My DH just been taken into hospital with an irregular heartbeat, low oxygen and breathlessness worse than normal due to COPD. He has been unwell since xmas eve and we have tried to cope at home with calls to 111 and gp ringing us back with prescription for antibiotics and steriods as he is prone to chest infections. But this morning we had to admitt defeat. Hoping they will discharge later today as dont really want him staying in there, also that they will sort out what ever the issue is. sad

Mawbe Thank you for the news of Travelsafar and her husband. It's a relief to hear they are both being cared for, albeit poorly enough to be in hospital. I send my kindness thoughts and wishes for a complete recovery for them both. flowers

Marydoll Wed 06-Jan-21 19:41:34

I came into check as well. I was so worried about them. They are in the right place to get all the necessary support and treatment.

I dont want to derail Travel's thread, but to clear up why I've not been about. welbeck, I've been Coronary Care since Monday, had a heart attack. Fantastic care and staff under so much pressure, with no available beds. I'm back home now, thank goodness. Much safer for me.
Unless you have experienced it, no- one can have any conception what it is like in our hospitals. God bless all the NHS staff.
