Thanks guys, I really appreciate the support. I guess this kinda thing puts a lot of things in perspective.
Well the situation is this, I have been given a sickly combinaton of anti virals(and yes they do make you feel like shit).
In the mean time(today actually) I have been offered a temp. post on an EMI unit(elderly mentally ill) of course my role would have certain limitations.
Tommorow, I am going to talk to some lawyers from my proffesional association, the RCN(Royal College of Nursing. We will be discussing possible action against the hospital amongst other things. I do have insurance with the RCN, and they may well undertake legal action on my behalf.
As for the guy that did it to me, the police say that they are going to charge him with assualt with a deadly weapon occasioning grevious bodily harm(or something like that, I am going to speak to them this afternoon). In any case, the guy is back in prison as he breachd his parole conditions(again, I am not too clear on this either). To be honest I am trying not to think about this subhuman, everytime I do I get angry.
The police are not charging me with anything.
Myself, I might do some agency nursing work, I really do not want to go back to the hospital, as I said they have offered me a temp post in the EMI unit but it can't be wise working for the same institution I am planning on suing(can it?).
I am just afraid that this may end up in the press, then what? Until my HIV status is confirmed in three months time, it would make it very difficult for me to work in nursing. My family are suggesting I take the time of, maybe even go away for a while. To be honest with you though I'd much rather keep busy, not brood on this situation too much.
I may just spend more time working down my gym, it's amazing that I work in the caring profession yet it's the bro's dwn the gym(well the very few that know the story) that have been the most supportive, most of my so called colleages(nurses, dr's) have not even bothered to even call me, of course some have been bloody marvellous.
The past few days I have not slept very well, I have felt like shit both physically and mentally, I got some lorezepam and Zopiclone from the Dr yesterday and it does make me feel better but I can't think straight(as this rambling thread probably indicates) and still can't sleep well.
Anyway guys, I am going to take a walk and try to clear my head, again, thanks for all your support- thanks Millhouse/KingJohn, it means a lot to me that people I sometimes don't get on with are behind me, I guess this whole situation puts our petty disagreements into perspective, right?
Again, all you people have been great, God bless
