Hi Folks,


I am new to this site and so happy that a friend told me about you guys!


I have just been released from a week of hell in the hospital. I would normally avoid going into a hospital at all costs but my appendix put pay to that. I am sure that all of the nurses thought I was barmy! ( could be right )


I ended up having the worst week of my life, I felt like a fool for not being able to cope with other people and myself being ill. I had to keep the curtains around my bed closed and my radio on full blast all of the time, I made my hubby bring my own cup and things in and would only drink bottled water or juice. No way was I ever going to eat any of the the food they presented me with, I ended up having to get long suffering hubby to make me a sandwich at home to eat. I have never been so scared of anything in my life. I am still not sleeping because I think about it all of the time it is pretty awful the things I had to deal with but I wont go into detail here.


Is anyone else this scared and neurotic when it comes to going into hospital? how do you cope? I just know that no matter how ill I might feel in the future there is no way they will get me near a hospital, not for love no money.
