Hey #CPP fam! Have any of you ever felt blackmailed or coerced into talking medication just to get your pain meds? Details will follow in the enclosed thread. 1/?
I’m currently #inpatient for a #SickleCellCrisis and the morning attending talked with me in front of the nurse that instead of getting pain meds every two hours, It would be every three hours, but I would get some breakthrough doses so my pain doesn’t spiral out of control.
However, every time I asked for a dose, the orders weren’t in the system. So I’ve been fighting for these extra doses ALL DAY LONG! I could tell that the nurse felt bad about it too. At shift change the orders STILL AREN’T IN THE COMPUTER! 😡🤬😤
