PLEASE CONSIDER ALL
THIS A F.O.I. REQUEST.
(Freedom of Information Act Request)

email : emmasmith90@yahoo.com
: if you want copies of our documents or emmas diary to date.
I have
decided to write this because the feedback from our surgeon has not been as
informative as I would have liked it to have been. And as the nhs receives
public funding, it should therefore in return be forthcoming with the info it
collects on behalf of its patients. That said, I now feel it necessary to
involve the HR (human resources) relevant to the surgeon, and instruct them
accordingly to the FOI act rules (freedom of information act) and am telling
everyone reading this that this is ALL now a freedom of information act
request. I also instruct the relevant authority and HR department to ensure
that ALL correspondence sent to us from now on, is seconded in opinion either
by the HR department and/or another surgeon of similar skillset so to speak. HR
can decide how to deal with this internally for now. If I don’t hear within
30days in writing or email with an answer to EACH question I ask, I will
consider that to be a failure to honour my request, and then will definitely go
and seek some outside legal advice. I don’t want to do that I don’t want to do
that I don’t want to do that, but if I am avoided one more time by the said
surgeon (who I presume is on an oath or contract) that will be my next step. If
my questions are crappy, then say so, you certainly wont offend me. If you cant
answer then say so.
So please
please please, can someone, anyone out there, help me to help get my emma
better again. That’s all I want really.
Its been
nearly THREE months since the op, then we get a response from the surgeon, that
fails to answer a single question I raised concerns over. The letter dated
07-10-2020 then takes a further month to get to us by post (unless it was
posted after his leave of-course) so that’s just under 3 months before the
surgeon decides to respond. Not good enough!!!
That’s
disgusting in my eyes and needs some serious HR attention if you want my
opinion.
Along with ‘’ALL’’
questions previously submitted, below I have added a few more. ALL are to be
treated as a FOI request now. If you can also respond or give your thoughts on
particular paragraphs or statements I have made along the way then please do.
Failure to honour the FOI within 30days will definitely result in further
action. If there are any charges incurred please let me know so I can pay you
accordingly thank you.
Q9 surgeon
: why didn’t you answer my questions when you first received them.
Q10 surgeon
: can we please have a copy of the biopsy analysis thank you.
Q11 surgeon
: if this a fair statement that represents emmas view of the op day (done for
universal credits online update) and can you add or correct anything here. Is
there anything else you told emma that she hasn’t written down here that might
help me understand her condition a little better thank you.
I had a Laparoscopy
Operation on Tuesday 1st September 2020. To find out if I have got
Endometriosis.
They showed
me the photos and said that I have not got Endometriosis.
They said
that they did find some little white bits which they have cut out and sent off
for testing. The consultant said that I will get the results in a few weeks. He
had also said that he will no longer need to see me.
Q12 all :
emma has given me consent to represent her and act on her behalf. Do you accept
this. If not please get in touch with emma directly and ask her thank you.
Q13 hr &
surgeon : please answer the following thank you. If you feel your latest
response covers this q then please say so here thank you.
you did
say to emma on ther day that she would not need to see you again, and so i can
only assume there is nothing else you can do for her, and would like you to
advise us on who we can go and see next regarding her conditioning. if it isnt
endo then can you please state your opinion in writing to us so we can try
someone else who covers the anatomy from a different perspective.
Q1 – Q8 surgeon
& anyone : surgeon please answer all previously made available questions
and anyone with an opinion, advice, or food for thought please chip in.
(Q7b all
: addition: do you know we hardly ever
have sex now because just the arousal puts emma in severe pain. I am asking
EVERYONE who reads this. Is that normal. What causes this. How did this come to
be. Have you come across this symptom before???)
Q14 all : as
originally made available,,,
[[[ Emmas
consent given for me to act on her behalf: I
would like to say I do constant to you speaking to Stuart on my behalf because
he will understand you better than me ]]]
And as I
said previously,,,
have my
consent to forward this info in its entirety to anyone who you think may be
able to advise or help me and emma in any way shape or form whatsoever. that is
my ONLY intent in this letter, nothing else, period.
PLEASE – if you know someone in the nhs that may be able to help, you
are now duty bound by your oath or contract within the NHS as a Public Service Provider
to consciously knowingly help us as I am now formally asking you to do so. If
you don’t know then fine, say so, but if you do then please forward these
details to them. If the surgeon feels he has already answered this by way of
the latest response than please say so here thank you. And please don’t just
assume I want to make a complaint royal college, Unhelpful.
Q15 surgeon & assistant : as per
emmas statement please tell us why this did not happen.
I had my Laparoscopy Operation on
Tuesday 1st September 2020. I was told I would get a letter through
the post within two weeks of having the operation and I still not heard
anything and it been almost five weeks.
Q16 surgeon
& theatre support team : as per emmas request, please answer this
giving as much detail in writing as you can thank you. If you feel the latest
response answer is sufficient then please say so.
I would like to know what it is you
have found and what the results was from the lab. Both me and my partner Stuart
wants to know exactly what you did during the operation. We also want to know
why you said you did not want to see me again.
Q17 surgeon :
2nd opinion surgeon : as per my emmas statement
I am still not back at work. I still
cannot pick up my son. I am still struggling to sit down on a chair or the sofa
for a certain amount of time. Standing is also still an issue. I can only do
little jobs around the house but even then after about 10-15 minutes I am in
severe pain and I am in bed for the rest of the day.
