More medical matters

Nigel had the scan a month after he had finished a course of steroids but had to wait until the end of July to see his consultant as she was on holiday. Unfortunately he started with another infection at the beginning of July and had to go into hospital again. Once again it was at a weekend so I rang up the duty doctor and after giving her a brief low down on his troubles she advised us to go to casualty as the hospital had all his notes. After 3 hours in casualty where they gave him a good going over and did an x-ray they decided to admit him. The Monday was the 4th of July and a public holiday so he didn't see his hospital consultant until the Tuesday and he then prescribed a new antibiotic for him and he was allowed home on the Thursday. He was not so ill this time and was pretty bored in the hospital so was glad to be able to get home.
