Title: What are they doing to me ?
Post by: KICKSTART on January 29, 2010, 05:29:00 AM: Im dreading going in to dialysis tomorrow. As you know i went in overloaded on tues (not through my own fault) Anyway they pulled loads off me and i felt great ! So when i went in yesterday they decided to do the same thing , no Loop , no Profile. Now if my dry weight was correct i had 2.2 to pull off. I went in with my USUAL high bp of 212/110 (nothing new) They put me on the machine and ....it took about 1.9 off and my bp went to 84/62 :o Well as you would expect i felt horrendous , i was light headed , my face was tingling so i told them to stop pulling the fluid off, even tho they wanted to keep going because i hadnt done my target !!!! How i drove home i dont know ! Ive fellt ill all last night , my eye pain is horrendous its kept me awake all night , i have the most terrific headache all day today. What on earth are they doing to me ?

the tech asked me what I was doing wrong --- I was making her whole day off schedule --
my jeans and blouse were covered in blood --

Post by: kristina on January 30, 2010, 01:09:21 AM: May I just ask a question please (and this could be a general question as well...):
KICKSTART, are you the only NHS-patient who has been singled out and treated badly
or are there other NHS-patients who are similarly treated very badly
whilst there is another group of NHS-patients who are treated favourable?

I am asking because that is my problem with NHS-doctors:
NHS-doctors were very kind and very caring to one group of NHS-patients
whilst they treat - at the same time - another group of NHS-patients very badly...

Thanks for your answer, Kristina.
