Felt breathless back in November 2020.
Went to GP who sent me to North Devon District Hospital, where a CT scan discovered a blood clot on a lung. Spent 2 days in the hospital with excellent care.
Was given blood thinners, and on a blood test a high PSA level was discovered.
As Covid happened, 7 months later I was referred to NDDH again, where after scans a possible cancer on a lung was discovered and a possible prostate problem was discovered.
At present I am awaiting further developments in my diagnosis.
The services I have received at NDDH have been first class, with very efficient and competent doctors and nurses.
We are very lucky here in North Devon to have such a wonderful hospital full of very caring staff, and I cannot speak highly enough of them all.
Thank you NHS.
