Bad bones :(

UPDATE (sorry if I confuse you but I am confused myself)

Last thing I did was see the surgeon at Hospital no 1, the hospital I have been to since day one. Surgeon said he could NOT operate and to start physio, he would then see me in 3 weeks. If I wasn't healing he may operate ????

So with Surgeons indecisiveness I was unhappy and went along to my local GP, asked for a referral for a 2nd opinion which would take me to Hospital no 2.

With me so far.....??

Today I receive a letter inviting me for an out-patient appointment and in-patient appointment at a completely different hospital (Hospital no 3). So I assume in-patient offering me a bed means I am going in for an op, but why to a hospital I have never been involved with?

So I ring the Hospital no 3 and find the my origianl surgeon had referred me and booked me in without telling me. I even have a physio appointment with hospital no 1 booked for the day after my operation appointment. This can't be good practice, patient not even being asked.

But I think, ahhhh did my GP push along my surgeon and maybe found me a better surgeon, so I called my GP to find that they had nothing to do with it and I am infact waiting for hospital no 2 to get to me with a appointment date.

So all in all, my original surgeon is RUBBISH and doesn't know his **** from his head and I am having an operation on my arm with people that are seeing me the day before.

My faith in the NHS is rock bottom and after a BIG complaint is going in.

Today I have not known if I am coming or going ...... oh well I have an opeartion ahead, even if I don't know what's going on I hope they do LOL

sorry to hear this shelly i'm in a simalir boat my sling came off last wed and i was told "all healed and start physio" monday i ring up and ask for another app cus it dont feel right? see doc wed and have 2 more x rays to find out its still broke now wait another 4 weeks out of a sling to see if nature does its thing then if it doesnt i'm going to start and look like my avatar.

How are you doing Kwak? Assuming you're still in you sling?

I am thoroughly fed up. Was meant to be operated on today, I had the hope my arm would be pinned. I had an appointment to see my new surgeon yesterday, they took my blood etc and then sent me for an X-ray.

3 hours later I saw the surgeon who said although the X-ray isn't showing he thinks the bones mending, he doesnt want to op because that would mean skin and bone graft off my hip and leave me wit 2 big scars, instead I am to go back to see him in 3 months.

I asked him for a sick note and he signed me fit for light duties so in effect signed me back to work. But work won't have me back until I am sorted. gggggrrrrrr

Looks like 3 more months of sitting about in cyber world.

On a good note my bike is completey fised, last part went on last week, the brake lever

am out of the sling and using my arm for light everyday stuff, at the hospital in 2 weeks to see what they are going to do with me i dont really have much pain and can do most things with the arm so i havent a clue what they are going to do? he mentioned the op 2 weeks ago but decided i should wait another 4 weeks to see if natural healing would take place good news on your bike being fixed tho mines all fixed to and ready to go!

Good ain't it, the bikes are ready just us that ain't I am itchin to ger back on her too.
