hard time

hello, well I'm having a very hard time. Went back in hospital Sun. could'nt breath so I went to closes hospital as instructed, which was Dekalb medical Hillendell. Bad choice. They was suppose to admitt and trancfer to Atlanta Medical stayed 27hrs. with no assistance finally walked out late last night. I'm so tired, can't get anything down but pop sicles and ice. I did find out my lungs has some swelling and muscle spasams. Please tell me what I can do for some energy, and maybe something else to eat. can't do chicken broth, was doing apple juice can't anymore.I know someone in my good old family can help (HELP) please

Please get in touch with your doctor! This sounds a bit too much for just online advice hun. Please please call. Kia

thanks so much, my docor had been contacted i hope things from here on out goes a lot better, again thanks

Call Dr. D's office now and make them get you Dr. Fields or Shannon and just be persitant until they get someone for you to talk to. I called there my first day home from the hospital with a potentally serious problem and they kept telling me everyone was in clinical and I told them someone needs to come out of clinical and talk to me now and they finally got DR. Fields I had to hold about 10 min. thank God it was an emergency (I would have called 911 if it were). You cannot fool around with this sort of thing, get help. I also called after hours and had to have the on call Doc call me (this was about a week out). I know I sound like nervous Nelly but I really did have a couple of potentially serious problems, lucky all turned out fine (after meds). je

hello thank so much. you are right you have to really stay on everyone there. they are very good but this last leg of my journey i have not been to happy with them. again thanks so much

Hi Deborah, I hope you called thre Doctor's office about the breathing thing. As far as the liquids, have you tried hot tea with splenda, or the sf popsicles or frozen fruit bars. I didn't like broth either, but I would take some broth from a can of chicken noodle soup, which tasted a little better than plain broth. Good luck.

hello Melissa, Thank for the advise.the breathing has been taken care of, it was from the pain meds. the hot tea worked wonders, i have been doing really good with popsicles, fruit bars and fudge bars. today i'm going to try the chicken soup. i take everything out of of meds. cup and my granbaby has figured out i can't eat all food so she sits and wait a few min. and says you threw so she can eat again thanks.
