We rely on the NHS for my son's problems and specific needs and other than one complaint that we had to raise with one department (thankfully, occupational therapy as opposed to a function that could have caused serious problems) it's been fine.
Touch wood.

I've got a growth in my left lung and somehow or other it produced a lot of liquid that was pressing against my heart - cue breathlessness and pain.
At first they though I'd had a heart attack but fortunately did a scan thing which is fortunate because the remedy for heart attack may have killed me - what larks
My NHS experience has been brilliant, there's a lot of very hard working and skilled people working there - the woman who did my scan came in on her day off and very quickly too.
...the thread started with JK saying his arm hurt a bit, I chip in with lungs and fluid - what next? This could degenerate into Monty Pythons 4 Yorkshireman sketch

Last Saturday morning I wound up in A&E, they kept me in and Wednesday I had over a pint of fluid removed from my lung
