Well, no clots. Yay. My IV line has finally given up the ghost and I've been sent home with oral abs and will have to monitor the last remaining angry red spot. Back in for review for the next couple of days but short of putting another line in, it's wait and see. Lovely to have that tube out of my arm even though, thank you Lou from ED it was, without question, the most comfortable canula I've ever had.
I don't talk to those around me about all this stuff if I don't have to. Thanks to this forum, I don't have to--i can let off steam in a place where I feel supported, but I'm not imposing on anyone. Bless you all. Marg xxxx
