Finally cracked had one of my magnificent hissy fits after being told l had been prescribed 2 anticoagulant drugs instead of one which explains why l look like l have been in a wrestling match lethal combination when already on high steroids ! Managed that quite calmly then no hot drink from 7am too busy. Icing on cake because l am on oxygen 24/7 they can't transport me home without an escort !! My husband is not able to drive due to delayed knee op family down south to far normal neighbor's in Germany ! Feeling totally victimised because of needing oxygen to survive lost it am now camped out in coffee shop with my robot feeling more like me . Big girl pants pulled well up BRING it ON

I think you’ve done extremely well not to have absolutely exploded Delamere! Your treatment has been abysmal and I hope you’re soon on your way home, with oxygen and everything else you need. Big girl pants are amazing. Well done. Love, Carole xxx ❤️

If you don't laugh you would cry. As they say It's not the cough that carries you off It's the coffin they carry you off in x

Thankyou

Sometimes an explosion does you good and gets you respect points with the nurses. At the end of the 11 days caused by surgeon's mistake I finally blew when opat team refused to give me 3 remaining days of IV ab to take home unless they received another approval from bham con at 5pm. The sky lit up, I had them take the line out and discharged myself. All the while saying its not you its those opat fools to the nurses. Response from nurses, well done you. You have put up with enough!So well done you. Doubling of anticoagulant is medical negligence.xx

Well done you for getting your big girl pants on and showing them your hissy fit. I hope you are now at home and enjoying the comforts. I would certainly put in a complaint regarding negligence, in fact I would consider a claim. For now just enjoy being home and take it easy x
