NO CLOCK, or the bullshit stupidass sleepstudy from hell, or the worm turns

[ophelialaughs]

So we're having a blizzard.  I go to the stupid thing anyway.  They call me sir and stick me in a room and give me a tv remote that doesn't work, and then go away for some indeterminate period of time.  At first I'm glad to see there's a fan.  No clock, though.  They come back and tell me my "real" tech is late.  Eventually she shows up and writes

Your Sleep Study

[ext_2442230]

Your "tech" needed a swift kick where the sun doesn't shine. What an arrogant b***h! I can't stand medical "professionals" who think they are better than anyone else. How dare her to presume that because she's a "tech" that she is the "boss". Screw her. Or, as you so aptly put it, F**k her!

I'm sorry your sleep test turned into such a disaster. I've never had one, and after reading about your experience I don't think I ever want to have one.

Absolutely fucking ridiculous. And yes, that tech was WAY out of bounds and needs to be flogged and then suffocated with a CPAP of her own. In fact, this might qualify as assault, particularly when she was pushing the mask down further on your face as you were fighting to get it off so you could breathe.

Make sure to tell the doctor at your next appointment all about the crap she was pulling. Also, write to the hospital administrator and carbon copy the state department of health and your doc so its (hopefully) placed in your medical file. Normally, I would say to just send this blog entry, but I'm reasonably sure that the completely justified strings of obscenities here would cause the bureaucrats to write you off as a hysterical bitch and ignore the valid complaints you have.

Absolutely tell the doc about this AND if there is such a thing as a patient advocate in this hell hole, be sure to tell her, too. Patient advocates are people the the staff sure as hell does NOT like to deal with. Trust me on this one. I'm so glad you didn't clock the bitch. There are laws nowadays, lol.

Good lord! I'm so sorry. It must have felt like you were being tortured! How horrible.

OMG

I am sorry for your ordeal with the tech from hell... but... do you have to make even horrible things sooooo dang entertaining to read? I laughed so hard. I am praying for the day you are out of school and healthy and can go back to writing. You have been blessed with such an amazing way with words.
Love ya bunches.
