They are being slow. The last episode that saw me admitted, the Dr stressed I'd be followed up in three weeks at the specialist unit in another hospital. I checked with them, they knew nothing and bounced it back. Chased the first lot, and the Consultants Secretary failed to even read the notes properly, stating no time on the follow up and didn't even know I'd been in twice in 14 days !. Trouble is, you cannot get round the Secretary to find out whats really happening, and the last person they talk to these days is the patient. If I phoned 111 I'd be told to seek urgent help, makes you laugh. Been looking into "pulse pressure" the difference between systolic and diastolic, a difference of 60 is regarded as serious, and theres me with 80 to 100. Not good.</p></blockquote><p></p>
