A cancer patient recovering from major surgery has described how she was left in excruciating pain for hours on end after staff at an under-fire NHS hospital failed to give her appropriate pain relief.
Zoe, 38, who had surgery for kidney cancer in September, said she has suffered nightmares following her stay at Salford Royal Hospital after being forced to wait in agony to receive adequate treatment. She says she was only given the right medication when a health watchdog inspector visiting the hospital raised the alarm.
