To hospital or not to hospital

To hospital or not to hospital

Hi all,

This is from part of a conversation i was having with @BryanaCamp on another thread and it was suggested that this might be a more appropriate place for it as more ppl wld see it. So here it is....

Things r ridiculously tough here. I think im close to hospital but absolutely petrified at the thought. Im jusst not getting better. They keep telling me to up meds but it doesnt help. I might b better for 1 night then the next day and beyond, things just get worse. Im at my wits end and just dont know what to do. Im so scared if i do go into hospital i wont get ne better neway due to my concerns about the fact that im sensitive to excipients in the medications, so whatever they giv me is going to make me worse and i may never get out of there. Just so scared and dont know what to do. Things cant keep going on like this.

Has anyone bn hospitalised and If so wld u say it was beneficial for u and resulted in an improvement in ur condition and/or the treatment of ur condition, or not? I am interested in ppl's experiences and whether a stint in hospital was successful in their illness being better managed.

Thanks all.

Thanks too @TAB

Hi @Eden1919 , thanks for ur post on the 25th. That makes sense as to why they discharged me just before 3 weeks even tho I was, and still am in an absolutely terrible state. Even other patients cldnt believe they were discharging me in the state I was in. I am in a rly rly bad way.

@Doglover its ok I am sorry you are really not going well I find hospitals very hard as for me they tend to make things worse and then when i go back home it has been so disruptive it just really ruins everything. and i understand needing more support but for me hospital is not the right model so i often have to decided is it better to put up with things at home or go to hospital and risk making things even worse and after trying the hosptial thing so many times i decided that putting up with it at home was still better long term. thats not to say you should stop trying if you feel it would help but perhaps try and look into other ways you can increase your support if possible. sorry i am not much help i hope you feel better soon.

Re: To hospital or not to hospital

Your welcome @Doglover . I'm so sorry things haven't gotten any better for you. Do you think you will be going back to hospital or are you going to try and get through at home? I hope your symptoms aren't getting to much worse, what you have described previously is horrendous and bad enough. I can only imagine what its doing to you.

Thanks for replying to my post, I know it must be hard.

Wish I could offer you something constructive. A lot of us are praying for you.
