[medical/emergency]
[I wish i'd listened to everyone telling me to go to the hospital sooner. My condition was very bad but I am stable now except unfortunately my hand had to be removed due to contracting sepsis from the infection. My doctor advised me to go to the hospital 2 days ago but I thought I could wait it out till the end of the day. The fever symptoms got worse throughout the day and I think I entered a comatose state. I only remember being rushed to the hospital and then waking up yesterday night. When my girlfriend came home from work she found me passed out half on the couch and half on the floor unresponsive. She panicked and called the ambulance services who then rushed me to hospital. This is a very important lesson in making sure you don't pick at hangnails because I went from picking it two weeks ago to now having no hand. I have to start rehab soon. I have also had to cancel all my client visits for the following months which I am sad about.]

Her shift ends in 5 hours so I’ll get some rest 😴
I was feeling very bad so I called my doctor and he told me to go to the hospital. I think I have a bit more time before it gets serious though so I’m going to go to sleep first and when I wake up hopefully my gf can drive me there (hospital 1 hour away we share a car)
Within the past hour I’ve been feeling achy and now I’m resting with an ice pack on my head because I can feel a fever coming on. I should’ve listened to my gf because she offered to take me to the hospital before she started her shift. I’m just going to brave it out for now but I think my hand is infected
Meh, I don’t think I’ll get sepsis as I don’t touch dirt and wash my hands regularly. I doubt it’ll get bad. And the antibiotics still smell okay so I don’t think they’ve gone off
🖕💩🖕

I miss my hand man 🤯. I start physio / rehab soon. I wonder when I’ll be able to carry weights. Dr said not to lift anything 20lbs wtf man
