They are good

December 12, 2022
Go every three months. They are good but my doctor is very rude. If I ask for something, my English is not very good. Doctor said I am not entitled to an interpreter on NHS. They do not provide it for MS. Want to go to Good hope but no MS nurse.

Had eye cancer, had eye removed and has been seen under cancer department the thing that was keeping eye socket up had disintegrated and ended up having major brain injury. Cancer team haven’t bothered with her because of covid. Sent a cortozone injection through the post with no examination to what it was for and when have to take it. Than was told it was for Addison’s disease. Ended in crises and GP said they couldn’t deal with it.

Waited only an hour

Fell over hurt my arm. I went to A&E and waited only an hour. Sent for x-rays, nothing broken just the muscle playing up. They put a sling on but it was too short, it took me weeks to get better.

They put me in touch with the counselling services Bupa or Macmillan. Cancer is an emotional disturbance. With my mental health sometimes they delay things with me. They tell me I have to wait to get an appointment.
