Asked to attend 10.45 having cancer and severe fibromyalgia,but that wwasn't the problem i was having terrible pain in right rib cage on a score of 1_10 this was a ten.also pain around soft tissue and still am as i right this.When we got there tots were in poorly they were taken first,this i found fair enough,but then a 20 , year old went in he came out laughing stating he had water infection then another man went in with a foreign name that the staff couldn't even pronounce.After 40 mins later we were told the people who were classed as more poorly than me were getting priority.how long did i have to wait?yes the tots first but not water infections and minor ailments.if i had not left at11.25 pm which was 45 minitues, i agree we were told to travel 14miles had still not spoke to doctor or nurse i may still have been there this morning.yes i am still in pain but trying to control it with prescribed medication Hope i never need cohc again at west cumberland
