2nd April 2011.....a&e trip

.....We had to take Maisie to a&e this afternoon, as her right leg and foot was freezing to touch, even after wearing toastie socks all day. Firstly Alan rang NHS Direct, who put him straight through to a nurse, she advised us, as Maisie is only 9 days post op, we should contact the ward for their advice. Alan then rang Grosvenor B at The Royal London Hospital, explained everything, they advised we took her to a&e to be checked over to make sure there is nothing wrong with the cast....

....We got a cab to a&e and were there for about 5pm, we waited around 1 1/2 hours for an orthopaedic doctor to come and check her over. He said that as her foot had warmed back up a little, he thinks that it is positional rather than anything to do with the cast itself and said we should just make sure that her leg isn't pressing on any of the cast to prevent it happening....Phew...
