I'm back home from hospital (but still very much in pain)

Kirsten I am sure there is a doctor on emergency service. And your mom must come home at some time. Can't you call her one her mobile- I really think you need someone at home right now.

[Craftlady]

I would go to the ER.
I cant believe a doctor would release you knowing there was no one there to help you out & not sending an antibotic home or pain medication is pure stupidity on your doctors part.
Please call him and get in his face, you need help and fast.

Sorry that you are still hurting.Can you maybe call whoever brought you home and tell them what's going on? I am very surprised they gave you no
RXs to take home.

Kirsten, I'm so sorry to hear that you're still in so much pain and that your incisions are also infected. Please call someone to come over and help you. Can a neighbor help you?

I also can't believe that you weren't sent home with any pain meds and that now that your incisions are infected that you weren't given any antibiotics. I think that if I was you that I'd also consider calling a doctor or even going to the emergency room. You really shouldn't be home alone right now. You need some time to heal before doing any normal daily activities. Please take care.

My one contact in Ansbach didn't work out, but I PM'd a lady on the Hystersisters board who is from Germany, and put out an ABP in their Europe section and in the general post-op section...I hope someone replies soon.

Maybe her mom is there....maybe she is at the hospital?

If anything happens to her, the family should sue! Sorry, I am just angry about the lack of follow-up.

I think that Dr should have his testes removed and left to fend for himself for a number of days without painkillers! (Sorry, I am NOT being nice right now... )

I hope Kirsten is ok....

Kirsten is going to see the gynaecologist today as her condition hasn't improved - in fact it seems to me the infection's gotten worse. Her doctor just gave her painkillers and an ointment yesterday. I told her to insist on a scan and/or blood tests today and to be properly medicated to fight off the infection.

Just spoke to her on the phone, and if Kirsten's not online later, I'll keep udating you all.

Sorry, I am just angry about the lack of follow-up.

Welcome to the world. I spent almost 10 hours waiting to see a doctor after having problems with a surgery I had in May just a few days after it was done.

Follow-up is an absolute joke.


I really hope you are doing better, Kirsten. I can only imagine the pain and stress you are in right now. I'll be praying for you!

Gosh, I'm just so sorry to hear this

Prayers headed your way Kirsten.
