Please forgive me for not writing for a while. It has been two days since I have last written, and I will tell you why as soon as I can here. I can say right now that I am dealing with a lot of crap emotionally and figured out while watching Law & Order on Peacock on my bedroom TV. Although it has been ONLY two days, it feels longer to me with my emotions playing their parts the past couple of days. Yet here I am.
Dialysis Update
Treatment went well. Even though we decided to pull 2200 kilos of fluid from my body, the machine had to stop pulling fluid fifteen minutes away from getting off the machine for the day. I have called YBWF (You Buy We Fly) to let them know that I could be downstairs by 2:30 PM.
Kay, the social worker came to me and said that the notes in my Froedert MyChart stated that they may not consider me a kidney transplant coordinator because I cannot walk. What right does she have in telling me this, and Froedert had seen and received notes of my emotional outbursts at dialysis because they have recorded every outburst I had at the clinic. Oh, my goodness gracious, I am really disliking Mercy Health System more each day. I told Jackie right after you away what happened, and I will be leaving MercyHealth as soon as possible. I FINISHED with MercyHealth and will get going to leave them and go to Fresenius Dialysis Center in Creston Park Mall off Milton Avenue.a
Dialysis went well today, although the machine had to get it be stopped to only clean when I had fifteen minutes left to dialyze before being weighed again on the out. Looking forward to the weekend.
Kay, the dialysis social worker dropped in for a chat. She asked how my appointment was at Froedert yesterday and read the notes from that meeting. I told her that someone had told Froedert about my emotional outbursts. I was not thrilled that Froedert had been given that information. I was not thrilled at all to be very honest with you. I told Jackie what happened, and I am leaving MercyHealth nephrology now for sure, and we will be working on that starting today. Mercy can access Froedert accounts and see what they have on patients they referred to Froedert. Kay informed me that someone wrote that I may not be a candidate for another transplant because I cannot walk. This is what I thought... “What! Who has been telling Froedert about my so-called emotional upsets outbursts?” I found that, unbelievable and wrong, as I did not give anyone permission to do so. I am not happy with MercyHealth, and I am going to leave MercyHealth Dialysis to go to Fresenius.
Not Happy with MercyHealth!
As soon as I got home, Jackie called Dr. Taylor’s office to talk to the nurse and told her what we/I needed to do and wanted. I want to do therapy in a pool—water exercise and therapy at Mercy East. Eve though I am having issues with MercyHealth right now, SSM/St. Mary’s does not have a pool with their physical therapy.
