My wife had a CT scan of the brain in January 2017 following a fall. They told her that nothing was found. This was not true. There was a slight bleed, which doctors were not worried about, but they kept her in the dark in case she got worried.

In July 2017 she was operated on a subdural haematoma after being an inpatient at a private hospital where she was on aspirin as well as anticoagulant injections.

B for bad NHS - the patient has a right to know.
