I have been rushed to hospital 4 times. I have stopped being able to walk, one day I didn’t have energy in my legs or in my arms. I called an ambulance I went to hospital, I get to Augusta hospital and I recall I hear them say, They're well known to us. They say they call the gp and the gp comes and they start to measure blood pressure. I get into the ward I tell them, I keep repeating and begging them to check my b12. They send me to get a blood test but it does ferrin not b12.
For 5 years they haven’t done my B12 injections, I was diagnosed as genetically not being able to absorb b12. I know my b12 is low. I beg them in hospital, I am an older person, I feel I am too old to humiliate myself. I feel they are not listening to me, they seem to dismiss and I had a nurse say to me, I recall, you are not sick, go home we need the beds.
I suspect a terrible blunder has been done. I think I’m going to die. I don’t have energy. I don’t have anyone. I believe I should be in hospital, I don’t have anyone who can speak for me I feel if I go to Augusta Hospital they will send me home again.
