I was referred by my gp (x2) days into a large swelling/lump appearing on my face, jaw & neck.
It was not too sore but was very uncomfortable and quite worrying. It appeared very quickly and was getting larger.
I was initially being cared for in ward 11c and latterly ward 1c. I received iv antibiotics and fluids.
My initial diagnosis & subsequent treatment was outstanding! The nurses and auxiliary staff were brilliant - the level of care and attention that I received was superb, thanks.
The doctors that I saw helped me to understand the problem, explained my treatment plan & kept me updated. The hospital rooms I was assigned to were clean and warm (perhaps a wee bit too warm on ward 11c).
