Visited Gosport war memorial on 13th feburary with swollen right foot, was asked if it hurt straight away, which it didn't, so was told by nurse it was not broken. They told me to tell my doctor it was not broken so they didn't send me back to them. I then went to see my own doctor at brockhurst medical centre, on Tuesday 17th. The doctor said I had nail fungal, & gave me antibiotics. One week later I went back to brockhurst to see another doctor, they asked if it was better, I said no different so they gave me more antibiotics. A week later I saw another doctor who gave me more antibiotics, said come back Monday if not better. They said it might be dvt, so made me appointment with qa hospital. the appointment was 9th april but got cancelation on 31st march. I had a ultra sound scan and was told it didn't show much and needed an xray which could have been done at war memorial, on 13th feburary. So not only did it cost £4.20 on car park, and an ultra scan I need not of had, just an xray. I have now wasted at least 3 weeks of work upaid when I coul have been wearing healing with the boot the qa have just given me.
