Sounds as if you have had a rough time, but you are still here! Many of us have had variations on what you have been through, and it is a real shock to the system. The only advice I can offer is put it behind you, and follow the advice you are given on medication and activities. Many people come out healthier than they were before.We know how you feel, and wish you well.

You have really been through it. I would ask nicely if they don't discharge you just yet. Once discharged, the only way back in is via the GP or A&E.
