"1st Appointment after suffering TENs"

About: Leicester Royal Infirmary / Dermatology

(as the patient),

I was discharged in March 2021 after suffering with Tens, I was seen by dermatology 6 months after discharge. since returning home I have struggled with growth of my nails and I suffered severe skin scarring. I also had trama hairloss, which the consultant did not even acknowledge but its a massive issue for me getting back to normal. I also explained how my nails that have not grown are painful. The consultant was not sympathetic and shown no empathy. This syndrome has affected me mentally, also scarring from head to toe is hard to deal with. This was 1st appointment after discharge and it would have been nice to have been seen by someone who was responsible for care whilst in hospital.
