I was shocked and it was even like she begrudged treating me like I thought going private was demeaning her or some ****. She had a very bad attitude when all I wanted was some reassurance.
All these symptoms are warning signs to look out for after surgery and to just get a student in for 10 minutes and show me the door was not only embaressing but left me even more worried.
Just got off the phone to NHS direct or whoever they are and they told me to buy some deep thrombosis sock thingys which are used to reduce the risk of clots which is exactly what I was fearing.
This nurse didn't think of that nor offer me any of those precautionary garments.
What a state of a health system, last time I was n they couldn't even provide me with a pillow for the night.
