Immediate urgent private medical home help required in Vera Playa. My husband and myself need urgent medical after care. I have been discharged from hospital today after full blown sepsis and high fever (deliberately still have catheter in from hospital!) Leg needs dressing. Husband has multiple health issues and very frail. Both in our seventies.

Your private health cover will provide your needs after discharge. I am surprised it wasn't arranged before you left hospital.

Thank you for that pet but as resident pensioners we have not needed or got private healthcare. Thankfully everything now sorted. Grateful thanks for your comments.

Glad you got sorted. A nurse should have been arranged from your surgery. To visit you at home. 

Get well soon.

Thank you so much for your good wishes. Dr wouldn't come out, wanted me to go to surgery initially but husband explained I couldn't walk due to sepsis!! Think nurse coming out tomorrow from clinic in Vera.
