Hi,
My husband is on end of life care he is at home with support from our local hospice.
Last night my husband was in a lot of pain whilst I was moving him for personal care.He has been very unwell with a urine infection and I also think he may be getting a chest infection.
I called out the hospice nurse and my GP, the hospice nurse came out and said my husband needed morphine patches and to get his chest examined, she called my Gp and told her what my husband needs.
GP arrived, with a prescription for the patch, but said she could not give it to me because it is a controlled drug and that I have to collect it from the surgery in an hour.
I asked her to examine my husbands chest, she said ''Oh I can't I never came with my stethoscope''.
Just what's the point of all, my husband is dying, he is still a living person why don't they understand that. I feel so depressed, angry, and upset.
Kayze.
