Original Feedback for NHS 111:

Misinformation and confusion

I called 111 as I was having significant problems with my vision. The first call was pretty positive, they did an assessment and referred me to PES which is the patient eyecare services. They booked me in at an opticians for an OCT however when I got there I found it was a small branch that didn't have the right equipment to conduct the test. I had new symptoms a few days later and called 111 again. I mentioned my previous episode and there was a suspicion of stroke, but a medic didn't call me back for two hours which doesn't feel prompt enough. I was advised to go to A&E and that 111 would send my records to them, however when I got there they didn't have my notes which caused me a lot of confusion. I called 111 while I was sat in A&E at the James Paget and was told they'd misinformed me, my records couldn't be sent. They did apologise but the whole experience was very muddled.
