After a hysteroscopy and biopsy I was told I needed to have a hysterectomy quickly. I was given the phone number of the clinical nurse support section and told I could ring them anytime (within working hours of course). As I live 40 miles from the hospital this was a great blessing. As I do suffer from anxiety this was a lifeline for me.
Emma and Vicki who answer the phone have been so kind, understanding and patient with me. They know who I am as soon as I ring and have been so encouraging, supportive and informative all through. They feel like best friends who I could confide in. They assure me I will be able to speak to them over the next few years while the consultant monitors me.
I am so grateful to them and there department for the reassurance and support they give me.
