Hi all, Yesterday wow what a day as you all know I have serious RA and have been having some seroius problems just lately. have been unable to get proper sleep as pain Meds are starting to fail. so 5 am Sunday morning I got dressed( no easy task) an went for a short walk. Then i walked to my parents house, only about a mile then back to mine. I had said to my Dad that I would go for a pint (1st in 3 month) so i gets in to the club had only drank about Half a pint and I started to feel ILL so I went ouside was sick then I collapsed with chest pain 999 ambulance to Hospital. Checks tests questions. relief it was not a heart attack but a serious flare in my chest. got relaesed today. Whilst i was in Chest Pain Assesment at Newcastle RVI I was treat like Royalty the sister who was called Deborah was an ANGEL she was fantastic this was to evertone in the ward. These ladies and gents deserve Medals. I was overcome with their genuine care and resorsefulness. Anyway I am back home a little shocked at what at the time seemed like my last breaths. JUST A BIG THANKS TO ALL THE NURSES WE COME INTO CONTACT WITH. ANGELS :D

    Glad to hear the you are recovering and were looked after so well in hospital. You hear so many negative reports these days.
    I was a nurse for 26 years and loved every bit of it. Every admission I have had, the staff have been just fabulous, mind you, as soon as they know I was a ward manger, they put me in a side room and are very wary, LOL.
    Take care....

    LOL. No, I wouldn't expect any preferential treatment, each patient should receive the same level of care. It just makes me chuckle each time I have been an in-patient. Usually we end up talking shop, once they realise I am not going to bite. I have never complained about having a side room though. 8)

    Hi John

    So relieved to hear that you got such excellent treatment and that you are home now again. There are a lots of many dedicated and lovely people about. The angels were looking out for you, for sure even before you got to the hospital.

    Luv

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.
