Friend texting me after surgery: They're trying to give me just tylenol. Me: Tell them that's not the plan agreed upon pre-op and failure to address pain appropriately is associated with worse treatment outcomes. Her: did that and they say they will give me meds but not the ones effective for me. Me: Mk tell them you'd like the charge nurse to review the treatment plan. Her: I did that and they just asked who I'm talking with rn. Can I say you're my lawyer? Me: Nah tell them I'm your advocate. And then tell them that you have a lawyer on retainer if they wanted his info (she does have one). Her: Did that. Her: They're giving me the right meds. Her: The charge nurse said she'd handle things and asked that I let you know there will not be issues going forward. Me: Let her know I expect there to not be but that I operate on-call.
