As a relative of someone who attended A&E for severe stomach pain and nausea, I was appalled by the rudeness of the triage nurse and disappointed at the lack of empathy/concern there was considering my family members recent history of leukaemia. I would expect in future for any case of someone with history of having chemotherapy to be taken more seriously!
