I attended casualty on Friday 20th July at 430pm due to a bleed at 56 years old. After waiting for 4hrs in casualty I was sent up to gynaecology f1 for tests for which I waited a further 3 1/2hours. To be told I needed to be referred and to wait back outside whilst they did th referral. I was then told the couldnt use the computer to do the referral so I would need to go to my doctors on Monday to get him to refer me as I needed to be seen within two weeks.
Over the past 20 plus years I have been to casualty twice (this is over a three month period) and I have not received the care needed. I cannot believe how much the NHS has changed and fear for myself and my family in later years.
