My daughter, attended GP due to severe sickness at 11 weeks pregnant. Her ketones at GP were off the scale, she has lost 10 lbs plus in weight. She was referred to maternity assessment at Queen Elizabeth maternity Glasgow.
Her ketones showed + of ketones so was told there’s nothing we can do you don’t meet the protocol. If the uncaring staff member had looked at and listened to her patient she would have realised the patient would benefit from some iv fluids.
What was upsetting was the unkind delivery of communication by a them. I’m disgusted by the lack of empathy shown and lack of staff looking at the full picture of their patients. Shameful.
I felt my daughter’s treatment was disgraceful and unprofessional.
