I ended up being taken into hospital by ambulance

Oh my life. It seems somewhat ironic that on the day I was about to finish off my latest blog on being on the other side of an emergency, that I ended up being taken into hospital by ambulance with severe chest pain.
It was odd because yesterday the tightness in my chest following a week of oral steroids, seemed to be increasing. It wasn't an asthma tightness but I couldn't take a deep breath and it felt like there were a tonne of bricks on my chest constantly.
It got particularly bad and I ended up calling up my bro to get help. Long story short, ambulance came and I was whisked off to A&E...
It turns out that I've got very inflamed chest walls which is why it's so painful with any exertion, whether that be sitting in my wheelchair or trying to take a deep breath.
Lots of rest and potential injections into my chest if it lasts more than a month. A lot of pain at the mo and much harder to breathe.
Going into a hospital again has been quite triggering. To be honest, I wasn't feeling well enough to think last night but this morning as the rest of the house are still asleep, I can't help but get flashbacks of the multiple times I've been rushed into hospital. My dreams are filled with memories and it's weird.
I had planned to do loads of posts this weeks and lives too, as I'm really excited that my book is going to be in Hashtag Press black friday sale and you can get 50% off and my publishers asked me to share some links. At the moment the book industry desperately need people to buy books as let's just say it's a challenging time. Bit worried to let the foot off the gas but I know needs must! So frustrating! Maybe by some miracle I will just randomly start selling loads of copies!
So please share this with all the links for me, whilst I curl under a rock for a little while and just use my energy to focus on breathing. Thank you for your continued support and love when it comes to my writing: it's a dream that I desperately want to keep doing.
Night night... Let the payback commence...I can already feel it coming.
