I had to call NHS 24 due to severe pelvic pain. They sent an ambulance out to get me to the hospital.
One of the female paramedics was quite rude to me. I went about my house trying to pack a few necessities in case I was kept back in the hospital, she kept saying how I seemed to be okay cause I could mobilise round the house.
When I got into the ambulance I requested to lie down and she said she queried my needing to lie down? Because I seemed to move round the house without needing help.
I was eventually diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy the next morning. I was appalled at being treated like this even though I was in so much pain.
"Upset by attitude of paramedic"
