Howl! Just managed to escape the clutches of the NHS, admission through AE for treatment of an abscess.Two nights in three days
They couldn't decide whether it was a soft tissue problem or an abscess. Simply because I wasn't showing any inflammation in my blood tests or temperatures.
Thought it was a soft tissue problem, nearly discharged me was an appointment for an MRI scan in 3 to 4 weeks.Fortunately I was rescued by a junior house officer and a surgical registrar, who decided to do a needle biopsy on the ward and then remove the abscess on the spot - instead of sending me up for a general anaesthetic and operation.
OW ow ow! I'm also going to be out of contact for a few days... as unchanging broadband supplier...
