Hi Everyone, it is very cold and icy here in Macclesfield, so I tried to cancel an x-ray appt, as I am wobbly on my legs and was afraid of falling over. Well, as I had cancelled it once due to flu, they said I couldn't cancel it a second time, so hubbie and I went out, what happened? I fell over, I hit my head and ended going to casualty by ambulance, was there for 5 hours, had a head x-ray, but, believe it or not, they wouldn't do the hand x-ray that was planned.

So annoyed with Macclesfield hospital, no flexibility at all, luckily I am ok, Malcolm has to keep any eye on me, but I feel fine, they shouldn't have forced me to go out in the first place. I will be complaining to the PALS at the hospital tomorrow.

Whinge over, thanks for reading it love Jaspercatxxx :x :x :x :x

    Sorry to hear you've had such an awful day. :? Its icy in Norfolk too.

    Hope you feel a bit better soon and managet to get the x-ray you need. Strange you can only cancel once, I could understand if you just didn't turn up. Oh well... thats life, I suppose. Sue.

    Hi Jaspercat
    Poor old you!!!
    Trying to do the right thing backfires sometimes doen't it?
    I do hope you are ok and not suffering any ill-effects from the bump and that you get a new apt ASAP :!:
    Take care
