"All in your head" turns out to be a stroke!
I was discharged from the casualty unit yesterday afternoon after being taken to hospital by ambulance for fainting at work. This was the second time i fainted in less that 24 hours. I received such poor service from this hospital. They wouldn't admit me to hospital for further testing, they only conducted a urine test and blood tests for iron levels. I waited more than an hour for anyone to update me on what was happening. Eventually when i received feedback from the doctor on duty, i was told that its all in my head and that the blood tests and urine tests were fine. This does not explain the fainting episodes at all and the doc on duty did not even seem a little concerned as too why i fainted in the first place. Much too my despair, i'm back in hospital - luckily a different one. I was admitted due to suffering from a stroke!!! My husband noticed my face hanging late last night and rushed me straight to hospital. I do not recommend anyone make use of the casualty unit at Linmed Hospital.
