Okay, on 28 July I broke my 5th metatarsal on my left foot. Had my leg in cast up to my knee for 4 weeks and told to come back in 4 weeks for another xray to see if it had healed, if it hadn't, they said they would put another cast on. When I went back after 4 weeks, they took my cast off and discharged me without an xray, when I questioned about the xray they said it was more dangerous to xray me! Still after 3 weeks in pain I went to the doctors' and requested my own xray and it was still broken! Not due to see same consultant till Wednesday. I've got a new lump on my foot and it is still giving me alot of pain. It hasn't healed properly and can hardly walk and can't drive at all. Surely this is wrong. My life's been put on hold and I feel like I'm going mad sometimes. Shall I take action against the NHS?
