"Probably my worst experience in a hospital "

About: Airedale General Hospital

Was admitted for stroke like symptoms, Cat scan showed shadows on my brain.

Duty doctor sent me to the stroke ward where the doctor woman in there said straight away, "you have had depression in the past" I replied with "yes, 25 years ago, that's irrelevant"

But she wouldn't let it go, like depression was the cause of suspected stroke, she point blank refused to talk about my symptoms etc and I felt like I was in a witch hunt for one being depressed when I was a teenager.

Absolutely shocking
