Dee used an empty drinking bottle with her name on the lid. How do you get the bottle past the nurses? I also would like to bring in some B-12. I was in hospital several times recently. My son brought me in bottled spring water as the hospital water tasted foul. I kept these on top of my locker. I also got him to fill a smaller water bottle with EIS and I also kept this on my locker and regularly took a swig from this. no one even noticed. In my toilet bag I also kept a spray bottle of EIS which I used on my face and hands all the time. Funnily enough the ward ended up closed for new admissions because of an outbreak of diarrhoea and vomiting among patients and staff. They said it was the winter vomiting virus (in June???) but several patients thought it was Cdiff. I upped the intake of EIS and had absolutely no problems. Cheers Kirsteen
