Of course I was put in quarantine till they decided I was flu free chest xray revealed I had a collapsed lung FUCK so a wee op to insert a tube into the left lung and train it...because the repritory ward had a flu scare I was addmitted to cardiac ward at 1.30am not alot of sleep had but was bloody nice to be able to breath.
