Eventually I was released from the trolley and was told I had to eat something, so had an egg sandwich and a decent cup of tea!, At home now, got to sleep on my left side, and for next 4 days when awake I have to spend 45 mins out of every hour laying down or with my head resting to the left. Currently have a hard plastic patch on (which is soooo annoyi
