..Daniel, however you feel this morning, even if you feel much better..at the very least, either go to your GP or back to A&E because of how you felt last night..those symptoms were very real and even if they have gone now, you just need them checked out for reassurance, ok....

[joeysteele]

Daniel,I hope you are feeling better this morning, I wanted to check right off on here to see if you had updated.

I would though like to join with Ammi as to her post, no matter how you feel, still get yourself checked out today again.
Take care Daniel,all best wishes.

[the truth]

whats up danny boy? how you feeling now?

[Vanessa]

Please let us know you're ok, Daniel.

[Livia]

Lots of people thinking about you Daniel... hope you're okay.

Thanks for all the well wishes,Well spoke to the private clinic where I had it done who reffered me to the doctors who seems to think everythings fine, no blood tests were taken even though I asked and stressed how ill I had been. He even said "well yesterday was a hot day perhaps you were over heated" wtf lol yesterday was freezing.

Not feeling very reassured at all.

He also said "don't worry its not a blood clot otherwise you would be coughing blood", erm yes that's like very late on surely they should check for early signs and not leave it till it gets that point.

Anyway still feeling dodgy but just have to trust what they have said **** all else I can do. Do we really pay taxes for this service?

Just have to wait it out and hopefully it just passes not a nice feeling

Have to say, I'm more relieved for myself after my post in other thread, but whatever. I'm mildly happy for you as well.

That does sound like an odd thing to say.

Kind of like saying "It's not cancer because you're not dead yet".

I know, honestly ive had better advice from this forum. Cant get over the it was a hot day comment that's something I have to laugh about.

[Livia]

Good to see you... although sorry you didn't get the answers you deserve. But you'll call an ambulance should you feel like that again, right?

[Vanessa]

If you're not felling better later you should call an ambulance.

if you continue with this warmth and empathy I may have to withdraw my rejection of your dinner date request

As much as I hate to agree with you sheriff... you're right. There. You won't hear that from me often LOL...

It says in the OP that he only had the operation two weeks ago. Dan... take some time and try to relax. I know that's easy to say...

I'm sure I've mentioned before on here - we once took our daughter to an out of hours doctor and he Googled. Right there in front of us, screen facing us, not even trying to hide it he Googled her symptoms and was clicking links like "maybe it's this... Or this". I was actually gobsmacked. I'm utterly convinced that 90% of NHS doctors are essentially just winging it! That sort of dismissive "hot day" comment seems pretty typical of my experiences lately.

If you do find yourself at he hospital again, seriously, just badger them until you get to see someone a bit more senior. That doesn't mean a doctor - the rank and file doctors are useless - most experienced high grade nurses are better than a "foot soldier" hospital doctor.

Don't let up until you're satisfied that you've seen someone who KNOWS what they are talking about and isn't just taking shots in the dark.

sounds like a reaction to the anasthetic or a panic attack due to worry. Dr Cherie in the house. Glad you are still with us, as for the nurse, did you say she was a student nurse if so she gave you incorrect information, you should report it not to get her into trouble but so she learns from her mistakes, and in future ask for a second opinion there and then as you have a right to be checked over by a qualified member of staff if you are worried.

[Cherie]

ooops I note it is 2 weeks since the op, so not a reaction then!

Exactly lol everything was fine, nothing wrong with the anaesthetic, actually felt quite nice. The thing is its not a panic attack because I literally wasn't worrying I was pretty happy how I was recovering to be honest then there was and still is actual physical pain which corresponds with every warning sign these supposed doctors tell post op patients to look out for and "contact immediately" if experiencing any of them.

Im just sick of talking about it now, they made me feel like a right twat for being sensible and following advice regarding my health.

If it continues im seriously just going to fork out for a private appointment its just money at the end of the day. Hearing all these stories from people its shocking how doctors miss out on things.

I am not settling for having heatstroke in March.

It's frightening really. You always hear stories about how doctors continually turn people away saying they're overreacting or it's nothing to worry about and before they know it, it turns out they have a tumour the size of a grapefruit or something.

If you believe something is wrong then don't let it lie, you know your own body better than anyone.

Funnily enough, my sister who I mentioned in another current thread (here) who DID have a tumor bigger than a grapefruit (a benign one, but still) was sent away from her GP several times without so much as an abdominal examination, with "diagnoses" such as IBS and even constipation.
