alt Hacker NewsA friend passed away few months ago in London from kidney infection.
UK seems very to be very cautious of over diagnosis, while my experience in Eastern Europe was opposite - my infant received 3 different kinds of steroids (potentially what stunned his growth).
I'm very sorry to read that
IMO there is a huge amount of denial of treatment to save costs. The gaslighting over symptoms, the refusal to refer you to specialist, the refusal to order tests etc is all part of it. And they never ever say it's about costs - just a tight lipped, "I know what's best" attitude
