[QUOTE="trinity0097, post: 1345081, member: 158613"] Been hospitalised for the second time since Christmas for severe acute cholecystitis (gall stones and inflamed gallbladder). Finally got to a ward last night, after they ordered breakfast. They will only let me eat low fat, so tried to give me cereal this morning. I refused that and went to speak to a car assistant she said, yes low fat diet, I said, yes low fat and low carb please, she said, that is low fat - don't think she knows what a carb is! I explained that I can only eat low carb, the nurse said that was impossible as you need carbs for energy. I explained I had been doing it for 2 years with no problems and that a diabetic doctor at another hospital said it was fine. I asked if I could have some scrambled eggs, no to that, she offered porridge. She has gone away to see what she can get me. I offered to eat some ham and salad. Yesterday I ate the inside of a NHS ham sandwich for supper in the assessment unit, was too ill to get a proper meal. So frustrating [/QUOTE]
