OK...well I still remain off work which I am glad about. I visited the consultant last month and although I was tired and still suffered with pain I didn't reckon I was going to hear the words...
"Oh dear"..... your Xray appears worse and you either have another pneumonia or a huge collection of fluid on the lung".
FOR FUCKS SAKE!!!
Off I go to emergency CAT scan which thankfully thankfully thankfully was more promising and indicated that I did in fact have a collection of fluid(pleural effusion) but it was modest. The good thing about this is that Dr didn't feel we needed to drain it off......which means NO FUCKING CHEST DRAIN PEOPLE. This pleased me no end.....because i fucking LOATH chest drains. The pain is unspeakable.
I gets another checkup in a few weeks and also in another month. One by the surgeon and one by the physician and then fingers crossed I can start thinking about returning to work.
This means this entire drama is encroaching on a full year.
