"You will be sent home with Paracetamol"

About: Colchester General Hospital / Accident and emergency

I was recently diagnosed with an ovarian cyst at another hospital. I arrived with severe abdominal pain. I understand the waiting time but I was treated like a baby with tummy ache and given two paracetamol tablets, sent home, alone, in pain, in the middle of the night.
