My Dad is back in hospital.....

He had surgery on his back on Thursday and was let out on Saturday

Today he went back in - in terribel pain

The consultant came in and they do not have a clue what has gone wrong - it's basic easy surgery and it has a 99+% success rate

My Mum is beside herself

Thanks

DD is also vey upset - I suppose the most worrying thing is thaa the consultant doesn't understand what is going on

Hope all is well soon.

I thought that a slipped disc op (not it's right name) was fairly straight forward and standard

Things aren't supposed to go wrong

Hey KatyMac sorry to hear your dad is having trouble. are you on msn, do you want a chat?

Katymac · 12/03/2006 21:13

I can be (I think?) I'm not very good at the computer thing - but Nannynick made me get this MSN thing - and I don't really know how to work it?

He had the scan at 11am yesterday and so far has not spoken to a doctor or consultant

He is so pi%%ed off

And he doesn't know if they are going to charge him more as it appears to have gone wrong

He had a second op last night as he had slipped another disc

And he had slipped it again (plonker)
