NHS cancer diagnosis

Hi all my mam has had cancer shown up on scans.

She was taken toa district hospital then to another hospital cos she had fluid that needed drained.

She has been passed from pillow to post .

Her cancer is incurable but now she has waited so long her drain has an incurable infection so she can't have kimotherapy.

And she is sluring her words since she has been in hospital for 3 wks.

I'm starting to question the NHS and thinking of a gp referral to go private.

Has anyone had experience of this or am I clutching at straws x

 

  • I agree with you.go private if you can.NHS messed up with my diagnosis and neglected my symptoms.Now the cancer spread in to my brain.i don't know if the radiotherapy will help me or what treatment i am only 43 and i know they can't be bothered once you are,advanced stage.

    I have requested my brain scans pictures and i am going to private.i don't deserve to die.and nobody does.
