I had bloods taken in early pregnancy unit for Hcg levels the waiting for results is 1 hour. However I was told that it could take 12 hours for a doctor to call me with blood results ?
When I said I’d attended 2 days before and waited for results to be printed for me I was told that it wasn’t possible even thought just 2 days ago that happened. I had bloods taken at 10 in the morning and I rang at 1 pm told doctors not reviewed yet then again at 5 pm still not been reviewed. The nurse was extremely rude saying I need to just wait and if I was having a miscarriage nothing could be done. When I said I would go to hospital and sit and wait to get results she told me that I could if I wanted to but she would not rush and I was being awkward. I explained that I was concerned for my unborn baby due to bleeding and she told me well I can’t do anything for you. I now feel so let down that a 1 hour blood result test could take 12 hours to even get a call with results what is already a stressful situation in now make me feel so upset and let down by the staff. The other appointments at GAU have been fantastic and this one nurse who is very rude is making me dread calling or attending appointments there at Oldham hospital.
