@DavidPenington 😁 I&#39;m surprised that the connection is a simple push fit pipe. Why not a bayonet mount?

@DavidPenington Four bags in 24 hours. Not sure what is happening. Urologists are being summoned.

Facing all manner of challenges here. ☹️ Woken up at 4:45 this morning for a blood test. Postural blood pressure is very low preventing me from doing physio E.coli detected in my urine so they want to put me on antibiotics again. Catheter removed so I need to use a bottle 🥺 which I am not at all confident about because of the injuries I have suffered And they&#39;re thinking about putting me back on the thyroid medication that I believe started me on this shitshow

@oberonsghost Thanks. I was in a very belligerent mood this morning following the early morning wake up (I&#39;ve let the doctor know of my displeasure about not being informed of this prior to the event) but the absence of answers about my BP is very disconcerting.

Brilliant minds in play.😖 My bed is needed for a transplant patient. Fair enough. So they&#39;re moving me to a new ward. Infectious diseases. I had a fucking stroke! You can&#39;t catch a stroke! I should be moved to the stroke or a rehab ward. Fucking idiots. To be clear: all of the issues that I&#39;ve experienced thus far have been down to poor management or mismanagement. Gross incompetence. The nursing staff are excellent. Gold. But the disgraceful food quality. The ch...
