Hi all, 

I think im putting this as I really just need somewhere to put that I really am fed up. 

I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer in March, I had a total hysterectomy and oophectomy done 17 days ago, when they took the catheter out I went into retention and my bladder stretched to hold 1.5litres . Needless to say after a 2nd catheter I started with a uti but I managed to go home without a catheter. 

Was on Antibiotics but after a week I still had symptoms so GP changed me over. 

1/7 the symptoms returned with a vengeance. Not wanting to cause a bother to a very busy A&e and I waited for the GP the next day.  I later ended up in A&e, sat waiting as a long wait and so I ended up in resus with sepsis. 

I am still sat on a gynae ward have Antibiotics pumped in as I have an uncontrollable fever. As soon as the paracetamol runs out it shoots through the roof. Nobody can find a cause for it. I still have abdo pain and have been here for nearly week and seen that many people come and go yet I cant go home yet.  The Dr just told me I wouldn't still be here if I didnt need to be here, on one hand I want to go home, yet on the other I need to know why I am spiking temps. Worse thing is that they dont know either. 

Fed up, cheesed off, worried it may be something nasty but my provisional stage is only stage 1a grade 2 so I very much doubt it, and very tired after 6 days of limited sleep.
