Usually with CF when we have a really bad infection that cant be shifted with normal oral antibiotics we get given a two weeks or more course of IV antibiotics either given to us through a PICC line which is in our arm or a port (if you have one).
There are usually two IV antibiotics we have and we are connected to the drip machine while the medicine enters our line.
The meds are given three times a day at 6am, 2pm and 10pm.
While we are not on the drip the fun doesn't stop...most of us have a morning pills to take which can take a while to get through and then once we are done the physios come...FUN...
With the physios we go to the gym in the morning and they watch us run and do other gym stuff and then in the afternoon they go through our individual physio routines with us.
For me that involves the acapella and pep.
Then the drs usually come round to tell us our lung function is shit and then it's all fun and games for the rest of the day...
All I can say is that it isn't fun it's draining and hard and it gets so lonely at times as we can't leave our rooms and we spend a lot of time alone.
But luckly I go to an amazing hospital with the nicest nurses and dr sand physios I could ask for so it does make it easier.
And of course I have an amazing family who visit me constantly and bring me HOME FOOD PRAISE THE LORD.
And I also have some super fab supportive friends who come to see me and they will never know or understand what they mean to me!
And I think that's about it...done on hospitals for now HOLLAAA!
