I had regained consciousness when the paramedics came up. They got straight to work, giving me oxygen, taking my blood pressure and fitting me with a drip.

My wife (my saviour) came and picked me up and told me "I thought that was it. You were in such a state when you left in the ambulance I thought you weren't coming home".

The point of this thread is first to thank the #NHS staff and the paramedics who treated me.
Also drink plenty of water while in isolation.
You probably don't know feel thirsty but trust me dehydration can happen really quickly.
