Long winded but responses would be greatly appreciated.

This is a bit personal so a bit cringe but I need to talk and tibb are like family (****ing love some and ****ing hate some) but all give good opinons.

As you know I went for an operation 2 weeks back and everything was fine, 2 days ago I became light headed and feverish my clinic advised me to go to A&E.

I didn't go because I felt I was over reacting which is our usual British attitude.

Today I woke up with severe pins and needles in my limbs and pain in my calf but thought just get on with it. Went to the shops and almost passed out in Tescos rushed home white as a sheet and just collapsed to the bed head and legs pulsing like mad.

I finally gave in and booked a taxi for a&e, when I got there I told all my symptoms and told the doctor I have had recent surgery as obviously there is a risk of blood clotting when annasthetic is used.

She sent in a student nurse (GREAT) who took 5 attempts to draw blood from my fingers for some sugar test and jokingly said my hands were freezing which filled me with confidence. Blood pressure done which had gone from 93 to 100 which I assume is normal.

The supposed real nurse comes back wont acknowledge anything I told her about nausa, fainting pain in limbs and said we are the NHS you had this done privately I cant help you and showed me the door.

Got home, fainted again but am now screwed because ive already been there, what have my taxes been paying for? It was the NHS who told me to go private because of waiting lists aswell.

So anyway here I am feeling like a dick and worrying that im gonna end up in the tibb remembrance thread in the sky.

Opinions?
