Nope, collapsed on my way in (and the way out); they called an ambulance but I said I'd get my brother to take me so just waiting for him now.

Matt Posted October 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 Back home after what turned out to be a 16hr fast, the doc cancelled and idn't even bother coming to do that. I'm not kidding, he sent the now 8 month pregnant nurse that looked after me last time to tell me he doesn't know how to do the test. Which is written step by step on a piece of paper and consists of drawing blood at specific times. So I'm going to raise a formal complaint. A doctor who can't read, can't draw blood, can't tell the time and can't be bothered to visit the patient he's responsible for really needs another profession.

You may of had a lucky escape with him Matt, as well as a wasted day you are no further along with your diagnosis and treatment, it definitely warrants a formal complaint.

Blow me down with a feather, private is supposed to mean better care!

No. There's dickheads and superstars on both sides of that argument. As a frequent visitor, I've had plenty of experience of both too.

Palfy Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 Had one of my email accounts hacked today they sent emails and texts to all my contacts saying I needed some help and looking for money. It’s been a day from hell so many people contacting me concerned believing it was me, I couldn’t change my email password because they had changed it, I was still able to access account through face recognition, so was on the phone to provider for an hour passed from pillar to post trying to gain back control of my account. How I hark back to the days before mobile phones and computers I can’t remember being as stressed as I am now before internet technology, most of you have grown up with it and no know difference trust me life was so much more carefree before, now we are under the microscope and can’t escape.
