I did not have to
undergo anymore tapping. I got my release
from SICU on 1st July, and presently got shifted to room 408. On 30th
June I requested doctor if I could be discharged. He said no way, if he had
admitted me the first time- the morning of my OHSS start- the situation would not
have become so complex, now there was no way he would discharge me and send me home until he was very sure that everything was stable. Anyway he said I can be
shifted to the room, and SisG bid good bye saying that let there never
again be another stay at SICU.
Thus began a new
routine. My parents would bring breakfast from home (an hour away) every day and
when they reached Ramesh would leave for office. Lunch was arranged to be brought from a nearby hotel,
and in the evening when Ramesh came, my
parents would leave. Ramesh would bring tender coconut every day. Every morning
before breakfast my blood sample was taken for testing Beta hCG. Initially five
bottles of Albumin was given as IV every day (Albumin from Reliance, called
Alburel. It actually costs only about Rs.1800/- per bottle, but after all the
overheads etc., the hospital gives it at Rs.5000/- per bottle!). Later this became three bottles per day and
was stopped gradually, along with saline IV.
Finally, since
Beta hCG was doubling properly and OHSS stopped, I got discharged today. Doctor
scheduled the next visit for 11th, and said that I should not leave
for Chennai before that. I am worried, but trying to relax since full-fledged
classes would not start before 11th , hopefully.
