Hospital.....

All I have to cling to at the moment is the sheet of paper I got before surgery which said "swelling after sinus surgery is normal and can last four to SIX WEEKS", and a few sites I found online which said recovery can take two months.

other than that....despair. I actually don't know what the fuck I'm going to do if I fail to feel better, I can't advance my career very easily, I can't go out and have a beer, I feel introverted and on the edge of something close to depression because of feeling sick all the time and feeling like nobody can understand, not that friends/gf and family aren't helpful, but I mean they literally can't understand....

what have I done to deserve this? I've missed two summers and there is only a glimmer of hope.....I know it could be worse, it's not a serious condition, but I've never had such bad times as the last 15 months.

I hope you feel better soon; it is depressing to have sinus trouble. Hang in there...

I have Bronchities. I'm in the hospital for it and more that I will share only to trusted people. I'm puking blood, having siezures, going into
shock every now and then, etc. I'm not sure of what to do. I walked in here 2 weeks ago now i'm nervous to say I might not walk out. I feel
to young to die but i'm not sure if I will but for some reason I have a deep feeling that I might. I'm not crazy or mental or dilloosional.
Just a worried/terrified and curious teen looking for some answers. Can someone help?

What are the answers you are looking for?

Or, what questions are you looking for answers to?

A woman on my facebook feed posted that she was going into hospital to "get myself sliced". I don't know what she means by this and I don't think it's appropriate to ask. What does it mean?

In for 3 days, out on the 5th, back last Friday, staying indefinitely til they figure out how to make my gums stop bleeding (low platelets, no clotting). It sucks. Got my laptop from my friends' rescue visit today.

Great time for new cancer symptoms to kick in.

I’m sorry Morbs, that’s awful.

I thought maybe this was de-indexed, so understand if you don't wanna share

cheese and crackers is always a good meal to me

agree though that hospital food in general is bad

they gave it with ACTUAL PIZZA though

New treatment plan in place. Three more weeks in here.

Sounds like an exit strategy to me, Doc - the good kind. Is it?

I guess, at best.

life is an exit strategy

Just hit 2 weeks in a hospital in Bangkok which was supposed to be no longer than a long weekend. No end in sight. Had back surgery for two herniated disc, woke up and both legs were numb. My right leg has made a lot of improvement but my left is still pretty worthless. Doing PT every morning and now they have me “walking” in something called a PMS machine which is fucking exhausting. Woke up the night after the first session and felt like my legs were on fire.

In a semi private room and got my third roommate yesterday who brought two women with him. So now there’s four of us in one room. One of the ladies coughed all night and would spit into the trashcan afterwards. Plus they talked throughout the night and I barely slept. This shit is going to drive me insane. Haven’t seen my kids or wife in two weeks. Now the doc wants to do a new MRI which I assume could lead to me having another surgery. This sucks

Good lord, that's all terrible to hear! Damn. So no provision for even a quick visit from your family?

Yeah they’re gonna come up on Saturday for a long weekend. My poor wife has been holding it down in Phnom Penh, keeping the kids in school and working her hard ass job. I honestly don’t want to burden her with the trip but she really wants to come.

Just played “easy” by the commodores three times in a row so feeling better

What the fuck Heez! jesus

dang Heez, hope things are looking up soon <3

Thanks all

Just got discharged after *Muddy Waters voice* forty days and forty nights

Still can’t walk but I’ll at least be doing PT in Phnom Penh with my family. One day I’ll be able to look back and say, damn that truly sucked

wishing you a speedy recovery

Congratulations!!

Hope you are able to recover well, Heez

congratulations Heez, enjoy being out of hospital. and be kind to yourself! that’s a long time and adjustment can be very weird.
