Another RN chiming in. Get home ASAP! Hospitals are not the place to recover in general.
My husband had a ruptured appendix last year and spent 9 days in the hospital- 4 of them in ICU. It was horrendous.
He developed sepsis. The good thing was that once he started to recover he rebounded very quickly.
The sepsis wasn't from being in the hospital by the way. It was from the rupture. But it was a nightmarish experience.
