anybody else had trouble getting an xray?

I was told today that the Hospital in my area is no longer doing xrays to people who injure themselves with a fall, to save money?

I wasn't aware of that at all. I had a fall and think I might have injured a disk etc. GP hopes I can get an xray but does not exclude them turning me away despite him saying I should at least try.

I don't know IMPAX, we use Syngo PACS.
I think it's great how I can have it on screen and every Image being taken just goes in there in real time.

Ethan, are you talking about Haywood walk in centre or Hartshill A&E?

Gp supplied me with a green card that says Central Out-Paitents, haywood and Leek.He then told me to get back in touch with him if they refuse me.

Edit: Just never really anticipated this kind of a problem.
