Okay so fun morning this morning. They started trying to find a vein at 9.35 this morning and gave up at 12.30! 9 goes - 2 nurses, 2 clinical specialists and an ultrasound machine and they couldn’t find a vein to put in the isotope for the bone scan. I am now full of holes – maybe I will leak when I have a bath! The new plan is to go back and have a bed on a ward with the specialists - having had a warm bath, wearing gloves and a thick coat (me not the specialists!). Ho hum!
On the plus side I spent the morning with lovely people all trying their best to make my life easier. I had an offer of a proposal, told I was lovely and described as a very patient lady. Not sure how else you could be when it is nobodies fault!
Glad to have my lovely husband holding my hand and discussing the weather while I sang as they poked me. I think I may have used up all their tiny needles!
On a lighter note I am glad to have tennis to watch on TV and an engineer coming on Wednesday hopefully to mend internet.
So sorry about that Anne. No wonder the staff love you - you are so positive and fun. You did well to sing while they poked you! Can understand having a bath, but gloves and a thick coat.......

They want me to be as warm as possible and to stay warm! Not sure how much it will help as I wasn't cold yesterday! But we will try! Praying that today's PICC line goes better.
ReplyDeleteAnne, praying that it is successful today and that you keep your spirits up, lots of love, Fiona xx
