Symptom 2 - Part 4: A Night at the hospital and home-coming

During the rest of that night, in common with hospital stays everywhere, I think a different person was in my room every 30 minutes to check serum levels, blood pressure, bring dinner, clear away dinner...
By the time 11pm came around, I was tired enough to be almost asleep, at which point another nurse came in, woke me up and gave me a sleeping tablet...

I suppose everyone should know by now, you don't go to hospital to rest.
I think at 5.30 I was woken again for a blood pressure test, and then at 7.30 for breakfast.

Saturday continued like this with people in and out to tidy the room, make the bed, clean the floor, take away the breakfast things.
I don't understand why one person cannot do all these tasks, and get the entire faffing about finished in one visit, allowing the patients some privacy and time to rest. Actually, maybe that's part of the plan - prevent us from becoming too comfortable so we try to check ourselves out as soon as possible!

Anyway, by around 11am, I had seen my DR who was asking if, following the first course of the corticosteroids, had there been any improvement yet in the numbness (there hadn't been), and to let me know the second course was coming soon.
