Wishing you a very Happy Birthday Mikey surrounded by the people who mean the most to you.
 
Thanks for the best wishes on the worst birthday I’ve ever had. My wife was admitted to hospital after developing a DVT ( Deep Vein Thrombosis) on Friday after developing right sided chest pain and shortness of breath, initially diagnosed (by me) as a Pulmonary Embolism PE). All this devolved over a short period of time, so a 999 call meant she was taken into the hell of Royal Blackburn Hospital where she spent the best part of three days on a trolley before being admitted to a Ward, and a bed.

So my birthday was spent sitting by a hospital bed, with a very bored wife, who is now on blood thinners treatment, and no longer breathless and waiting on various tests, CT scans, Ultrasound scans. One thing will benefit - she will be seen by the orthopaedic consultant for her arthritis in the left hip, and right knee to see if there is blood in the joint to precipitate the DVT. So I don’t know when she will get home. Knowing, of course, that another PE could well be terminal event. Mind you, she was in the same position 23 years ago when she had a subarachnoid haemorrhage (two in a short few days) and I was called in at 08.00 to Peston Neurological Wards cos she wasn’t expecting to survive that day. She’s spent the last 23 years becoming normal apart from right sided mild weakness and speech difficulty, proving the doctors predictions wrong in her potential. And our brains use whatever they can adapt to function near normally.
 
So sorry to read of your situation, but wishing your wife a very speedy recovery.
 
Oh no @mikeyB !!

What an awful situation for you both :(

Very best wishes to your wife for a speedy recovery, and prompt attention for her scans, checks, and treatment for her hip.
 
So sorry to hear about Mrs B Mike. Here’s hoping she’ll get the correct treatment and be home soon. Don’t forget to look after yourself too. Hugs to you both.
 
Oh, I’m sorry to hear that, @mikeyB , I hope Mrs.B continues along her path to recovery.
 
Happy birthday
