"My Experience"

I was admitted on 22nd jan with severe pain around ovaries. They didn't scan me until the 25th. Due to the findings (ovarian cysts) they told me i needed iv scan. I requested that this be done as an outpatient. The doctor assured me if i stayed as in patient my scan would be done in 1-2 days. Only for the same doctor to come to see me on 29th jan. After i had spent the whole weekend asking what was going on. To come and tell me i was to have the scan done as an outpatient and he denied ever telling me that i would get an iv scan.

I am home now and in extreme pain still and have no idea when i will get treatment or explanation. I am also worried about an elderly lady who was opposite me on the ward. I was feeding her every day because she had her food taken away from her for 2 days. Due to the fact she had dementia she was struggling to feed herself. The nurses assumed she just wasn't hungry i suppose. However when i started feeding her she ate every last bit. Disgusting. So i spent 7 days in a ward with little to no care or attention for absolutely nothing. I am now making visits every 2 days to my doctors surgery due to my pain and discomfort.
