So today we pitched up at the hospital at a different department and it was packed so thought we would be there for a while so sat down for the long wait.
Within two minutes the nurse came in who we have got to know well and she said I was booked in for surgery and would come back in a minute so literally in the blink of an eye we were called through to the examination room and there was another nurse in there who we also know very well and somehow she was aware of the tablets mix up.
Anyway next one in was the consultant who again was one I knew so all was good even though I'm thinking I'm of to surgery.
The Dr wasn't aware as to my wound bursting so I showed her a video of it and she couldn't understand why none of the scans had picked it up especially when I told her the amount that came out in the morning and the same before bed time!!
So she peeled a very my very mucky stinky dressing and proceeded to insert a swab stick in then her finger and asked if I was ok to which I said no but just do what you need to do quickly so after a lot of prodding and poking she had found where everything was coming from she said I wouldn't need surgery.
So after the nurses had cleaned everything and stuffed me full of some ribbon stuff we were good to go.
So the plan is to be stuffed three times a week for the foreseeable so hopefully now they can treat the cause and I can move on.
Also now all that stuff is out of me I'm starting to feel better in myself which is good as there is nothing worse than feeling like that all the time.
