Update of really at the bottom

[geordienemisis]

Hi all, I am currently in the infectious diseases ward at the Newcastle upon Tyne RVI. I've got a blood clot on my lung. Still feeling pretty bad waiting for treatment to start.

[helixhelix]

Although obviously not good having a clot, at least you know why you felt so bad! Hope they get it sorted today and you can start to recover.

[Fra22-57]

Hopefully they will start you on course of warfarin to fix you.hope you are soon well and back at home

[Jackie1947]

Wishing you a speedy recovery

[Hidden]

Upwards and onwards from here! I hope things start to brighten for you and that you feel better soon

[sylvi]

[Boxerlady]

Thank you for the update - I was wondering how you were after your post yesterday.You're definitely in the right place and hopefully will be back on your feet and feeling much better soon.

[Marionfromhappydays]

Wishing a speedy recovery to you x

[Lolabridge]

Well thank goodness it was discovered and you’re in the right place to get good treatment and care. I hope you recover quickly.

I had PE"s and a DVT back in 2014 and it's not a problem now. I hope you get Riveroxaban as like me life is normal, no diet, no after effects, and no stockings best of all no blood tests. It's a game changing medication. So try not to worry and it's a medication that's clever as little interactions with other medications. The stomach jabs aren't good but not for long. Have you had a VQ scan or MRI and doesn't the arterial blood gas hurt ? xxx So you'll feel a lot better soon, take it easy and best of luck. If your being treated for Covid then even more take it easy and hopefully the medications will be given shortly and soon you'll be dancing around that bed. xxx

I am on Riveroxiban too.

[springcross]

[nanapat61]

Oh gosh! Best wishes to you for a speedy recovery.

[Kags1068]

So sorry to hear that. Do hope you soon start to feel better. X

[Mmrr]

The old cliche, you are in the right place now and treatment can progress. Wishing you well.

[Wobbies]

No wonder you felt so bad. Wishing you a speedy recovery and hope you can get home soon.

[Biofreak]

Hi G. You will get sorted now I'm sure. No wonder you felt so ill. Good wishes for a quick recovery.

[charisma]

Serious but thank goodness it was seen and you will hopefully soon get sorted. All the best for that and full recovery.

[Hessie5]

I hope all goes well for a swift recovery - take care.

[Pinkypie2018]

Wishing you a speedy recovery and that you feel better soon!!

[Fruitandnutcase]

Oh no, hope your treatment gets going soon and you’re up and about in no time. No wonder you didn’t feel well.

[Sheila_G]

You are now about to start the treatment that will make you feel so much better. Sending love and best wishes for a complete recovery.

[smilelines]

Wishing you a speedy recovery.

[Ruth12345]

Hope your treatment has started. It's a jolly good hospital in my experience. Not been on that ward tho.All the best. 🌞

[liveinwoods]

Hope your treatment goes well! All the best.

[pippin_fort]

I am amazed they haven’t jabbed you in the stomach immediately with clexane and out you on anticoagulants immediately. I had one last year at the height of the pandemic and that is what they did for me. At least they kept you in which is more than they did for me. I just got called daily! I wish you luck and a speedy recovery.

[geordienemisis in reply to pippin_fort]

Hi yeah I've had several injections and drips of all varieties. Still feeling unwell but better than I was. Have to have more ct scans. Cheers

[happyinlove]

Hope you get the treatment and on your way to my recovery soon! I will pray for a speedy recovery hod speed to all the medical professionals around you

[K3-2]

Glad you're in the right place for treatment. Get well soon. 🌻🌻

[Wraf22]

Oh bless your heart, sorry can’t help but sending a huge hug. Get well soon

[Green230461]

No wonder you felt “ a bit rough” I know it is a cliche but you are in the right place! Now they can sort that body of yours and you will be fighting fit soon. Also the good news is that you have great ankles! So stop showing off and get better soon. Thanks for the update. Do as you are told and get well quickly🌺🥗🤕

[Green230461]

Any treatment yet

[geordienemisis in reply to Green230461]

Wafferin, and something in an injection to dissolve them apparently. I'm feeling slightly better 👍

[Green230461]

That is good to hear! As soon as the hospital food starts to taste awful you know you are on the mend!get well soon🌺🌸🌼🌻

[Green230461]

So are you still in the hospital or are you safely back at home? Hope you are feeling better today 🌺

[geordienemisis]

Hi, Green230461. I'm still in waiting for more CT scans of my pelvis and lower stomach. Then I'll have had my whole body CT scanned. Because these blood enzymes are so high, they are saying it could be cancer and then again not. During the waiting time I've also gotten a rash over my complete body. Feeling a little better all round. So many questions need to be answered

[Green230461]

Hi there!Did they find out about your pelvis? I got a rash in hospital when I had a shoulder replacement! Would you believe I was allergic to the washing powder on the sheets? You could not make it up.

Hope you are doing okay. Keep strong in there. 🌺

[geordienemisis]

Sort of had remaining CT scans said they couldn't see any more clots but blood enzyme count was still off the chart. As I was feeling better they let me go home. I'm still taking increased doses of blood thinners to dissolve lots need regular scans to check progress. Rash was due to the body wash I was using at the time. Some new rubbish. So now I'm having a massive flare up due to having stopped taking RA meds but I'm home at least. Cheers for the interest. 😀🍺
