At the Hospital.

Arrived at the Hospital and managed to walk to the accident and emergency reception desk. Every step i walk my head is feels like its going to explode, my neck is so stiff i cannot rotate my head into any position, I am wretching continuously. I can remember giving my name to the receptionist and then collapsing. I am semi conscious as Andy puts me into a hospital wheelchair and takes me through to the cubicles. All the time i am shouting for people to do something about the pain in my head , my pain score is 10/10. I am still feeling very very nauseous and actually vomiting at times. I am given some morphine for the pain and some anti sickness. Andy tells me that the morphine had an strange effect on me! I was trying to climb off the trolley over the bars and my respiratory rate dipped as well. I have no recollection of this moment i am now drifting in and out of consciousness. I wake up in a C.T scanner ready for my head to be scanned, the room has bright lights with lots of people talking around me.

  2. Take it easy Kim and get well, it sounds like a horrific episode and just out of the blue like that. How about an update on your recuperation and your recovery at home. Tips, advice, thoughts and attitude etc. It must have been such a life changing experience.
    Best wishes from 'Him indoors'.
