Guest guest Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Yes, , you are right. That is why they don't want you to bring your meds to the hospital. They don't care if you suffer as long as you don't sue them. Having given all this some thought, I must say that the hospital that I had my surgery in was quite sane when it came to personal meds. It was two previous stays that I had some difficulty. All the best, Joan ________________________________ From: Waspe <mary.waspe@...> Joint Replacement Sent: Wed, July 21, 2010 11:47:25 PM Subject: medications...

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Joan, I do know what you mean. I have come across some really nasty nurses. I spent 8 months in and out of hospital in 2002 with a chronic pain condition., Some nurses were very judgmental on my medication etc, and I even came across some nurses in A different hospital where I had my lap band put in, the doctor there prescribed morphine sub cut for post op, As I couldn't take tablets until after the x-ray to make sure the band was in the right position, any way this nurse refused point blank to Give it too me and the nastiness was horrid, it made me feel like an addict, Thank god where I had my shoulder surgeries last year they were all So nice and non judgmental how they should be, I was a nurse for 28 years so I know how to behave. I never judged any one I might have thought certain things but kept them to myself. xx mary.waspe@...
