"Misdiagnosis"

About: Wagga Wagga Base Hospital

(as the patient),

Several months ago, I went for the first time to emergency. Several more trips to emergency later, I was admitted for the final time a few months ago in extreme pain and unable to eat or drink, despite CT showing an apple core lesion, I feel nothing is done yet again.

Numerous Drs and tests and it's apparently a mental health issue. After numerous complaints from my family and plans to release myself, so-called specialist decided to call in a favour from a Dr at another hospital. Stage 3 bowel cancer and fully obstructed according to Drs in Sydney, I believe it was a simple diagnosis easy to find.

I moved interstate after this to have the chemo, I feel there is no way would I allow that hospital to treat any human being. Several months later still waiting to find out the results of the investigation of the 20 or so Drs involved in the 11-week process. I feel they should be ashamed.
