Wife was taken in by ambulance with Altered sensation and back injury. A and E head nurse came over and said I need you to get in the chair as we don't have space to her and even the drivers said to her she can not sit up as too painful so nurse came back with codine, valium, oramorph and ibruprofen. Now you can get in chair to go off to M.I. My wife doesn't want to make a fuss as she is a nurse so is sitting in a random waiting room in tears and the same pain we came for. They should have sent hash cakes instead of an ambulance and I could of driven her. Oh but no one has checked her spine yet so I guess we don't want to do further damage.
