So Dairrien had his original spinal fusion surgery for a 92 degree kyphosis curve,the surgery was performed at Shriners Hospital in Sacramento..He then had to go back in because they didnt ave the drain all the way in and it came out 3 days post op...so he went back into surgery 4 days after his original surgery..
I am severly disappointed with the care he recieved there at Shriners...the nurses were completly rude..there were a cuple that were nice...There were quite a few times I had to argue to get his pain meds..They WILL NOT come in on a regular basis...they will give you pain meds when YOU ask for them..so I wound up setting my alarm on my cell phone,and going and asking for his mes..if I didnt dairrien would wake in so much pain ...that he would cry and scream for hours until the meds kicked in..so I wound up not leaving and when I did go take a shower or eat it would be after I got Dare his meds,and I would make sure I was back in time for him to get his other sceduled dose...so that was a whole heep of fun..lol..NOT!!
Ok so last week dairrien was running out of his percacet..and I called them..She said no problem,we will mail him out a script because you have to have it in order to get it,as it cannot be called in etc..so in the mean time they call in norco,which makes him dizzy and sick to his stomach..but since thats all we had he had to take it..so today I get what I thought was a good script...I take it to the pharmacy and they say ooooo we cant fill it on this we need a regular script..the script they gave me was a white peice of pape that said shriners on it,and the meds on it so I get on the phoen to shriners and she tells me well,your going to have to come pick this up..i said HELLO I live 2 and half hours away..I cant.. can you please just MAIL another script and make sure its right this time..she said oh sorry we cant mail it,I will have the doctor call you,GRRRR !! So in the mean time,Dairrien is in pain and needs his percacet,so I take the script over top his Primary car doctor and said,look what they did..He was in shock of what they did,and the care he recieved...So he wrote him a script...
OK,Dairrien was released 1 week ago sunday,They NEVER called to see how he was doing...,they never called to set up his follow up either...which they stated they would do....So...this has not been a nice time..
However,dairriens back is straight Thats the possitive..he is still in alot of pain though Can't do much...lays in bed or in the recliner most of the time..
anyways so thats our update,more of a rant though..lol...I attached a picture of before and after....
