hospitalization

I was just in the hospital because of several things and went by ambulance. Because of going by ambulance tuesday night everything happened so quickly like being in my pj's but did not have any underwear on. So, I was admitted to the hospital and I had to get into a hospiatl gown. Well, I had some male nurses and was reacting to having them and not wearing any underwear. I am not sure what else to say right now just the trigger that I had and not feeling so well. Better enough to come home from the hospital.

Sorry that happened to you. Are you at least feeling better from what you had to go there for?

Sorry about your discomfort ladydi.

Hospitals seem to creep most people out in one way or another- lack of privacy, lack of control, depersonalization etc etc. So as you recover know your reaction is one shared by so many others.

Nice to see you posting again, and hope you are better soon.

Glad you're home. I had a bad experience with some male nurses, the weekend shift, who roughed me up a bit unnecessarily and had me put in restraints without any clothes on. Talk about triggers. Hope you're better from whatever condition you went in for in the first place. Keep us posted.
