"Not very helpful hospital stay"

I was admitted to Forth Valley Hospital  for a couple of days with violent headaches and sickness. I kept telling nurses and doctors I thought I had a urine infection.

I felt that all they were interested in was the cause of the headache and told me to see GP when I got home about urine infection. They refused to test for UTI. I suffered same symptoms on and off for 2 months until UTI was treated.

Also unsuccessful attempt at lumbar puncture and being asked to sit up straight after caused a lot of discomfort. A different doctor next day was quick painless and successful.

However if they had listened to my symptoms and tested for UTI scan and lumbar puncture would not have been necessary
