I recently had a tubal ligation and ablation done. I was in recovery for 3 hours as the nurse pointed out. I experienced a lot of pain for something I was told I would have minimal pain. I told the nurse several times I could not urinate & that I would push but just trickles would come out, and I was At a 10 in pain level . She told me the trickles of urine were fine that , it was a sign my bladder was working . She gave pain medicine and discharged me . I gathered My medical record from tenova and what do you know the nurse falsified my chart saying i was at 3 on pain level and I could Urinate successful with no problems .

I went back to tenova Er 13 hours later because i was still not able to urinate. They put a catheter in and I still Had pain in my abdomen. Turns out the Doctor clamped my Ureter shut. Yep he clamped my tube that runs from my kidney to my bladder shut .

Had the nurse not lied during my recovery the obstruction to my ureter could have been detected early on instead hours laters .

I now have a nephrostomy bag on my kidney until I m able to see another urologist on the 26th of March . A month out from the day of the initial surgery .

Risk management was no help and admitted to hearing about the incident but had no words as to why she did not contact me . She even said the issue was being looked into . How do you look into an incident without contacting the person it happened to ?

I am a healthy person , never had surgery until feb 26th . Never understood why people had bad reviews on tenova, well now I do. I m a victim of negligence from the nurse in my recovery room and the doctor that performed the initial surgery.
