Am home now. They said that my oxygen level overnight went down on average to 92-3% but this is acceptable. They sent me for more blood tests - iron, thyroid, vit D, b12 and then sent me home! Also my blood pressure is still stupidly high 152/100 and I had a massive nosebleed in hospital

It's helpful that if you had to get a nosebleed, that it was during your hospital visit. Glad you're home safe!

I have been having a lot of nosebleeds lately, one on most days. My reading did go below 92, but that was an average. Was boiling hot in hospital and I only got 5 hours broken sleep. Am home now.

I used to get regular nosebleeds, when I used to drink Guinness regularly. I don't think that is your issue of course, Marianne!
A shame you didn't get a sound sleep in but understandable. I assume you sleep better/longer at home!

I do like guinness, but I only drink it on special occasions. I rarely drink anymore.

I've had half-a-glass of buck's fizz in the past three years (it was last Christmas). I never made a decision not to drink alcohol, I just sort of stopped.

Me too. Alcohol just makes me feel too ropey. Even one glass gives me massive headaches

Rough that you didn't sleep that well M, that's me, i don't sleep well anyway but being somewhere strange i have no hope Although not nice it was maybe a good thing that you had the nose bleed for them to see what's going on with that. Good they are checking those other things, my OH was constantly tired and getting breathless walking up hills/stairs a blood test revealed low B12 and Vit D, after 6 weeks on tablets for this he is feeling much better already.
