I came in at 11.30pm on Mon night with numbness down the left side of my from head to toe and headache...I was seen to straight away...got bloods done came back normal as usual felt like a hypochondriac once again🙄but was glad but wanted answers not bad news but some news why I felt the way I did but I really appreciated the care I received I got a cat scan of brain a chest x-ray, as sometimes I don't fully trust blood results ...everything was clear...I felt really relieved but stupid then too 😂 sat 12 hours but I didn't mind...because at least I got peace of mind! As I felt so scared! I decided to type everything down on my phone (symptoms) to show the doctor because by the time I got seen to I could hardly speak/think with tiredness, and fair play to him he read every word Thank you! He was so nice.. The only thing that showed up was 2+ blood in urine but was told to just drink plenty of water...but confused why I wasn't giving an antibiotic...but anyway just couldn't wait to get outa there me and me PJ's was affronted 🙈
