Unfortunately we didn't know the name of above but two inappropriate remarks.
Why was I there?
My reply reflux to which they said had I thought of going on a diet. I was deeply offended as I have struggled with my weight all my life and I am currently seeking bariatric help and lost ten stone and put back 6 partly because of my bipolar meds.
Secondly what did I hope to gain from the endoscopy and what did I think the findings would be.
I was astounded by this and said I could answer that if I was the doctor!!
All the other staff were very nice indeed a lovely consultant and a lovely nurse who was very reassuring. I was pleased that I managed the procedure without any problems and I think all concerned were also pleased.
