Admission, meds, vascular access…

A personal log entry, here, so I can (with any luck) look back on it, should I need to remember this incident. Also cathartic writing. Due to severe chronic norovirus since January – so 7 months now – I have become severely malnourished and lost a lot of weight. It has been decided that I need Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN); IV feeding. My weight is on a downward trend from 59.5kg.
