Re: The Challenges of Mental Health Wellbeing

@Former-Member@Snowie@outlander@Faith-and-Hope@Emelia8

Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughts. I'm sorry I've not updated you but I've had a rough recovery since yesterday.

My surgery has gone alright, and I arrived on the ward mid afternoon. A short while later I got up to use the bathroom. As I was walking I felt something dripping then running down my side and leg. My drain had sprung a big leak. So there was that to fix. And today I've had chest pain which had everyone on the hop. So I've had multiple tests and procedures. And then I've also had the nurses use the wrong dressings on my wounds. I've told them on multiple occasions of my allergy to most tapes & dressing, yet they aren't listening or passing on the information. So I've had a mild allergic reaction which required the dressings to be removed.

 

I've not slept much, have been poked & prodded more than I care for, and I'm frustrated and irritable.

Hopefully discharge tommorow but not sure at this stage. Anyway this post has taken a while to write, in fits and starts because I keep nodding off. I'll try to catch up tommorow if I'm more alert.πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—

Re: The Challenges of Mental Health Wellbeing

Hearing of your frustration of them not listening and not hearing you. I know so well. Hoping you get home soon and recover quickly. Hugs and love to you @Sans911 πŸ’œ
