When I lived in Calif, my MD who was caring for the medical issues caused by my anorexia ordered the hospital staff psychologist to see me daily. That was when my mom was dying & I had gone through the trauma with the home care person I caught abusing my mom. It was wonderful to have a psychologist to talk to about the things that were on my mind so I can definitely understand the need you had for that same experience. Maybe something to think about requesting during any medical hospital stays in the future.
WOW, you really went through quite an ordeal. Glad they were able to care for you & you are recovering now  Recovery takes so long when we are used to being so active. Oh, BTW, that itching all over.......that is what morphine does to me. I can't take any morphine or morphine derivatives. I have problems with many antibiotics also. One actually made my tongue swell & penicillin made me break out in a rash. The rash is better than my daughters reaction to penicillin. Her joints got so stiff she couldn't walk at all. Only thing that helped her at that point was prednisone. Found out that when in a penicillin reaction, eating blue cheese dressing makes it worse (same mold). Reactions to meds happen way too often & recovering from the reaction on top of recovering from the problem that needed it just makes it all worse.
Take care of yourself & just tell everyone you are on a recovery vacation & not doing anything.
