Home again.

[Jacksc06]

Got home at around 20:30 after first cycle of Rituximab. Had a poor night's sleep on the ward as usual, so hoping to sleep well tonight. No major dramas during the infusion. Bit of a headache and feel like I'm on fire but generally OK. Next cycle is Tuesday next week so one down three to go. Love and strength to all.

I must be one of those strange beings that sleeps well in hospital, perhaps it’s the 💊 and lack of 🐈🐈 in the middle of the night. Gets some rest.

Thanks Colette. It's the constant awakening for obs plus other patients and its not my bed. Will see how I am tomorrow.

[mrsjsmith in reply to Jacksc06]

I seem to be good at sleeping through those. I just seem to find the shape of the hospital beds perfect for me, unlike the dreadful showers. Sleep well tonight. 🛌

[BobbyFour]

I can sleep anywhere at home, but not on strange beds - hotels or hospitals! It sounds like you are off to a good start though!!

[Jacksc06 in reply to BobbyFour]

Thanks, yes there's no bed like your own. I hope the next three go as smoothly.

[Fran57 in reply to Jacksc06]

Good that you’ve done the first one and you’re sounding positive. Hope you sleep better now you’re at home,

Fran 😉

[Jacksc06 in reply to Fran57]

Thanks Fran. Slept quite well.

I could never sleep in hospital, there’s nothing like your own bed. Good luck with next treatment.

[Jacksc06 in reply to Mtk1]

Thanks Dave. I tend to walk the hospital corridors at night until I'm shattered, and sleep in the day but it's never good sleep.

[bennevisplace]

My sympathy, I never had a decent night's sleep in hospital, too much commotion in the corridor. Have you tried earbuds and white noise on a phone app? It gave me some respite.

[Jacksc06 in reply to bennevisplace]

My further three infusions are in the day suite which will be better.

Hi Jack. That is amazing to hear. Thanks so much for taking the time to let us know. Sorry I didn’t reply last night, I was already in bed and asleep!! Hope you got some sleep too. Don’t forget your lovely neighbours if you need anything.

[Jacksc06 in reply to Walkingtall62]

Thanks. Had a good rest. Feeling OK today.

How wonderful to be home tucked back in your own bed with familiar surroundings 😊 A good nights sleep is certainly in order. Thank you for sharing your journey. Wishing you all the best.

[Jacksc06 in reply to Stamphappy]

Thank you.

Weirdly I rather like things going on so lights and background noise din’t affect me too much, Nice to be home I bet.

Peggy

[Jacksc06 in reply to Peggy4]

Yes it is Peggy. Puss is happy I'm home.

[Jacksc06 in reply to Mystic75]

Thanks D. Sleeping OK. I have an air filter in my bedroom which helps.

[Mystic75 in reply to Jacksc06]

That's a great idea, Jack. Glad you are able to get some rest. 👍
