View Full Version : Out of Hospital - what happened to me and what happens next!

I felt that I needed to do this post now I am out of hospital (got out on Monday this week) and explain what happened to me and what is happening in the future. I will keep it as brief as I can as there is so much that has happened to me but for now I will just outline the details.

As some of you know I was admitted to Stevenage hospital by my GP on Thursday 18th September with a Crohn's flare up and I stayed there until Tuesday the following week when I was transferred to a private hospital for one night. I had been in a lot of pain and was told that I was very very ill at the time.

I got out on Wednesday 24th with some steroids and antibiotics and thought that was the end of it all! I rested at home the next couple of days.

In the early hours of Saturday morning (2.17am to be precise) I was still awake and Alex had just come to bed. I told him that I had some chest pain. It was right in the middle between both breasts and I also had an ache in my right shoulder. We thought it best to call 999 as I had been so poorly the previous week.

The paramedic arrived in 3 minutes - Pretty impressive - followed by an ambulance. They did an ECG and said they were taking me to Bedford hospital for a check-up. I wasn't best pleased about this having just got out of hospital but decided it was for the best.

When I got to A&E they told me I was having a heart-attack there and then!I just burst into tears and couldn't believe it. How could I possibly be having a heart attack at my age? :ohmy: :scared15:

I was thrombalised but it didn't work so they told me I would have to be transferred to Papworth heart hospital for further investigations.

When I got there I had a clot dispersed from one artery and a stent put in.

Later that day I was in so much pain with the Crohn's that they had no choice but to send me back to Bedford as Papworth did not have the medical staff to look after gastric problems.

I was admitted to the Coronary Care Unit for one night but then transferred to CCC (Critical Care Complex - used to be called Intensive Care) early on Sunday morning as I needed close monitoring and one-to-one care.

They put a central line in my neck and I was attached to a heart monitor and blood pressure monitor, had a catheter put in, a tube down my throat to drain "gunk" from my stomach and put on an intravenous drip for fluids. I was in a real mess and loads of pain.

After 4 days I was transferred to a general ward and spent the next 6 weeks there.

I have 4 or 5 abscesses on the outside of my bowel and my uterus and had to have a drain inserted through my abdomen and into the largest of the abscesses to drain the pus off.

This drain was only removed last Friday and I now have a stoma type bag that is stuck on and is still collecting the pus coming from the hole that is still linked to the abscesses.

The surgeons were desperate to operate but couldn't because of the heart attack and hence the long delay in my recovery. The cardiologist has said that they do not want me operated on until at least 3 months and ideally 6.

Since getting out of hospital I have had a lot of pain still and have no idea what the future holds in terms of an operation or more treatment. The doctors are at a loss to know why the abscesses are still draining after 8 weeks and I have had numerous CT scans and Barium X-rays etc.

So for now I am out and at home but waiting to see what happens next.

I understand there was a collection organised on here for me and I will find that post and have a read. Thanks to everyone that donated and I will be buying something with the money so please watch this space.

I owe a huge thanks to Alex who came to the hospital every single day for 8 weeks to see me (sometimes twice a day) and he brought me in everything I needed to keep me occupied and with home comforts. Thanks to all those friends on here that sent cards and text me for updates and sent well wishes and even presents. I was really touched by the sentiments and kindness of everyone.

That's all for now if you managed to read this far! I will update again when I have news on what happens to me next.

Blimey. I'm new here but Mike mentioned you'd "been in hospital for a bit".... but that's pretty intense. Hope there is some improvement soon.

Don't work too hard at anything - even the forum - for a bit. You're likely to be fairly week after all those weeks of hospital food & bedrest even without the impact of your illnesses.

Nic

I will NEVER forget finding out what had happened to you. When i heard the words 'Heart Attack' i froze, to know that a dear friend was so ill was a nightmare to say the least. I also thought 'but why?', she is far too young to be having this sort of thing but you had been so poorly leading up to this and i suppose this would have contributed.

