Felt that the preparation instructions were not practical. It seemed to me the timing of the doses were to close to the time of admittance to the hospital. Had I followed the given instructions I believe I would have been forced to cancel the procedure. My attempt, a week before the date of the procedure, to query the prep instructions with the surgeons secretary was, I recall, met with abrupt disdain and the discourse was terminated. Little wonder then the procedure report listed Preparation as Sub optimal.
In conclusion I attempted to make my own adjustments to the preparation but obviously did not get it quite right. Also I felt very disappointed as that part of the procedure is of the utmost importance to the overall result. As a public Patient I am not given access to the Surgeon who only sees you just prior to the procedure with enough time to sign a form of permission.
