Where has evil gone?
By JC on 07/04/2008
I will do this in 2 parts, the short succint part will be in italics so if you dont really want to know just read that 
I was taken to hospital seriously ill on tuesday (if you recall gorge I left IRC suddenly saying I was feeling ill.... well...) and have spent basically 7 days in hospital being fed IV etc.
I am on doctors orders not to return to work for at least another fortnight and I have been taken out of university for the rest of this term by my parents, and will be spending that fornight at home (with dial up). My meds mean I cannot go on RS because looking at a PC screen for too long makes me feel like crap.
The longer story:
Basically, I got something called Diabetic Keto Acidosis/DKA (I am a Type 1 diabetic for all those that didnt know) which results when you have a high blood sugar for a long period of time. They think I probably had food poisoning and because I didnt eat/have my injections that day I got DKA which caused severe vomiting. This resulted in me tearing my asophagus (or however you spell it, throat in laymans terms) and getting a significant amount of air in my chest).
Hence I spent a short amount of time in Intensive Care then basically all week in a high dependency ward on IV 'food' and Oxygen.... I was not a happy person, and by the end of the week I had lost over 10KG's (I normally weigh about 75KG's, so thats allot). I am now on some pretty strong antibiotics because they think it is possible that I may have got some stomach fluids into my chest cavity around my Heart and Lungs and obviously this would be a huge infection risk.
The main problem with all this is I can not fly for the next 3 months in case there is a pocket of air still there (you dont want air by your Heart, Lungs and Throat while flying.... who would have guessed) so I will now have to drive home and back in the holidays (its a 550km drive) and I will also have allot of work to catch up on for uni as I had 2 assignments due over the next week and they obviously havent been done.
I should, all going well, be back in 2 weeks but I will also have allot of course work to catch up on, so realistically it will be a good 3 weeks before I can be my happily training self, though I will be in IRC..... goddam I'm 40k off 90 attack
Seeya in 2 weeks

Just got told why I haven't heard of anyone getting this (and why all the hospital 'consultants' came to see me).... Since 1920 there has been 22 confirmed cases of this worldwide....

Ffs of course you said you were feelin ill, really suddenly and just left
God I had no idea, you were a diabetic, but it's a good thing your body told you (by being ill) before you seriously did a lot of damage.
Anyway take care of yourself and get better soon

I came back just in case you carried out this threat
Actually they cant figure out what is wrong apart from that they think may have put a second whole in there or re-split the first one, they say there is no point keeping me in hospital anyway.
I'm back
