Guest guest Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 I had my doctor tell me off one hospital stay, because I was accused of eating Mcs French Fries. Yes there was a Mcs bag in my trash can, and yes there was a bag with some fries in there, but I didn't eat them. My mother had brought my daughter in to visit me and they got themselves McD's for their lunch. I had no problem with them eating it in my room. My door was open, my room was across from the nurses lunchroom, and they would look in at me and vice versa at times...but an LPN ? went and told my doctor that my pain was increased because she saw me eating fries. Even my mother had a word with the doctor stating that she never lies (which she never has, not even if it was to get one of her children out of trouble), and they were hers and my daughter's lunch and threw the bag in my bin...but no, every change of shift after that I was told to not eat anything anyone brought in, or they would discharge me. It was also still put on my charts. I could never keep food down at that time unless it was liquids, and I'm not stupid enough to deliberately give myself extreme bouts of pain when already in pain.... Think i'll ask for a lie detector test should anything like that ever happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
