Last time I was in hospital I had my appendix out. They decided that I couldn't have food untill I could keep down over diluted squash because making me throw up food would be bad. Well, OK, that sorta makes sense. But whilst I have no inconvinient food intolerences over diluted squash invariably makes me feel sick, furthermore being ravenously hungry makes me feel sick... but the staff were having none of it. Took me ages to make them give me food - which was also vile.

I've no idea why hospitals are so incompetant with food...
