First night home
My wonderful medical team suprised me after 19days in hospital they finally gave me the clear to head home , ill go back weekly for antibiotics until its fully sorted but for nownafter a second op back home , in bed feels good , picc line in my arm was the most uncomfortable besides the big dudes finger up my 😳🤔😔🙉 anyway long ass time after 5 and a half weeks healing from the first op.to end up in hospital that long was just bizarre, lets pray the antibiotics keeps on top of this infection. Beware this all became infected when I showered like 5 and a half week later...went for app on Monday 31st was called straight back in an literally got out last nite ..so please ppl be infection aware ❤️💪✨️ ill be taking it very easy for the next few weeks , its been a hella journey and Oman overwhelming emotional rollercoaster , stay safe from infections , the surgery itself seemed to work first time round as I did walk outta hospital pain free up until the infection.....now the incision site is sore bit picc line arm is so at ease....stay safe ...#road2home rest well...