Just want to let people know how damn brave and strong you have been though all of this, the Crohns, the absesses and the heart attack, all the procedures, the up's and the downs, having to be away from home for so long, going without food, all the setbacks ect. You have been amazing gal, you really have.

I am so happy you are home and truely on the road to recovery. And well done for giving up all the things you have had to. (bloomin docs) Lol


Love you loads mate

Ive been away since 20th so only read your message today nic. Sorry to hear youve had such a bad time, but glad that you're now at home again. Strangely enough, you might remember me telling you about my brother who's also a crohn's sufferer. He also had a heart attack quite young at age 46, the same thing, coronary thrombosis, and they gave him meds to disperse the clot. Wonder if crohn's is the link? He recovered fully and I wish you a speedy recovery too.

More prayers have been said across the pond that you can imagine and I'm so very thankful that you are home once again. I can't imagine the ordeal that you have been through but I know if anyone can get through all of this it will be you with Alex at your side. Please know if I can help in any small way I will and that your job now is to rest and gain strength. I am always amazed that no matter what you go through you still are able to support NMP. We are all here because of you and Alex. I hope you both know how much you both mean to all of us.

Thanks to everyone for the lovely replies, thoughts and well wishes. It means a lot to me :D

I am still in a lot of pain and the abscesses are still draining but the heart is fine and I am generally doing ok.

I certainly look upon things differently now and things that used to be important aren't and life is suddenly more important than it ever was. I have no idea when I am back at work but I doubt it will be before 2009 so I have a few more weeks to chill and get better first.

Thanks again :yesyes:

Apologies for my lateness in adding my well wishes to this thread, I have been a bit preoccupied lately.
You have obviously been through an awful time and the fact that you make time to come and check your baby (NMP:D ) shows how much you care about the forum and everyone who uses it. Be rest assured that it's in good hands and make sure you take the time you need to recover properly!

Nicola - mine was caused by a blood clot in one of the arteries and it wasn't excrutiatingly painful but I knew it wasn't my usual chest pain that I get with anxiety. Also my right arm/shoulder was aching and I have never had that before.

It was not a sharp pain that came and went it was constant.

As soon as the paramedics did the ECG they knew it was a heart attack but didn't tell me so as to not worry me I guess. I didn't know until I got to the hospital and they told me.

You are not a pain at all but I wouldn't worry at your age honestly. I had been ill with Crohn's the week before and some of the doctor's have said that the stress of that on my body could have cause the heart attack and others have said it was "lifestyle" issues. I guess we will never know for sure.

I had been laying in hospital for a week so a clot could have easily formed and gone to the heart.

If the pain comes and goes then I wouldn't worry.

I have pain like that once before in the middle of my chest and I was in tears with it and I had to sit and rub it to get any relief. It turned out to be acid indigestion/reflux but was agony! You could have that as well maybe?

thanks Nic, i guess im working myself up into a state being back in work and that. i worry due to all this stress that im making my heart weak, then when i get pain im so terrified.
ive had a ecg in the passed they just commited on how fast my heart rate was but nothing else. but i worry that was a long time ago a ecg cant tell u if your going to have one. i have heart problems in the family to i guess i shouldnt smoke but i do.
i also have ibs but thats nothing really like chrones, you have it a hell of a lot worse. well nic thanks for the reply im glad your ok now, or as well as you can be i guess. its just we seem to be alike with this anxiety and i freeked out when i read it.
take care

just signed in and read this as my first posting.... really moved me good luck to a full recovery, these things are sent to try the best people.

Please remember that you have to find some joy in the recovery to keep you going. hopefully will get to know you over a period of time to see how you are coping. Having a mild panic at the mo and found this place.

Nicola - I think I was just very very unlucky in some ways and in other ways it has made me think a lot differently about life and things.

I am seeing the Crohn's consultant tonight so hopefully things will be on the up.

Scared - welcome aboard and hope we can be of some help.
