OK so yesterday wasn't the best day, Patient was having contractions and they ended up having to give her 2 shots of the terb. They up the frequency of her oral terb pills to every 4 hours. Hopefully that will stabilize everything. Anyhow why doctors suck. So the dumb B!tch walks in and starts talking to us and everything she said we had to correct her. It was like she thought we were a different patient. I was about to explode and all that was running through my head was RTFM!!!!!! but in this case the manual would have been Patients chart. About the only thing she had right was Patients name. She ended up doing a physical exam and Patients cervix was still closed (thank god) but when i asked her if the exam would change the treatment she said no. So i asked her if the exam would provide any relevant information in terms of decision making, She said "no but it is nice to know". So let me get this straight, the exam doesn't help make decisions and it wont provide info for future courses of treatment, so it sounds to me like she just wanted to probe my wife for fun, and i am sure poking my wife's already overactive cervix is the best course of action. Makes me so angry i am tempted to go back and re type this using ALL CAPS. On another note i am quickly coming to the conclusion that Patient is handling this better than Patients hubby. Every single wave on the monitor causes me to hold my breath and worry. Then i feel super guilty every time i leave Patient lying in the hospital while i go home to our comfy bed. I cant even receive phone calls from Patient any more, she has to send me a text first before calling because every time her customized ring tones sounds i panic. So that is how last night went, they also put her back on iv fluids, just what her arm needs, another hole poked in it. Haven't been to the hospital yet today but will update soon, tomorrow Patient might get to see the specialist (we like this guy a lot) and get his recommendations for treatment.
On a final i just want to finish with Dr. From Last night, YOU SUCK!
