ambulance called by 111

So sorry to hear this travelsafar, really hope your DH is well enough to come home soon. What a worrying few days for you. Take care of yourself ?

Sorry to hear that travelsafar hope your DH gets the treatment he needs and is back home soon

I am sorry to read this , but he will get more treatment in Hospital than at home , just hang in there and hope they get to the root of the problem and find the correct medication ..
I won’t say don’t worry , as I am sure you can’t help that , but do try to rest and reassure yourself he is in the best place at the minute
Here’s hoping he is home as soon as possible xxx

Hope all goes well for him and he is home soon. Such a worrying time for you. Sending you a hug ??

Sorry to hear that travelsafar. Fingers crossed they can get on top of the problem quickly and send him home later on today.

I’m sorry to hear that travels, I hope your DH is well enough to come home soon.

Sorry to hear your husband is so ill travelsafar. I hope he’ll be home soon. Stay safe and take care of yourself.

Sending good wishes

Ah what a shame ! Hopefully the hospital will treat him quickly and he will be home with you later. They won’t keep him long unless absolutely necessary. ?

So sorry travelsafar but under the circumstances he is in the best place to stabilise him. Seems like you have an excellent GP and NHS 111 did absolutely the right move in sending an ambulance too.
Rest assured, they won't keep him in hospital any longer than they need to.
Sending best wishes to you both. ?

Sorry to hear that. I hope he gets well.

So sorry to hear this. You have done all you can and he is in the right place for now. After the stress and worry of the last couple of days do try and just take a moment or two for yourself so that you will feel refreshed and ready to continue caring for him when he comes home. You need to be fit and well too!
Here’s hoping they ‘get him sorted’ quickly and you will be welcoming him home soon.

I’m sorry travelsafar
Your DH is in the best place until he’s breathing easier.
Please take care of yourself and try not to worry. He’ll be home before you know it and in much better health. Best wishes to you both ?

Sending you both all my good wishes. I do hope your DH is home soon.

Hope he will be home soon. Try to have some rest while he is being looked after

I hope he will be home soon. I have lung problems so understand his problems. It sounds as though you have a good GP. Our surgery is not manning the phones.

travelsafar, I was sent to hospital by my GP with exactly the same symptoms (also have COPD) on Monday 14th. Lots of oxygen, rest and tests, and allowed home on Thursday 17th.

Sending every good wish to you and your dh.

So many GN's or their other halves have been hospitalised over the festive season. Good wishes to all of you and hope you are feeling better soon.

My husband's story was similar to that of your's and pheonix.
He was in for just over a week, but he also had pneumonia.
His treatment in hospital was excellent.
Please PM me if you would like.
Pheonix good to see you about again, and I hope that you are feeling much better.
for travelsafar and pheonix x

I'm sorry your DH is in hospital. I hope he is able to come home to you quickly.

Sorry to hear your husband is ill in hospital travelsafar. He’ll have a full assessment now and hopefully they will soon have his condition stabilised.

In the meantime, try to rest yourself while you wait for his return home. You must be very tired after coping with events of recent days ?

thank you for all good wishes and messages of support. Just spoke to nurse and she said they have done blood and covid tests and now waiting to have chest xray done. Also the medical team are going to assess him so if i ring back in a while i should fine out if he is staying in or coming home. He is so scared and of course i cant be with him or even visit. But i do know he is in he best place.

Sorry about that travelsafar You should let him stay until he is well enough to come home. Last year I had an appointment with the doctor (I have Bronchiectasis) who told me I had to go straight to hospital. I actually thought I'd be back later that day, but I was in ICU on Oxygen for about 2 days then an ordinary ward for 3 days. I think the only reason I was let out is because I kept telling them I was fine - and I was!!

Sorry to hear about that travelsafar. They will try and stabilise the irregularity and with oxygen therapy too providing other tests are okay, you'll have him home. I send you my best wishes in the hope he'll be returned to you soon

It's just over a year since I was hospitalised with an irregular heartbeat as I have A/F, though oxygen levels remain normal at 98% so lung output is normal with no COPD or anything. I'm a bit of a mystery, but always have to be " blue-lighted " on admission.
