My fathers doctors have really screwed up by totally missing the fact he has advanced pancreatic cancer. He spent the last 2 years giving them symptoms identical to his own mums - who passed from pancreatic cancer- and they kept robbing him off. His doc was convinced he is diabetic and every symptom my dad approached him with was put down to ‘ probably diabetes ‘ and he was sent for checks/ all the checks came back negative and the doctors had basically for 24 months plus have said ‘ ok your borderline diabetic - change your lifestyle and you will feel better !!! He has JUST finally had proper tests ( after I kicked off !) and lo and behold - it’s bloody cancer. Advanced. We will discuss treatments next week I believe - I won’t deal well with this so I’m concentrating on being proactive instead. I want to sue that doctor and the surgery and it’s not going to make anything better but it might make them be more bloody careful. So if anyone has advice on a good solicitors who do the old no win no fee I’d be greatful x thanks x
