I was in the hospital on Sunday. Second time in two months. Once you’re in the gown and hooked up nurses don’t like you getting out of bed. It’s the old urine jug or bed pan.
I was bedridden for 3 months, wheelchair for another 3 months. I could barely walk around the room, with help from the broken leg in a physical therapy hospital. The amazing thing is everyone else there were 80+ year old women, and this was a fairly upscale place. I even asked if they’d seen anyone under 50 and they couldn’t remember.
But anyway, I’d had IVs for relatively minor things too and I wouldn’t be able to move that much, even when it’s disconnected.
Bummer about your health. I pray you are feeling better today.
