This morning I've got a very good nurse, Georgie, and she's really concentrating on getting the bp under control. She's pre-tilting the bed to get my body pumping its blood on its own.
I've been on the edge of the bed twice today, each time better than the one before. This time she hasn't put the compression stockings back on so again, my body has to get pumping. We're going to aim for the chair next time so they can change my sheets.
My abdomen is handling it OK, which is great. Just gotta get rid of those dots before my eyes...
My view:
Thank you everyone for all your encouraging words and wishes.
I did get some sleep thanks @Tilly45. Even though I'm still on two hour obs the nurse overnight let me go longer so I could get some rest.
@Sister @Romla I much prefer Tramadol but Endone seems to be what's on offer here. Haven't had any since yesterday afternoon. Just 10mg of Targin this morning, down from 15.
@SoldierCrab @iserbrown I'm really trying to take your words to heart, about rolling with my own recovery, not putting expectations on it. Thank you.
Going to doze now. All this sitting up is exhausting!
