The 'I need a distraction' thread.

[Cacoethes]

I did!

Oh no :(
I really hope you start to feel better soon
Have you told the nurses?

[chinahorse]

Morning guys. Hope you all slept well and wishing you all a good day.

[Cacoethes]

Morning Lillie

I got woken up to have a mental health act assessment so that's fun. They are discussing me now.
Also got woken up at 7am for blood sugars which were low so I had to have nasty glucogel which made me feel sick.
It's only 10 and its not been a great day already!

How are you?

[chinahorse]

Oh dear. Maybe try to keep having sugary coffee regularly to avoid the glucogel?

I got woken up by a rude consultant who changed the plan disnt tell me why and walked off before I could ask.

[Cacoethes]

Probably a good idea!
I've been put on a section 3 now. Even though I said I'd stay informally. Dammit.

How rude Lillie!
Can you ask the nurses to explain what he said properly?

[chinahorse]

Sorry it's not what you want beckie.

I cried on the nurses. Who were kind.

[chinahorse]

I've eaten like 289 biscuits :/

[one_step_closer]

Boo to bad mornings. :( I hope your days improve.

Better eat another to round that up Lillie!

[chinahorse]

Omg movicol is rank.

[Cacoethes]

Im glad the nurses were kind.
That makes all the difference sometimes

I agree with lindsay!!

Hope your day is going better!

Funnily enough there's a cup of movicol in the clinic room and the hca was saying it looks like vomit

[one_step_closer]

I have no idea what that is but I wouldn't want to drink anything that looked like vomit. :/

Why can't they make things more pleasant?!

[chinahorse]

It smelt like fake lemons. And has made me feel sick.

[one_step_closer]

Eww. Poor you. I hope you feel better soon. Can you eat another biscuit to disguise the taste?

[chinahorse]

I agree Lindsay! They can put men on the moon so why can't they make medicine taste ok?

And movicol is a laxative drink.

[one_step_closer]

Someone left their drink next to the cups of plain water one time when I was in hospital and I accidentally had a tiny sip and it was yuck.

That salty stuff that you have to drink if you have low potassium is worse though. I had to drink it a couple of times and then found out that they had read my blood results wrong or something so I didn't even need it in the first place.

[chinahorse]

Ewwwwww. And yeah I just ate like 4 bananas instead.

[tamobhuuta]

I take movicol, you get used to it.

[Cacoethes]

I don't know why they can't make all medicine taste like strawberry calpol. That stuff was nice!
My liquid meds taste disgusting.

[tamobhuuta]

Strawberry calpol is ace

[Cacoethes]

It really is!!
The sugar free stuff isn't as nice though
