I fainted in my doctor's surgery and the ECG was worrying combined with a severe shin pain so they called an ambulance. The paramedics were very thorough and put me at ease which Irelly appreciated.They ascertained my headache was not caused by falling. My arrival at reception was very efficient, which again was very reassuring, and I was told about all the tests I was going to have. Everybody dealing with me was so friendly and really helped me to be less worried. The treatment I received was excellent for which I am very grateful and I was lucky to be allowed to go home with the recommendation to see my GP re another blood test and to treat my shin pain which I have done today. Sincere thanks to all concerned.
