My leukemia's back.

x2 on LG's statement...file a formal complaint. If he treated you that way, he probably treats all his patients that way. No one should have to put up with that type of behavior.
 
x3 And he most especially should not treat our Rachel that way!! Heck hath no fury like a bunch of chicken people on a rampage!!

Something about that gave me such a mental picture, couldn't help but laugh!
 
Rachel, how is the eye 'working'. When I had mine done it was like looking through a blizzard or heavy fog for several weeks. Scared the crap out of me to the point that if I had the second eye scheduled I would have cancelled.
 
Thank you all so much. You don't know what your support means to me.

Honey helped a lot this morning. He appealed to my nurse brain. How this was an adverse reaction, just as if I'd broken out in hives. Same thing. Not under my control at all. That' the hard part--you know us control freaks. But he was so right. I was not choosing to act/think that way. No more than I'd choose to break out in hives. And when a medication has caused hives for me before, they've come and gone, it's taken days to get the stuff out of my system. May well be the same for this. I'm really trying not to obsess, but the brain does keep circling back.

Maybe a complaint is the way to go. I'd really thought about a lawsuit, but that's pointless. I don't want money, it's not that kind of thing. But he was completely dismissive of me. And thinking back, my post op nurse was VERY insistent about having me talk to both the surgeon and another nurse on the unit, to get this documented. So maybe it's a pattern with him they've dealt with?

I think he is a Nurse Anesthetist. I can confirm and talk to the State Board of Nursing, see where I'd go from there. That may be the right balance to make me feel vindicated.

And we can all throw rotten eggs at his car. Or could, if I had enough darn hens laying to spare the eggs

Thank you again. Your words help so much.
 
Rachel, I don't have any rotten eggs but I have plenty of the stuff to do this!



Looks like fun to me, lol.

Either one, I'm in.

Oh, Rachel, I am so sorry about the reaction you had to the anesthesia......DEFINITELY file that complaint. You specifically voiced a concern, the concern was ignored and you were very poorly treated during the reaction/procedure --- that cannot be allowed to happen and go unreported. So glad you have your wonderful honey there with you.

Rachel, not so much being vindicated, but forcing accountability. He can't be allowed to do this to patients.

I'm in. Can swing by Walmart and pick up a mega pack of Angel Soft on my way.
That's the great thing about this bunch...we all hang together, lol.
