luke-o 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 Two weeks ago, i was having pains in my lower right side and around my shoulder. The only way to describe the pain is that it felt like it was pulling down on my ribs and through that I was struggeling to breathe. I went to see my GP and they did some tests and came to the conclusion that I had burst some of the skin surrounding my right lung, nothing major, apparently it happens all the time to people of my frame and height. It heals itself over, no biggie. But they told me to go to the doctors to get an xray to get it confirmed. I went to the doctors (and guess what he told me) and had my X-Ray. And was told that my results would be at my GP in two weeks (TWO WEEKS?!). Now since then, ive moved back in with my parents in another town. So, i phone them up today and the nurse tells me that my X-Ray results say only "Abnormal, See Me Urgently". So im booked in for Friday (the only time I can get to go and see them). I havent had the pains for a while now, should I be worried? Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried, she just told me that I needed to go in to see the doctor. Im gonna ring again tommorow to see if I can speak to my doctor. But ill most likely get "We need to speak face to face." So are we under the impression here that I'm going to die? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luke-o 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2007 Right, sorry its taken so long, Ive been down in Portsmouth since Thursday getting drunk EVERY night and having around 10 hours sleep over the last 4 days and Ive now been able to get to a PC. Went to the doctors on and the doctor who reviewed my Xray wasn't there so I met with one of his collegues. She couldn't find my X-rays at first, which didn't help my opionion of there "abilities". She finds the results and tells me whats what. *NOTE* - 8 months ago, my now ex girlfriend found a lump on my right nut which we thought was cancer. Turns out it wasn't but the doctor who reviewed my nut thought it was some sort of tumour that would have to be removed. I had an ultrasound to see whats wrong and that doctor told me that nothing was wrong and it was just scar tissue from an operation i had on my nuts when i was about 6. Now, this lady doctor tells me that my lungs are FINE and theres nothing wrong. Doctor fuck up (the same one that looked at my nuts) didn't have my X-rays, he looked at my ULTRASOUND OF MY NUTS saw what he thought was a problem again and told me to come see him. So, in summation, Doctor fuck up looked at an ULTRASOUND OF MY NUT and thought it was an X-RAY OF MY LUNG. So I'm fine and there was nothing to worry about/go down to Portsmouth for. Sufice to say, I'm moving to a new doctor. This is quite easily the single biggest fuck up in medical history. I'm not sure how a TRAINED DOCTOR could look at an ultrasound of a testical and think "this lung looks bad". On the plus side, I've had some good nights out. Alls well that ends well i guess.

Mik 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2007 Single biggest fuckup in medical history? Are you retarded? Do you know how many people have been killed by doctors? How many people have gone in to get their tonsils removed and came out missing a kidney? Scale it back a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
