Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

They have taken everything from me. They have ruined my life. I am just a shell with no more soul. My heart is broken into a million pieces. I am only existing not living. What kind of life is that? I am so very tired of feeling like this. Of having no control. I am just tired of this life.

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

4 in the morning and I still get to sleep. I am so damn tired but I can't sleep. I am scared to close my eyes. Scared to see what I don't want to see. Why is life so hard? It shouldn't be this hard. It shouldn't be this tiring. It shouldn't be this painful and rough. I just want it all to stop. I am drowning and I don't know how to stop.

Sorry I've not been with it.

My 5th Surgery is next Wednesday 5th of August.

I'm anxious & stressing about it.

I have no idea what recovery time.

If things go well, with no complications - I shall be home that same day (1st time that's ever happened).

There have always been complications.

The shortest time I've ever spent in hospital (after surgery) - was 10 days (16 days the longest).

It Blew me out of the Water - 3.5 hours trip for Medical Assessment Clinic

Pre-Op Nightmare This Afternoon (2.00-5.30pm)

 

They put so many obstacles in my way –

 

1)No I cannot go home without someone with me - forced to stay overnight Wednesday night in hospital.

2)Get immediate Swabs for MRSI (Pathology tests) – when that was 5 years ago (2015).

Oh my….

 

Due to every previous Surgery having gone drastically wrong, or having had on-going Complications –

 

-It’s been extremely hard (past few days) for me to Minimise this upcoming Surgery – to reign- in my fears & overwhelm (escalating anxiety).

Nothing in my dealing with hospitals (especially this hospital) or essential surgeries has ever been clear, simple, or straight-forward.

 

This afternoon’s Pre-Op Medical Assessment Clinic trip was scheduled by them at the last moment – with only 24 hours notice.

The trip took 3.5 hours (2.00-5.30pm).

When last time (march 2019)(16 months ago) – I was in & out of there in just 40 minutes.

 

First the Anaesthetist Doctor assured me that he was confident that it would Remain just a Day Surgery (no complications) – that I would be able to go home (after Surgery) this Wednesday afternoon (5th of August).

 

Then the Nurse said No, as I have no-one to take me Home (Taxi does not count according to her), no-one to spend the night at my home (watching me) after Anaesthetic – she Refused to let me go home Wednesday afternoon.

Nurse said that I will be forced to spend Wednesday night in hospital – to go home Thursday morning.

 

Then the Nurse insisted that I go & get immediate Pathology Swabs (both today & tomorrow) – for MRSI that I had in 2015 (GP test).

That was 5 years ago.

 

She said that I have had a Surgery (March 2019) since then – Which means that I don't have MRSI now.

Yet she still demanded I go get Pathology Swabs & again tomorrow.

 

Utterly exhausted – too much.

Now it’s 7.00pm, have not eaten for 7 hours (no Dinner)…
