Body temperature

Oh crikey! You poor thing - thinking of you and your dh

Lucky, my dh was taken away in an ambulance after passing out with pain and it was thought to poss be a heart attack. However, nothing was found at the time but a scan was arranged and it was discovered that he has multiple large gall stones. Doc reckons it was a gall stone.

Take care of yourself and never hesitate to ring 111 or 999.
He hasn't had a further episode but is awaiting treatment for the gall stones.

Luckygirl. I was in A&E for 5 hours last week and the eventual probable diagnosis was Gastritis. SIL was similarly ill a couple of years ago and very ill indeed with it. Pancreatitis is another possibility, but I understand both are treatable, even reversible.
Were you taking Ibuprofenor aspirin for your temperature perhaps? Both would go for your gastric juices.

Just caught up. So sorry you’ve had more illness. As kitty said, enough now. Wishing you a peaceful, comfortable night.

lucky blimey!! What a time you are having. I do so hope that you can now concentrate on your recovery.

Hope you and your OH soon make a full recovery, luckygirl

You've had a horrible time.

What a time you are having Lucky

Hopefully the hospital provided some medication to bring your temperature down.
Good to know you have family helping you both.

I expect you gave your DH quite a fright.

Wishing you both a Speedy recovery

Hi there - and thanks for your concern. We are both completely flaked out - temp still over 40; I seem to be getting nowhere and have no energy at all - I do need a shower sometime! Please steer clear of folk with the flu - you seriously do not want this. DD2 has it too and is also on antibiotics with a chest infection. Roll on spring.

So sorry to hear you are both ill and you could certainly have done without trip to A&E! Good that family rallied round. Just rest and drink lots and hopefully improve in a couple of days. Hope you can get some sleep tonight.

Thanks for the good wishes everyone. Still got high temp, but need to try and shower this morning as I feel perfectly filthy - but every tiny action is a real effort and flakes me out.

I plan to see my GP about these sudden attacks of abdominal pain - no-one seems to now what it is, but at the point when it strikes I am really quite poorly. This time I was unconscious for quite a long time - I remember calling out in pain and then nothing till there was a paramedic putting a needle in my arm. OH said that I was grey and clammy and my BP was in my boots. The paramedic told me that they could not give me any pain relief till I was stable. It has happened twice now - absolutely indentically. There must be something causing it. I suspect bile duct, as I have no gall bladder. Or pancreas?

I am not wild about a further raft of investigations really.

Hope all fellow bug-ridden gransnetters are beginning to surface from this dreaded lurgy.

Morning lucky! Thanks for the update. I 'feel' you sound a little better. Hope you get your shower!
