My dad is in hospital

My dad is in hospital

He had a really really bad pain down his right side last night and started being sick at about midnight. By about 3am he was being really violently sick every 10mins or so :s NHS helpline sent a doctor over cos apparently he would need to assess the situation and decide if there's a need for an ambulance. Once that lazy sod got here (45mins or so) he made some pretty unsuitable jokes about the broadband we have and our outside light :s then decided an ambulance to hospital would be a good idea.

They're doing more tests on him cos he's still in pain..

hope he's ok

hope he is ok

Hope he gets better soon.

Yeah me too.. he's never been in hospital before and he's terrified of it. He was walking out of Hexham hospital before after visiting my mam a few years back and was retching cos he cannot stand the smell of dinner time He also had nightmares about having gas to put him to sleep cos my mam told him it had a weird 'hospital' smell.

He's going to be loving it. Hope he's not in pain for long though :s

aww i feel so sorry for him

i hate hospitals, dr's and dentists

the NHS is shit, youve gotta be dying before they bother with you, its appauling

I know. The doctor was an idiot though. He kept making inappropriate jokes as if my dad wasn't wriggling around in agony whilst making the worst puking noises I've ever heard. All he did was fill out soem forms then phone an ambulance and we had to wait about 45mins for the doctor to turn up in the first place.

Hope he's ok,

I was in hospital for the 1st time this weekend, had to have a operation last nite and i was petrified of gettin put to sleep!
Tell him it aint too bad, the oxygen mask just smells like plastic

hope everythin goes ok for him.

Hope he's OK mate.

Noone would choose to be in hospital, it's never going to fun, and nor is the reason for being in there.

But it's better than the alternative

where was ya operation ?

Hope things go ok

all that mask was giving you was oxygen at first - they will have put a drug in your arm to send you to sleep, then gas only once you were asleep

Good shit.

i know, the oxygen helps tho, i was trying to say that the mask doesnt have a hospital smell.

Ben, is it still sore?

*edit* And hope your dads ok!! :flowers:

hope hes ok, my mam slipped and fell in bathroom last year but the ambulance wasnt even going to take her into hospital and stitch her head up in our house,
luckily after my neighbour had a go at them to take her they did, and found a tumor in her brain, she died in may this year, but if it wasnt for my neighbour finding her and making the ambulance take her to hospital she would have been gone a lot sooner

Hope he's ok

He has a kidney stone apparently. He was being sick so much that he's strained his left eye. Looks like he has a massive black pupil

That is meant to be pretty much the worst pain you can have.

He defo backed that up with sound effects i'll tell u that much. What's the course of treatment for it? They haven't touched it yet but he's back here at home (for now I guess..)

You have to be pretty ill to strain your eyeball haha I shouldn't really be laughing

You don't know what you're talking about


Hope hes alright MrB
