This disease can take a sudden turn for the worse, if you’re home you may hope it’ll pass rather than rush back to the hospital. By the time you realize it’s not passing, it may be too late. Self monitoring is a lousy position to be in with this disease.
I agree it isn’t ideal, but I don’t know how the hospitals should really do anything differently. They need the space and staff to deal with more severe cases.
I wouldn’t want to be sent home with it.
