"literally nothing"

About: Hillingdon Hospital

(as the patient),

What I liked

literally nothing

What could be improved

I would prefer if you could read and investigate why I wasn't given treatment.

Anything else?

I was taken to Hillingdon Hospital with heart palpitation. The doctor diagnosed me correctly 'Hyponatremia'. Because of hyponatmeria I had high blood pressure, heart palpitation. Hyponatremia is when sodium level in the blood below normal. It is quite easy to cure it, sodium injections had to be given. But I didn't receive any treatment. After 3 days literally dying on the hospital cot they kicked me out from hospital without giving any treatment. Thanks to my friends, they took me to the airport, God knows how I managed to get to my home country (Azerbaijan) when I have been cured within a week.

For me very hard to understand why I wasn't given any treartment. For me it is really stupid when doctor who knows that the pt. has hyponatremia says 'simply relax'. I believe that there are good doctors in your hospital but those I faced weren't. Now I have stress as a result of spending 3 days in your hospital.
