Hi Lisa, I admit hospital beds are nothing like the Dorchesters but once you're sorted you'll be able to go home to your own home comforts, something to look forward to 🙂I doubt you'll be discharged before your bgls are in safe range tho so do try to be patient. What are you being given in the way of meals? x

Been offered lots of different things but mainly been sticking to different salads and soup not to bad x
 
Hey Lisa how are you feeling today? xx
 
Not great .. really need my own bed so noisy at nite here ! Bs coming down from 20s to 14s now but stil no hope going home til at least under 10s xx
 
Do they have you on a sliding scale? It was the same when I was in, the guy in the next bed shouted all night, the nurses did offer me ear plugs but there was no point as they were checking my levels every half hour to an hour, hope they come below 10 soon for you! xx
 
You never know! I don't know what my levels were like while I was in as they never told me but I wasn't even in 24 hours x
 
Im sure your daughter will be happy to have you well Lisa you can celebrate her birthday another day.

Stitch is right, if you were my mum all I'd care about was you getting better 🙂
If you are local to them then she should be able to visit you for a cup of tea (but no cake lol!)

Not in our hospital - they don't offer drinks to visitors when they bring the trolley round these days, I was gobsmacked when Pete was in. I most likely wouldn't have wanted one anyway, but it just seems unfriendly.

Sorry, only just seen this thread. Sorry that your numbers are so high and you are in hospital. Keeping my fingers crossed that you will be out tomorrow to celebrate your daughter's birthday.
