Home?

I spoke to DB yesterday morning, he had spent the night on a trolly and was moved to Glenfield at 5.30am by ambulance. He was still on a trolley at lunch time.

I rang at 6pm to be told he was doing ok!! Why did I not believe the nurse, he was not British and I could hardly understand what he was saying.

DB phoned just after 8pm, they had him in a bed, his vertigo has reared its self, passed out, Fortunately the nurse caught him and managed to lower him to the floor.  He has been told that as he gets older he will have more frequent palpiations, there is an override switch on his bedside monitor, he has to press it when they start. The Dr is due to see him again this morning, they may send him home, which will mess up the week, I will have to cancel various things we were going to do. Hey ho thats life. He is better at home.

I had a much better nights sleep, woke just after one, then at 5.30am finally getting up to make tea at 7.30. Did not actually get up till 9am.

Have watered the greenhouse and opened the vents, just has my breakfast melton, toast and a large mug of coffee. I will wait until I have heard from DB before I go up to the Post Office. so it may be lunch time before I get there.

Update....

Phone call this morning from DB. He will not be home for possibly 2 more days, they are looking at other ways of treating him. The Dr did confirm however that having his ears syringed before his hearing appointment is what has set his Vertigo off again. Just hope it does not take too long to right itsself. I can do without having to get him up off the floor every so often.

I am feeling a bit unsettled, not sure why.......
