About: Stoke Mandeville Hospital

Anything else?

i was screaming in pain so daughter called out of hrs dr after 4 calls back to us they said call ambulance, so we did and they was not happy so after another 3 call backs to us they sent one, they couldnt get find vein, they gave me entonox made me walk to ambulance when i am disiabled with walking difficulties, then the ambulance guy stood on tube of entonox so i couldnt take to much, ( my daughter was watching him) i was left in middle of room coz there was no room, they gave me entonox again and a pill, i had a blood test done and urine test and after 5hrs screaming was told there is no infection and to go home and take a pain killer, i went home still screaming my head off, called my dr;s surgery told them what happened so dr came out and he examined me and knew what was wrong and sorted me out, it took him 5 mins, he said the pain from what was wrong is extremely painful, shame dr at hospital could not have found out that quick, i will not ever trust A & E again
