The hospitalisation



Under constant supervision to make
sure nothing was getting worse
After a long and stressful journey we finally got back to London late Saturday night. On Sunday I was exhausted and my body felt sore like when you got high fever but I thought I was probably just tired from the trip the day before. However, on Monday I started to feel even worse and I had this weird pain in my chest that disturbed me during school but the pain went away in the evening so I wasn’t too worried about it.

Then super early the next morning I walk up with a pain so severe I can only compare it to the time when I hit the ground from 9 meters in a climbing accident. We decided that it was probably best if I went to the hospital to get checked up. At the hospital the first test came back with a clear message, something was wrong with my heart, the test result was equal to someone who just suffered a heart attack. During the day I was tested for many of the most common problems but they could still not fully understand what was wrong.

Later that night I was transported with an ambulance to a close by hospital specialised on heart problems. I spent the next 3 days at the new hospital where they I had to go through even more tests to make sure nothing was missed out.
The food was good though :)
 On Friday evening when the last test result came back the doctors could finally agree on what they thought were wrong and decided it was safe for me to leave the hospital. I have an inflammation of the heart muscle caused by a virus, which means no school in two weeks and no physical activity for 4-6 weeks. Not much I can do, just follow the doctors advice and stay positive because it could have been much worse…

  3. Oscar, jag förstår att det är en mycket tung tid just nu. Du tränar och planerar för en bra klättersäsong 2012 och helt plötsligt inträffar det otroliga för en mycket fit 16-åring, hjärtproblem!! Nu gäller det dock att tänka positivt - Du kommer inom sinom tid vara åter på vägg/klippa och då med ny erfarenhet och stryka som kommer att hjälpa dig i livet framöver!

    Keep Calm Carry On

  5. Oscar,
    Ta det lugnt o vila tills allt är bra! Klipporna o lederna finns kvar, nu kan du ta dig tid till annat som du kanske inte hinner reflektera över annars.

  7. Jajaj så blir det ibland, inte mycket man kan göra åt det. Man får se det positivt och tänka att det kunde ha varit värre!
    Skönt var det att lämna sjukhuset iallafall.
    Hoppas Österrike var bra!
    Tack!
