I was rushed into Treliske recently with an unknown illness. I was totally out of it and remember nothing after getting put in the ambulance with my daughter. I arrived in A and E and was immediately assessed to be very poorly, again I have no recollection of anything other than being helped with everything. I was put in a cubicle there and constantly monitored by the amazing staff.
I moved up to a small ward and stayed there for several days before having the start of many tests and scans. I was then moved up to the GLU ward and after having scans and cat scans it was discovered I had an abscess on my liver, never heard of it before and was terrified to say the least.
After having 2 drains put into the abscess to drain it, more scans, antibiotics and pain control, I finally was allowed home a couple of weeks later, still on strong antibiotics for the next 40 days , plenty of outpatients appointments to follow up i am now beginning to feel human again.
But the love and care from all the wonderful staff at Treliske was amazing and I seriously can't thank them enough, from the minute I was admitted to the time I came home I totally cannot find anything but praise for every single member of staff from the amazing Doctors, nurses and all other ward staff , the porters to the cleaners. All I can say is GLU ward Treliske hospital Truro Cornwall you were and are amazing.
