NHS Refusal to help

I visited my local hospital Warwick this week via the ambulatory ward initially, I wasn’t asked for a history or examined by any doctor, he came to see me brandishing the list I gave him listing my conditions and medications, he said your already under two specialists, I can’t help you he said, your bloods are fine and you need to see your rheumatologist. I had to demand IV anti sickness and painkiller, like I wasn’t worthy !

I had an ultrasound the following day which had shown my spleen on the large side of normal, what does that mean ?

That evening I feeling so unwell I went through a&e, seen by a registrar, he said there’s nothing we can do for you, your case is to complex. I asked to see his consultant, he replied he doesn’t see patients. I was beaten, I just asked for the way out, I’ve never been treated so badly in a hospital setting. If I was a mechanic I would give your car back to you if it was still broken would I ? 😡.

I’ve emailed the CEO of the hospital and the trust, he has replied and said he will investigate and reply further when he’s done so.

Absolutely shocking , it’s just as if they don’t want to know, everything down to covid. I hope you get some help soon 👍

So which two consultants are you under, and who requested the ultrasound? I would have thought that the ultrasound result would have been discussed with you, or at least a copy of the report sent to you. I have been under five different consultants for the repercussions of my vasculitis, with each seeing or phoning me every few months to check on me. Inbetween times my rheumatologist who oversees all my treatment, has specialist nurses I can ring if I have any problems. They consult her, and come back to me with an answer. I would have hoped that you would have such help and advice available.
