NHS rant alert

[Tashyboy]

Missis T ended up in hospital on weds morning in severe pain. Exact same symptoms as three weeks ago when she went in, it was so bad an experience that on Monday whilst calling in at the hospital to drop off her club note. We called in at PALS ( now renamed PET) to leave them a complaints letter titled " from the other side".
This time however the treatment was world class but highlighted the dire treatment she recieved the first time she was admitted, eg this time they noticed that she has been on prescribed ibuprofen for three weeks with no stomach protection medication. May seem trivial, but one of the things she may have is a stomach ulcer which will be checked on Monday when she swallows a camera.
They asked why she never had DVT injections last time, because they were not offered.
She has had more scans and tests this last few days than is imagine able , but why were they not done three weeks ago.
If she had been abducted by aliens she would not of been probed as much. This last three days has been a nightmare. They found a distended stomach but had no explaination as to why. Unfortunately Mr Google does not paint an happy picture, which caused much distress to Missis T and family inc me.
The first night in bed on my own I thought the bed was massive, the second night I realised it was not massive but empty.

The nurses have been brilliant, she had her stomach drained today by one of her pals. Not the most pleasant of procedures. But Missis T said that if it had to of been done by the agency nurse the other week she said she would of told her to get lost such was her incompetency.
Not been the best of the last three days, but Missis T is home giggling at corro on the telly and life is sweet at the moment. But when your beloved says if this time is like last time then I will go to another hospital, then something is seriously wrong.

This last month has been a nightmare and one cannot help but think that politics is harming the NHS, which is held together by the goodwill of excellent nursing staff and Drs.

Sorryfor the rant, have a good weekend folks.

Fingers crossed Homer, she jumped on the scales this morning and has lost 8lb in the three days she was in. She had a good nights kip, glad one of us did. Took young Bradley Tash in to see her as a suprise. It was an hour of glorious mayhem. Bed goes up, bed goes down, bed bends. Beds a climbing frame. Special toilets, special baths.

Of to footy in an hour with me old man so she can chill for the afternoon.

Quick update, three weeks ago Missis T saw a gastroenterologist at a private hospital coz the wait was to long to see her in NHS hospital. They never had any notes on her condition ( never requested them) bloke she saw said he was 99 % sure she had a hernia. Had to go back today so guy could confirm diagnosis when he had looked at her scans which had not been requested.
Missis T's boss gave her a back to work assesment Monday and and rang private hospital to see if they had requested films of ct and ultrasound scans, they had not.
She went today and saw gastro guy, they have now lost her notes from initial consultation with him. The guy asked if she was new patient. Er no. He then said I have seen your ct and ultra sound scan films and you DO NOT have an hernia. Mint.
He said I want you to have an ultrasound scan on you site of pain, but have it done here at the private hospital. We went to the desk to make an appointment, woman says it will be next week. When, "don't know coz we don't know when he will be in to do them"." We will ring you tomorrow or maybe Monday".
At that point me head went and I had a walk to the carpark to calm down. Tomorrow said private hospital will be at the end of one of tashyboys famous rants.
