Dea Were they daft go back another day :-S

I can't type what my answer would have been but I am sure you can guess :-D

After taking all that horrible stuff no chance. You were right to go to the other hospital but they should have brought another Doctor in to cover the clinic .

i can't tell you your naughty for fibbing about the pain cos I would have wanted home too. You never get a sleep in hospital.

Hope you get a good rest tonight and feel better in the morning. <3

Our specialists have always given both OH and I a quick report after it's over ............... they come into the Recovery area to do it.

OH's has even left little notes pinned to the pillow to make sure OH and I understood.

Then they also send a report to our GP, takes 1 -2 weeks ............................ it's almost always done electronically here now though.



I'm sorry it hurt so much. I guess I've been lucky ................... neither that nor the endoscopy has ever been really bad.

But Cynths - If they had kept me in I would still feel 'rotton' whereas as soon as I got home I felt much better, and at least I will get a good sleep tonight ;-) :-D

Dea Xxx

Don't know Sylvs - the nurse who discharged me said 2 - 3 weeks but the last one was back in a week and that was what I was led to understand this one would take ??
