Well what a rough day i had yesterday! phew im so glad its all over and i can start looking forward to spending quality time without being in pain or bleeding with my children! Anyway i went into hospital yesterday, got there at 8am, bradley was playing up, we couldnt get any one to have him because my mum and dad are away still, he was getting frustrated bless him, wasnt his fault, anyway the anethestitst(sp) came to see me about going to sleep (i was dreading it, i thought i was never gonna wake up lol) all went ok, at 9.30am a different consultant came round and said im sorry catherine but i dont think you should have this operation, the risks outweigh everything else, im going to scan you and see if you have anything left in your uterus first before deciding what we will do.. like anything was gonna have changed from wednesday.. the pillock!
anyway i had scan and there it was a 5cm thing stuck in my uterus, even the sonographer was confused as to why i was having another scan, anyway i went bck up to my room, i had my own room as i had bailey with me. i was just laid there doing my cross stitch when this lady said, oh why havent you got your gown on, they have come to take you down! well no one told me i was going, the last i knew the consultant was saying i wasnt having it done and no one had been to see me after the scan oh well mark had taken bradley for a walk and i was like well i cant go yet cos hes not here to look after bailey, so the nurse took bailey to sit in the office with the nurses, bless her, i got ready, my hands were sweaty, i was so nervous!
anyway i went down had it done, went to sleep dead quick, i remember saying eww im bleeding, she just laughed at me the women did.. i wasnt impressed.. found out i had been down in surgery for 2 hours.. this scared me because i was told it was only a half hour jobby! after 4 hours i was heavily bleeding still, i got up to go to the loo and wham all hel broke loose, wont say too much here but i can say i ended bck in theatre.. the dicks had cut into my uterus and thats why i was bleeding.. how stupid can they be, i knew there was a risk but only a small chance it would happen to me.. mark was going mad, saying i shouldnt have had to have the first op in the first place, i was embarrased but glad he spoke out really..
got bck up to my room about 8.10ish, slept for 2 hours to be told i cant carry any more children because of the damage done to my womb.. duh! do they not read my notes, ive been sterlised due to the fact of not wanting more kids, anyway if i had to have my whole womb removed then i would have gone mad, im only 25..
but i am sueing the hospital im well within my rights too and i have a solictor on my case as i type
went to see my own gp today after i was disharged cos bailey had his 6 week check... and he was shocked to say the least.. dont worry matey im putting a complaint in about you too lmao.. he asked why and i said i shouldnt have suffered like i have if it wasnt for you i would have had this done ages ago!
i got home about 11.30am andwent to bed where i have slept for 2 hours pure bliss anyway sorry for the rant girls just letting you know whats up and where i been lol..
hope youve all had loads of fun, cos i aint.. thanks for the wishes and loads of hugs etc

You Go Girl!... there have been too many mistakes made by the NHS these days that unfortunately the only way to get them to sit up and take notice, is to sue them. I'm also looking at taking legal action following the treatment I received with my SPD so good luck hun, and I hope you're feeling better soon.
