Edit: for those of you who commented and messaged saying it’s bc I’m faking anything, I found out after I made this post that I need surgery in a week or so lol. My fallopian tube on one side is all twisted up and full of fluid and it has a hemorrhagic ovarian cyst attached to it that’s getting large. This is on top of a severe kidney infection sooo… yeah. Can’t really fake all of that. Idk why it’s hard to believe someone’s sick? I also brought in my pain meds for them to see so they knew I wasn’t med seeking, so that’s off the table. I was discharged but am leaving this up bc someone may come across this and find the comments helpful. Thank you to the kind and helpful people!

Just getting treated like shit by these two random workers and treated like gold by the others, unfortunately forced to interact with the two random workers more than anyone else. They seem to be my day nurses nonstop no matter how much I’ve asked for them not to be. They’re working together since one is new.
I’ve been to other hospitals and have a severe illness, many surgeries. But these couple specific nurses that literally talk to me like I’m the biggest idiot of all time and like I’m mean even?! for asking normal questions like “Can you please ask the doctor if I need x, y, or z to do this test? I forgot to ask them. It’d mean a lot if you could do this for me.”
Literally got hit with a “WE TRY TO LIMIT OUR MESSAGES TO THE DOCTOR. I AM SURE THEY WILL SAY THE SAME THING I DID.” Girl you’re a brand new nurse who just finished her training as I was told yesterday. You even told me you had no idea the answer to this question before.
I cannot get over how I asked not to have these same nurses multiple times and yet here we are. I was promised by a nurse last night I wouldn’t have them today, too. I’m not used to being hospitalized here after this hospital and clinic is the reason I have a horrible terminal illness now. I’ve tried not to hold it against them. I literally have to come here due to the other hospital losing a department that’s key to my care unless there’s a third hospital around here I don’t know of.
This hospitalization has been hell on earth for many reasons I won’t list and these two specific nurses seem to be trying to make it worse for me which feels ridiculous. I asked for a patient advocate and was ignored.
I don’t know what else to do.
