What did you find most surprising once you were out of the ICU?
Intensive Care (ICU) | Last Active: Dec 16, 2021 | Replies (107)Comment receiving replies
Hi there. This is my first time on this blog. I wasn't even aware of this this site until yesterday, a year after I was released from 6 weeks in ICU with another 2 weeks in a regular room. I know nothing of this as I was either in a coma or fighting (without my knowing I was) for my life. I am so sorry for all who suffer from this very real syndrome. I started crying when I started reading your posts. I have all the symptoms and and truly thought I was crazy. I hope to learn from you all and maybe I can help in some way too.

I’m so glad you found this blog! It does help to hear from others who have gone through liver transplants. I hope you are feeling much better about what you experienced during your recovery period.
Welcome! I'm new to this community too. Thank you for sharing a piece of your story. I know that this page has already offered me a glimpse of hope, as I now know that I'm not alone. I hope that you can experience this too. Take care.

Welcome to the discussion @smoky - I am glad you found us! You will likely see by reading through the many posts on here your feeling of being "crazy" is shared by so many others. Just knowing there are others out there - many others in fact - who have experienced what you are experiencing can be healing in itself. What are some of the symptoms of PICS that you are experiencing if you feel open to sharing with us?
