As a CFer AND a nurse, I can understand both sides.

The nurses try not to bring germs in and out. The gowns are to stop bugs going OUT, not really IN.

But when in the hospital, it totally sucks when you feel like an alien. I just wanted to see someone who looked normal and who didn't touch me with just drugs. They also tried to stay out of my room as much as possible so that they didn't have to do barrier protection and the like.

But it was for everyone's safety.

omg i so agree i hate isolation though i'm in isolation b/c of mrsa but i still think it is stupid cuz i see people every day and i go through the hospital when i come for checkups. Also it goes away but unless u dont have it for like 6 yrs yr still in isolation. one time i had been cleared for long enough and i was able to leave my room and it was way better. i also got my pfts the highest ever after being in the hospital and they let me leave early so i think being able to leave the room really helps you get better faster. unfortuatly it came back and so im stuck in isolation agian. i'm in the hospital right now and u no i have been here for 2 days and i'm pretty darn sick of these four walls. the worst part for me is that i don't even feel worse than i normaly do so i have energy and i want to do things not just sit in the room all day. Well 2 days down at least 12 more to go
