edinburgh, 2 years out of med school. She looks about 16!

[Digger0]

These doctors are like policemen - they should still be in short trousers! Glad she knew what she was doing and you feel better.
