On Friday last, I visited my GP surgery ay about 1000am, explained symptoms to Dr, Who suspected a possible sub arachanoid haemorrhage, and 'phoned for an ambulance, to take me to RCH Treliske for tests. @ 1530 the required ambulanced arrived, I finally left the hospital @ 2130, after being told that my tests were clear. I did not know until Saturday morning just how serious, and therefore urgent treatment was, when I looked it up on the 'net. I do feel that the delay was appalling for such a serious situation, an illness from which recovery is described as RARE, with those who do, often being left brain damaged. John
