"I developed a small cyst on my chest last year, 2 weeks ago it started rapidly growing and feeling unconfortable. I tried to make an appointment to see a doctor but as i work late i was reffered to the cavendish court practice on 21st Jan for a late appointment. I was given a weeks course of antibiotics and told to see my regular gp the following week, who would advise about having it removed. I attended an appointment with a Dr on the 28th only to be told there was nothing the nhs could do as they no longer remove cysts but he would push for me to be seen by a specialist but it was unlikely.

A week later and my cyst has grown even more and become horribly infected. As i was in constant pain, I attend the surgery again today (4th Feb) to see another Dr who was very nice, she told me as its so far infected i could be seen today to have it removed at DRI ESAC unit. Ive now been informed by a specialist at the ESAC that it is too far infected for local anesthetic and now needs to be done under general anesthetic and that they perform routine cyst removals everyday. Why was i told i couldnt have it removed last week before it was infected??? Why was i told the nhs doesnt remove cysts by the Dr?? I now have to go to DRI again tomorrow for surgery to have it removed, I now have to have a big open wound on my chest for several weeks as its unsafe to close the wound after surgery for risk of repeat infections!! I will now have to see a nurse everyday to have the open wound packed and dressed everyday till its healed!! To make matters worse, My partner and I are expecting a new baby on the 8th Feb and i now wont be able to properley hold my new son or help my wife after the birth. Rest assured i will be seeking legal advise on this matter!!
Mr J. Taylor"
