LOL

Oh well !!


I found out they attach sensors to my chest (they'll have to shave me) abdomen (ooooh)...head, body and legs.

They'll be a probe (easy now !) attached to my finger all night to measure my oxygen level !!

Well, there's a science question right there...how do they measure oxygen level via my finger ?

Anyway.....I am going to sign off now and will let you know how I get on and whom I get up !!!...YAYYYYYYYY !!


hugs and thanks for keeping me company during this waking stint !!

Wocha Peeps,

Well, ..me arrived at the hospital at 20:15.

They said me was too early so I popped out for a bit to eat !!..I had a foot long sub from subway  !!..LOL

Ok...popped back to hospital and went through all the rigmarole of being weighed, filling in forms answering questions etc.

took them half an hour to put all the stuff on me !!...Honestly...if you're into Star Trek The Next Generation then  you'll understand what I mean when I say that I ended up looking like a Borg !!.....

..I sneakingly brought my sleepy tabs with me and after chatting with them they said it was oK !!...YAYYYYYYYY !!

Took my tabs and went to bed about midnight....fell asleep about 1:30 and woke up at ten minute intervals...then finally managed a whole hour. at 3am I was awake until 4:30am...it was sooooooooo hot...I just slept on top of the bed and had to sleep on my back only...anyway/...at 6:30am this morning they woke me up , me had a shower. had a breaky and they took some bloods and I was outta there by 8ish !...

I think they got some good data !!...me now goes back there next week for this nasendoscopy !!..oh joy !!


*le sigh*...my fears were founded !!..Les Nuresies were *polite mode * Not my cup of tea !!..nice to chat with !!.....even self-raising flour would have some issues here !!!...

LOL....suffice it to say I am knackered once more ...!!..fingers crossed for a revelation !!

Hugs & Shmishes

Neil

Awwww, well hopefully with the data they got they might get to the root or something.
Sorry the nursies weren't that great, maybe some other time they will be though  [;)]

I think the nurses at the hospital I go to aren't that bad at all. Sometimes I feel like doing my knee in just to see them again. Although I think they might catch on after another 5 times or so  [;)]

Great to have you back though  [:X]

They probably had the nice nursies when I went to the hospital just to tease me knowing that I wouldn't be able to chase them  [;)]

Awwww, Sir blurry eyes  [:(]  [:X]
When you have a break get a couple of slices of cucumber and rest your eyes with those on  [;)]