Taking into
account surgeons latest biopsy report confirming endometriosis, I am asking
what stage of endometriosis do you think my emma is at, taking into account
this comment, and ALL previously submitted comments, as well as her extensive
diary she has been keeping from the beginning. Please let me know if you need
copies of anything.
Q18 all
reading this who have input or advice or opinion : with reference to emmas
notes
I am not taking the Tramadol as much
during the day that is because I am in bed resting most days. I am taking at
least 2 Tramadol in the night. I have noticed that if I do not take Tramadol
for a few hours and I am moving about the house the pain kicks in and it’s a
severe sharp stabbing pain.
I still cannot touch my belly or right side because it is so tender and sore.
I am defiantly slowly going back to the way I was before the Operation.
And my q5 as
follows here for reference to this question only
on her right
side by the belly by one of the insisions, and mainly at night now after a pee
since the op, she has always had intermittantly sharp short stabbing pains
which are extremely painfull to her, and totally debillatating to the point she
goes to her own bed and takes her tradamol.
what is causing this. What does the incision have to do with this. What causes
the sharp stabbing pains. Please give me your informed diagnosis as well as
general opinions. Is there a history of this with previous patients having
similar previous past procedures. Perhaps some statistical data analysis is may
help here.
Q19 surgeon
& assistant : emmas statement.
Since we sent the email to Mr Rai on
the 4th October we have not heard anything still. I have been
looking at my emails at least 3-4 times a day. We been looking at the letter
box every morning to see if we had a letter. I have had my phone with me all
the time, but no phone call.
Did you
receive the email? When did you first read it? Who read it? Why did no one
respond?
Q20 surgeon
& hr or surgeon second opinion : emmas statement as follows
Notice lately my urine is starting
smelling really bad and I get sharp stabbing pains in my side after I pee. I am
still spending my days in bed. Taking Tramadol up to 4 a day now that is also
counting the ones I take at night. Still relying on my partner Stuart to do
stuff around the house and to look after our son John.
The other night I was up most of the
night and by the time I fell asleep I had taken 3 Tramadol to help with the
pain I was in. Last night (Sunday 18th October) was a bad night. I
woke up in severe pain. I had to text Stuart to come through because of the
pain I was in. Our son John even woke up and got disrupted by the situation.
Can you
please diagnose or give your informed opinion on why this is happening or what
is going on here thank you.
Q21 anyone
who can help : emmas statement
I have waited long enough, been in
pain long enough. I want answers please and I want them soon please. I also
want to be taken to the next step. Thank you for your co-operation.
How long does
she have to wait? Can anyone on the payroll out there help? Can anyone out
there advise?
Q22 anyone
who can help : my statemet given previously.
she did
try and walk with me to the nursery with her crutches once, but had to turn
back after about 10minutes to go home upon me asking her how she was, as she
was in severe pain and was struggling to cope with the walk
for PIP
reference: she walked from our home to bridge over a441 to hollytrees nursery
and google maps says thats 0.5miles. in hindsite it was way too much for her
and she was hobbling on her crutches all the way, she wont be attempting it
again.
Do you think taking tramadol for the rest of her life is the answer
here? Can anyone diagnose or give an informed opinion on what is wrong with my
emma? Do you know of anyone who might be able to help my emma please???
Q23 surgeon & 2nd opinion
: as per excerpts of emmas talk with Dr Wiggett on Wednesday 21st
October 2020
Dr Wiggett said she was going to
email the Doctor who did my operation as soon as possible, to find out what
happened on the day and what they found. She going to find out what the
doctor’s next line of enquiry was and who I need to see next.
She said there was no notes or
feedback in my folder on the computer from the Hospital regarding my operation
I asked Dr Wiggett if it could be
anything else apart from Endometriosis, e.g. like my kidneys. She said that she
doesn’t think it is anything else and that it is Gynaecology related issue.
I am hoping that if she finds out
anything from the doctor who did my operation that she will let me know as soon
as possible.
Did your
department get this email and when did you get it? Do you agree with dr
wiggetts diagnosis? Can HR get a second opinion from another same qualified
surgeon please?
Q24 surgeon
& assistand & HR : as per surgeon response, we had delivered
through the post box on 09-11-2020
: Our Ref: HR/CJ - Date:
07/10/2020 - NHS No: 6106007306 - Hospital
No: 4440496393
What day was
this letter sent please.
Q25 surgeon
& hr : as per surgeons latest letter.
| would suggest that you be reviewed
by the Endometriosis / Pelvic Pain Team for further discussion regarding
management of your symptoms. You should expect to hear from the Team fairly
shortly for an appointment in clinic
That’s fine.
We aknowledge you have passed us on to another department, and would like to
thank you for everything you have done as emma may not be better yet, but you
most definitely have given her an extra couple of weeks of reduced pain. Sad to
say though she is slipping back to the way she was.
Anyway,
question is, please honour this FOI act request as deemed and in full and appropriately
within the NHS guidelines, making sure the HR department is fully aware of my
request upon receipt of this FOI, and
kept informed at ALL stages of progress from now on, and a second opinion of
similar skillset at your surgical level is obtained wherever you can for my
peace of mind please thank you.
Finally, as before, I wish you all peace and blessings & love and light to
any and all. I wish no ill will to anyone, and know this to be true because
that is what I am made of. But I do want answers now. And this is your last
opportunity to treat me as you would wish to be treated if you were in my shoes
with your loved one suffering as mine is. If you need longer let me know and I
will extend the grace period, so as to ensure the very best of outcomes for the
wonderful woman I fell in love with all those years ago.
Thank you
for reading this, and god bless you all.
May Peace & Blessings & Prayers be with you.
stuart.
