mouse_chalk not around for a little bit...

[mr_mouse_chalk]

Hi everybody,

Jen (Mouse_Chalk) asked me to post here to let people know she wont be around for a little while.

She's been suffering with glandular fever, but now it's turned into tonsillitus as well - and she can't even swallow liquids
As a result she's been sent into hospital for the night to be filled up with some fluids and drugs to help her recover...

She is doing well though and already feeling better than she did when she went in a few hours ago.

Mouse and Barney have taken the news particularly badly - and were quite depressed until Carrots and herbs cheered them right up. Hopefully Jen will be back home before we run out of placebo vegetables...

Hi guys, I'm home now Very drugged up so sorry if this doesnt make sense but then im a perfectionist so will probably persevere until it is lol.

It was pretty scary. My tonsils and my whole throat swelled up to the point that i could no longer even drink. I cried pretty much all day from the pain- well, as much as you can cry with that amount of pain in your mouth! My mum came round at 4pm, took one look at me and called the doctors. He then got another doctor to examine me, called the hospital and sent me down. I kept choking on phlegm (sorry, gross) as my airway was so small and my tonsils were covered in pus. They reminded me a little of Chalk's stomach when she had all those little abscesses

The list of stuff I've had since last night:

IV Steroids for the swelling
IV paracetomol
IV metronidazole (antibiotics) 3 times
IV fluids twice


Tramadol, diclufenic, paracetomol for the pain :shock: All soluble cos I couldn't swallow

And this morning they gave me critical care AKA sloppy weatabix because my blood pressure was on the floor, because I hadnt eaten since monday night :? luckily it picked up after i'd had breakfast. the pain meds REALLY helped, as long as I keep taking them. I can now swallow water and eat a little bit of food as long as it's soft and warm. Drank 3 litres of water today

I'm still on all the crazy pain meds and antibiotics and am to stay that way for the next few days at least- a week for the antibiotics.

Apparently now that I've had the steroids the swelling shouldn't return, but straight back down there if it does. My mouth still looks pretty swollen and pus-y, but not nearly as bad as it was.

I GOT 3 HOURS SLEEP!!!!! :bunnydance: First sleep since Saturday night!


I fear I'm rambling now so I'll end this! Thank you all so much for your good thoughts. I had a TV/internet/phone thingy by my bed and logged on earlier and I could read your comments but didnt have the energy to reply. Thank you :hug:


All that for just tonsilitis eh? :? I swear to god my health record is getting ridiculous now! :?
