Had an appendectomy at HRI on 13th oct. come out with chest infection, pain and bruising to my neck and back where my gp says they over manipulated the tube down my throat, and bruising to my arms where they have tried to take blood from arteries instead of veins. The operation itself went well but the hospital, staff and end result has left me feeling like I've been in a car crash. They left me 6 hours without antibiotics or fluids knowing I had extremely high levels of white blood cells, and fasted me before a surgeon had even made a diagnosis I had appendicitis went a total of 48 hours without food. My gp saw me last night and gave me antibiotics after the negligence of the hospital has given me a chest infection. I'd never go back.
