Blind folded pocket duties required......

Turbogran

Hi Tony have only just seen your post so will pass on the pocket duties besides with a blindfold on knowing me i will proberbly fall over again and once this week is enough :oops: but my thoughts are with you hope everything gose or is going ok

Stand down everyone, transport have not turned up for him as they have no record of his needing their services, despite his being booked with them for the past three weeks. I am sure yet another accusatory notice will go up on a board in the camera department detailing yet another 'missed appointment'. Well, not by our Tone, it wasn't, it was the hospital's bl**dy admin at fault. Apparently he's now booked in for a week today. DD

Oh Tony you have been treated abysmally. You have got to complain in writing to someone or other, goodness knows who the right person is, right now.

Presumably you had to "have a clean out" before this procedure and that is not the most pleasant of things to have to do if it is anything like the stuff you have to take to get cleared out before a colonoscopy. So you will have to repeat all that. Tony, that is so bad of the hospital/ ambulance appointment system.

I am soooooo cross for you and how you have been treated today.

Love
Elna x

Sorry, mate. That must be so annoying. I think you should make a complaint if only so that it's on record that it was their fault not yours. Better luck next time, eh?

traluvie

What a bummer Tony..
Not good at all, as others suggested i think some verbal is in need to find out what the dickens happened and that you are not happy with there cock up..
Will be with you next week..

thanks everyone...
it is what it is I suppose... Elna, bless you hun, the only good thing about having this arthur is that I couldn't physically PREPARE myself, ahem, if you know what I mean.. Think fairy liquid bottle, then add a non too supple arthritic.. No way coupe I manage that.. Lol
So it was going to be done once there... Thankfully.. I really would have been pee'd off if I had gone through doing that first..
If it had been a full colonoscopy then I would have drank a lot of nasty stuff first thing. Good job it was only a sigmoidoscopy.. You don't have to ingest all that crap (pardon the pun) before you go...

So, sorry for the mess around, half ten next monday please..

Hi Tony, The same happened to me last Wednesday! I waited up untill 15mins before my appointment with the O.T and the ambulance didn't show so I rang the transport people up and they said 'Oh we have moved your pick up time to 1.30pm' (that was 30mins after the appointment time!) I has to bite my tongue! I said that's no good my appointments 1pm and I have another appointment after! I said cancel the pick up and just collect me to go home. They where so half soaked. I got my local taxi to pick me up (They have a disabled taxi that has ramps and roles you on). And when the Ambulance picked me up the paramedic said to an ambulance went to your house to pick you up and you wheren't there! I told the paramedic what had happened and he said 'the people who do the bookings are a right bunch of useless b******ds' that was word for word! And he told the since the new system went in there have been loads of problems and mistakes people not being picked up and not being collected at the right times. So it happened to me as well Tony!

tkachev

Have you double checked that ambulance booking for Monday Tony? Just checking.

morning bubba, elizabeth..
Have received my new appointment letter this morning, in red ink at bottom... Transport arranged for 9.30...
It must be right if it's in RED ink, lol

I wouldn't mind, the ward rang me yesterday to see if I would mind if the appointment was moved yet again to three o'clock on monday.. I said I don't care what time out is as long as the transport turns up... She said... Oh, if you've got transport we won't change it then!!
My last appointment time was changed FOUR TIMES..
Never mind... Lol

Hope the appointments went ok amanda.
Not really been online past couple of days. Just popped in now as in sat in the car waiting for Janet.

The very best of luck for tomorrow, Tony mate, I know it's not quite 'To infinity and beyond!' but it must be damn near close to it! I hope all goes well. DD

tjt6768

thank you dear DD... It is indeed tomorrow now after the let down of last week.. Lol
So folks.... Get the blindfolds back out.. And the ear plugs please..
For in the morning some stranger will stick a camera where the sun does not shine in an effort to find out if I've got IBD as well as the IBS..
I can think of better ways of spending a monday morning, lol..

Hope that you'll join me in the adventure of a life time, a journey into another time, into a realm of unknowns a forray into a land of colons and hairy bums..
Or you could just pretend to tag along instead.. Lol

dreamdaisy

With any luck mate Ra will be behind the camera! And not only that he should be able to sort you out too - well, that's my hope. DD

tjt6768

bless you DD..
He is after all a fully trained camera man and anal prober :shock:

tjt6768

well, I'm here again.. Awaiting transport, hoping this time they don't forget about me, lol

I'll post once I'm home..

Hope everyone is ok..

I'm as ready to be violated as I'll ever be :shock:
