07-21 Hospital, Day Four
Still no doctor's visits, just the resident. The resident said that Dr. Livingston won't be back until tomorrow, but that he will drag him over personally if he doesn't come to see me. :) I'm once again getting the feeling of being shuffled, or put off, or just maintained, until Dr. Livingston is back and can handle me himself. Is this a liability issue?
The main hole is still getting smaller, but the tunnels are not keeping up. Now I have to wonder about the possibility of the main hole closing before the tunnels do, which isn't good.
And apparently the resident left orders for Accucheck sticks several times a day. This is really annoying. He apparently glanced at my chart, saw that I'm on Glucophage, and just ASSUMED I'm diabetic and need checks. Assumed. I hate people who assume. And they do it so often with the Glucophage. I have to practically beat it into people's heads that I'M NOT DIABETIC!!! If I was diabetic, it would be on my chart! So now I have to argue with the nurses or techs several times a day, because I'm refusing the sticks. My sugar is normal. I will know if it's low, and it certainly won't be high. I'm stuck in bed sewing all day, I do not need any more holes in my fingers.
