Had my first meeting my gynae today since i got my endo diagnosis. I got my diagnosis through my emergency op as i had severely bad symptoms. Since my op i have got worse and i've been told theyre not even gunna consider doing anything other than fobbing me off with painkillers that arent working for at least another 4 months!!!

You should be able to complain through a PALS (patient advice and liaison service) within your hospital. They are there to represent your interests. That's completely unacceptable! Hugs xxxx

I dont know where to complain,i get seen at one hospital but it doesn't have an a&e so when i had to go to a&e and have my op it was in a completely different hospital? x

Then I would lodge the complaint with both. Clearly the issue here is a communication breakdown between the two hospitals, which is unacceptable. I know the last thing you probably feel like doing is going through all the hassle. Do you have anyone who can help you? X
