Hello Marsh74 and thanks for your post,

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I do hope that you have managed to speak to someone today and you have more of an understanding of what it all means.

Try if you can to take one step at a time. The doctors may need to do further tests before they know more, which I know can be hard.

If you would like to talk any of this through with one of the helpline nurses then you are welcome to give us a call. The number to ring is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm.

All the best,

Catherine

Hello, and thank you for coming back to us.

I am sorry that you feel left like this. I hope you hear from someone soon.

At the moment, you will be waiting for a referral to the right team to be able to see you and investigate further to find out exactly what may be going on.

A plan of care would then be put in place when they know more.

It might help to see if you can get a GP appointment and talk through what has happened so far.

I would expect that you will get a letter that your doctor should get a copy of, about what happened in A and E. Also, a phone call or text message should come through from the hospital about an appointment to go back.

I am sorry we are unable to be more specific about what is happening and when for you. But, if you feel you want to talk things through with the nurses on the helpline then call 0808 800 4040. Lines are open mon-fri, 9-5.

Sarah.
