I Want This Now

I've just seen Roger with his wife.

Roger was admitted to hospital fitting a few days ago. Last night he discharged himself from hospital against medical advice.

While in hospital he had an MRI (scan) of his brain, and an EEG (this checks for brainwave activity and susceptibility to fitting). Because he self discharged he has no paperwork, no follow up planned, and no knowledge of what is wrong or what needs to be done.

Roger couldn't remember the name of the consultant looking after him, or the name of the ward he was on.

But Roger and his wife wanted to know the results of his tests now as they were worried about him having further fits.

I've said I'll see what I can do. Even once I've found out which ward he was on, there's a good chance the notes will have already gone. I explained this to Roger and his wife, and that if he hadn't self discharged he wouldn't be in this situation now. But they still wanted me to sort it as soon as possible.

They did say please.
