Nightmare Derek hope it all turns out ok

Bloody hell Derek, I can understand you worry, I pray that they are being over cautious.
As Spurs said what a nightmare, hope she's back home shortly

Sorry to hear that.  My daughter is a physio there I’ve been locked in 7 weeks and had to miss her physio for my lung condition. She has even moved to live on her own in the city to protect the family. They are brilliant up there . Really hope it’s a false alarm and very best wishes.

Many thanks all.

The ambulance team told me to phone after four hours which I did. I asked if she was negative but was told the results will not be known for three days. They have admitted her and are going to do further tests this morning. She had been unwell for over a week and she is normally very active and never goes to the Doctors.  I insisted last Monday she contacted the Doctor whom gave a consultation on the phone. On Wednesday I was concerned her condition was worsening so I phone again only to have the same consultation over the phone. Yesterday evening I was getting concerned so I phoned 111 and they sent a Doctor around to check her out. He said she had a temperature and her oxygen level who low and he would arrange for an ambulance to take her into hospital for tests. When the paramedics arrived and did further tests they said she had several of the Coronavirus symptoms and that was why the Doctor had arranged to have her taken to hospital.

It was the time the whole road was clapping for the NHS and we had to go one better with an ambulance parked outside etc. Although she is obviously unwell (sick) I cannot believe she has the coronavirus as she hasn't left our house for seven weeks unless I have picked it up as a carrier but not actually had any ill effect. I have felt 100% since the virus first emerged.

At least she is in the right place and hopefully they will find out why she is feeling so ill and her oxygen level was low etc.

My thoughts are with you. If she's been home all that time I am confident it's a false alarm! Stay strong.

Hi Everyone

Update I have just received a call from the Doctor who is treating her at Salisbury Hospital The test results have come back negative and they think she has pneumonia which she has responded well to the treatment. She is eating and off oxygen and likely to come home today. What a relief for one moment I thought I was going to run out of clean plates etc and actually have  do the washing up myself.

Thanks again for the kind comments given.
