My hospital story... and a warning.

I'm so glad you went, and that you are doing better!
 
Have you posted an update on how you are doing anywhere yet today, Karl? I do not follow all the threads and I am thinking of you. (And you are still in my prayers, friend.)

Thank you Deb for being a caring sweet person.
I have posted here and there as awesome people have asked me how im doing.
I am weak as a kitten today and the nasty weather is making my head want to explode.
But I am here and still kicken and got to help a good friend with a client of his nasty computer issue so I was useful too.
My wifey is near and I was useful so its a good day.
 
@Karl_K So glad that you're doing well. Barametric pressure is a MFer. Take care.
 
So glad you are doing better @Karl_K

I am glad you are well enough to be active on the forum, Karl. I hope the weather cooperates and that you get better every day !

Awww. I’m so glad you’re ok. Dust for a speedy recovery.
 
Dust for your continued recovery! I hope you recover your strength quickly.
 
I've followed your situation in another thread and I'm so glad to hear you are feeling better. Your note about the behavior you saw just might help someone. You are a good soul to be thinking of others as you go through this experience.
 
Just checking in, Karl. I hope at some point today you have the strength to update us, or at least to let us know yo are still OK! facetgirl was very observant about you. Kudos to you, facetgirl. You must be a kind, thoughtful person, too.

I had a good nights sleep, even woke up before my alarm.
Still pretty weak and my arthritis is so bad today I want to scream but that's the weather and not unusual.
Arthritis runs in my family with both my parents having huge problems with it and my sister and brother have issues with it now.

You are all so awesome!!! Thank you so much.
 
@Karl_K how are you feeling today? Thinking of you and hoping you’re feeling much better.

Rough night, almost ended back in the ER.
Iv been having some lower lung/side pain mainly with a deep breath or sneeze that started right before I came home from the hospital but it was not to bad.
Id told the doc before I was sent home about it and he wasn't concerned.
Early this am I went to blow my nose and my side hurt so bad I dropped to my knees and my o2 levels dropped.
I got it under control after a while thankfully! but I was almost ready to call 911 a couple times.
Its really sore today.

Aww I’m so sorry. I hope you start feeling better. And glad you didn’t have to go to the hospital. But if you have to I hope it will go smoothly like it did before. Sending you bucketloads of healing vibes.
 
I'm sorry @Karl_K .

Hang in there, thinking of you and sending healing vibes!
 
@Karl_K Sorry you had a rough night. Maybe you've pulled an intercostal muscle? Is your temperature ok? .....sorry, nurse training kicking in! :shock: Don't want you brewing an infection! Take care!
 
Karl, I’m so sorry to hear that you are suffering. I do hope that you recover soon.
 
@Karl_K, so sorry you are feeling so lousy. I hope you start feeling better soon!!!!

no temp thankful! I have been extremely paranoid about my temperature since getting home.
That is what I was thinking maybe pulled something.

that reminds me of something else that is new this time, they are sending everyone home with a thermometer with instructions to use it as part of the discharge procedure.

Oh, Karl. Does it never end? I am so sorry. I am glad you are able (or at least were able) to be on line to tell us about your night. I have no idea how you could "get it under control", but although I am very thankful that you did. Do you have any ideas on what is causing-or what sets off-this pain? It sounds so frightening and I cannot imagine just sitting and waiting for it to strike again.

Prayers outgoing. Please let us know what is happening.

Nurse training is wonderful!
 
That sounds very scary. I didn't realize you were in the hospital but I'm glad you are recovering. It's a scary time to be sick.
 
Feeling a little stronger today. Side is really really sore but its clarified to pain between a couple ribs so its a pulled muscle.
Weather is still wacked so arthritis and sinuses are nuts.
If it was not for my ribs I would be feeling pretty good.
Wish the weather was better so I could walk.

Glad you’re feeling a bit stronger today. Take it easy. No walking til you’re feeling much better. My opinion only. But slow and easy. Continued well wishes being sent your way.
 
@Karl_K Ouch to pulled intercostals! I had adult onset whooping cough about 6 years ago. Just about wrecked my intercostals so can sympathise. You may find a heat pad helpful if you're not already using one!
 
I'm glad the pain is identified a muscular, Karl. At least, now, you can suffer while knowing the pain will not kill you. I am very sorry for all you are going through. I hope your weather improves!
 
just seen this, I hope you get better soon, take care of yourself!
