My blogs have been a little thin on the ground recently, mainly because I haven't really felt up to writing a great deal, I'm feeling less tired at the moment but I'm still on that downward slope of feeling worse and worse every day, hopefully it'l be one week getting worse and then one week getting better but the Doctor's can't really give you a timescale when its different for everybody.
My throat's getting more painful but I'm on a lot of painkillers so it's pretty manageable at the moment and there's always the liquid morphine to go on to when it gets really bad.
Starting to get used to being in isolation now, it sucks being hooked up to the machines all night, especially being on the nasal gastric feeds for 10 hours. I'm eating bits and pieces, cereal, chips, toast, as well as the build-up shakes and ice cream.
The nurse just gave me a chart of my blood results over the last few days, my haemoglobin is sticking around 10 which is good, my neutrophils are down to 0.08 so not quite all the way down yet. Apparently they'll hit zero then I'll get an infection and then they'll pump me full of antibiotics.
It's just a waiting game really, my family and my girlfriend are here a lot so I'm not on my own much. I tend to just spend all my time watching films and comedy series, not a bad way to spend the day.
