Daughter is 14 months
Been full of cold now for over 2 weeks. Rang gp and couldn't get an appointment. Rang 111 and noone got back to me
Ended up in a and e for 14 hours and got diagnosed with a chest infection. This was on Wednesday
I'm not complaining about the wait at a and e at all, more frustration that i had to go to a and e at all.
Anyway 3 days later on antibiotics and she isn't any better at all.
Shes so chesty and she has a high temperature.
She hasn't eaten anything solid for almost a week now. Having milk and water.
All she's doing is crying and sleeping.
I Rang 111 this morning who told me someone would be in touch within 4 hours. Its now hour 6.
I appreciate there busy but I really really don't want to go back to a and e
Is there something I'm missing?

When my son was very poorly and in hospital, we were given a free pass to take him straight to the ward if he became ill again.

Hopefully you will get the same as it gives you peace of mind.

PS I'm so glad that she is on the mend.

We've been given the discharge papers and are awaiting to go home. Cant wait now. Similar to last poster said in the next 5 days if she deteriorates again can go straight back to the ward. But shes a lot happier. So glad I went now. I mean it's been a long almost 6 days but shes healthy and shes happy
