The system is unfairly loaded.

Doctors can gang up on you.

They make assumptions cause they can't be bothered.

It seems even nurses can't get through the obsticals.

They jump through hoops the same as us it seems.

The doctor at the top has the junior under his thumb. That was very evident when I went to A &E 3 times this week and they tried to accuses me of being mentally ill.

I been getting sleep proalisses and my brains been coming out the back of my head.

3 times A &E have dumpted me.

Not able to walk. Because of neuropathy the hospital staff and ambulance crew whisper behind closed doors. When the manager comes into the department and tells staff not to treat you.

Because your barking!

I was told by one of my GP's that I could get intravenous antibiotics by getting my private doctor to send a fax.

When staff at the hospital refuse and don't even believe. I am physically ill.

When I turn up with high blood pressure and heart problems they say it's because your stressed or psychosomatic.

When my limbs go into spasam because of sleep paralysis.

My blood pressure and heart are OK.

They still try to say its psychosomatic.

My GP says I need to see a psychiatrist because I have been phoning 111 too often.

When my brain is bursting out and I have neuropathy all over.

111 keep asking u silly questions.

Out of hours doctors can't refer you anywhere.

I tried to go private to get to places.

But the GP messes it up.

And does not refer you back.

On the NHS.

Instead to another doctor who though he might be a neurologist does not specialise in your part of neurology.

Then they have the nerve to slip in your mentally unstable.

Is it any wounded that I am not.

For the last 3 evenings I have had some odd headaches and I have fitted.

I had the first on Sunday I had a slite headache. The hospital were trying to get me out. I couldn't walk.

I landed down.

Next I knew I couldn't get up.

I couldn't really move.

My respiration went very fast then slowed down to nothing.

The nurses shouted.

You are not going to stay by doing this.

No words of comfort.

They told me to sit up when I started to choke. Which I could not sit.

They eventually got the idea I was not going to sit up and pulled me up into the sitting position.

Still telling me I was making it up.

They put the bars up and left me for awhile. The patient next to me was taken away.

I was taken to another part of the ward. The nurses took me to see the consultant on the bed he examined my legs. Said I could go.

I said I couldn't walk.

The police would be called.

When they didn't come the security guards put me outside.

I eventually walked very painfully to a taxi and went to out of hours.

The hospital manager and the A & E

Consultant are behind it where do you go?

It's not the first time it's happened.

I had meningitis they still didn't recognise I was ill.

My father had the same symptoms and he died within 10 days.

With this reached Lyme they don't seem to know.

There is nowhere to complain.

One of the out of hours doctors said

Your chronically sick you have to have copping mechanisms.

Does that including medical staff abusing u when you are not well.

When really you need to be in hospital.

If this is not abuse what is?
