To cut a long sotry short my faith in Doctors has once again been floored ..
I was admitted 3 weeks ago with acute bladder retention which they initially said was caused by lupus I was doubled up in agony .. they sent me for a scan which showed my polycystic Ovarian syndrome had flared up and had a huge cyst on my ivary so they then said the retention was due to that and it would go away. after 2 weeks of being in hospital they were going to send me home even though I was in agony and still in retention,
Well 2 days later got a second opinion and he agreed to do my 8th laparoscopy in 18 months ,when I came round I had all my family round my bed which I couldn't understand it turned out I was in theatre for nearly 6 hours becuase I had a major internal bleed in my abfomen spleen and uterus , andthey had found 6 lumps in my bladder.
Apparently all the bleeding was caused by high INR from Warfarin and they had completly missed it I was in for nearly 3 weeks I am still fuming ... they removed lumps and sent off for biopsy which luckily came back negative for cancer but I am still confused about how they missed all this going on if I had of gone home when told I would of died !!!
sorry to rant on but I have lost faith in consultants at my local hospital and upset about what may have happened
