Doctors mistake watch out.
On Monday l had stomach pain, hot flashes and dizziness. I thought it was my ammonia levels. Instead it was my appendix. When l went to the hospital and before surgery the surgeon explained how she was going to do the surgery. She asked all the regular questions about your medical history before the surgery. She didn't ask me about my shunts in my liver. Strange. I told her because l am very careful about it. So she tells me well don't die on me. Now l didn't want to do the surgery after she said that. So my family said you have to or it can bust and you will die. I understand all that. Then my daughter tells me someone told her that it was the first time at the surgery they did my TIP procedure. I was in shock, l smell a rat l said because everytime l have to go to the hospital or see the doctors at that hospital they always say l have a mental problem and l am depressed and so on. So while l was in the hospital there was three meds they didn't give me. I told them and they were in shock they overlooked that and l daught that. Then l was having problems breathing and l was calling the nurse 3 times. I told them you didn't give me my inhaler or my cpac machine. They really was scared. Then they asked me if l take oxygen because my l was having breathing issues and my oxygen levels went down while was sleeping. I told them no. So they gave me oxygen and a breathing treatment. I told them this wouldn't have happened if they would have read my chart and see l have a cpac machine and take 2 inhalers. And they also didn't give me my eye medication even when they asked me if l had glaucoma. I had to have an ultrasound of my neck. They said it was ok. Then when l was discharged the medicine l was allergic to for my liver they had it on my chart that l take it after telling them that and my hepatologist that see at the same hospital. It's crazy it not on the computers at the same hospital
So they were so scared they were hurrying me to be discharged. You talk about sorry medical systems and doctors. I could have died.Thank God for him being with me.
