I attended A&E recently, there were no beds and I was dealt with as outpatient in Ambulatory Unit, had CT scan & X Ray (real quickly) which show something, given course of antibiotics and told go back in two days. I returned two days later and was told allow antibiotics to work and they’ll contact me.
Now nearly 1 week later I’m in excruciating pain with a tennis ball size lump behind a 2 year old Gallbladder drain, the area is hard to touch and hot, it’s obviously infected and antibiotics ran out two days ago.
I would love to go in again, but will anything be done, never felt so desperate.
