The appointment was for 10am and I was asked to arrive 15 minutes before. I checked in at 9.40 and I was called in at 8 minutes to 10. I was seen by a nurse and a radiologist. He explained what he had found and said I should make an appointment with my GP for more details. I was back in my car by 10.10.
I got home at 12 and at 12.30 my GP Practice rang to make me a GP follow up appointment. I couldnt believe it!
I first saw my GP about this problem less than a month ago and an xray was arranged for me within two weeks. The ultrasound followed that.
I know I wasnt in A and E but I couldnt fault my treatment today.

This crisis talk is whipped up by Corbyn and his crew followed up by Corbyn supporters. Like Canny and his type. I do notice no one puts up about population explosion, which has been the cause of this pressure on the NHS and all sorts of government facilities, schools and such. But that don't play well does it. Crisis ye right.

You seem to have an NHS season ticket.
Very convenient when a story is needed to fit an agenda.
I see that King's Lynn hospital has been operating at "dangerous levels of bed occupancy" in the last couple of weeks. Hardly inner city, is it ?

Season ticket? You must have the wrong person. I had a torn meniscus last year and this shoulder just now and thats it. My elderly mother though had many problems last year and trips to hospital so maybe thats confusing you.
I actually said “major hospital” not “inner city” and its the N and N Ive been to which is Norfolks major hospital. I dont know why you doubt every word I ever say. Not that it really bothers me but it does make me wonder why you feel the need to do this? Would you like to see a photo of my car park ticket from this morning?

I was referring to the idiotic OP quote, that NHS issues are an inner city issue - with a couple of simple quotes from countryside hospitals his stupidity was highlighted. And I included a stroke victim left for 11 hours on a trolley in a hospital (Banbury) not renowned for immigrants...
You usually speak to 'a friend' or have 'several friends' who amazingly corroborate your stance every single time. No wonder many on here must roll their eyes every time they hear it.

You always trot out this old thing about “friends”. As Ive told you before, I’m a middle aged person with adult children and weve lived in this area now for 30+ years and we run a business so isnt it normal for me to know a lot of people and have a lot of friends? I have friends from when my kids went to school, I have former work colleagues, I have friends from various organisations and groups Ive been involved with and so on. Dont you have any friends? Maybe thats why you doubt just about everything that other people say?
