Woman badly maltreated in Lagos by doctors for fear of Lassa Fever.

The story was narrated on IG this morning by the woman above.
She said she was alright all through yesterday until she started bleeding from her mouth and nose around 8pm in the evening and was rushed to the General hospital on Marina street Lagos, but sadly got the shock of her life. She said when she was rushed there, she was still bleeding and she heard doctors telling themselves not to touch her because she might be a Lassa fever victim.
She was there for hours before one of them summoned courage to touch her and notice it was her blood pressure. Yet she was still not taken seriously. The lady who says she is grateful to God for sparing her life shared the story saying...
Read her story after the cut

"Few minutes I posted my last post I was rushed to general hospital marina str, the emergency actually.I was bleeding from the nose and mouth to my surprise all this so called doctors and nurses were running from me like I had some kinda of strange disease, I could hear in my pain one student doc telling the other don't touch her, while the rest were saying they had laser fever or wat Eva it's called not me )and he had to use 3 gloves each to check my blood pressure before he then said omg it's your blood pressure that's making you bleed ....it didn't end like this,I got to the hospital 8:pm n all this their rubbish continued till 10 pm ....the annoying part was 3 hours later they started asking my mum all manner of stupid questions, which was suppose to be the first question before all this rubbish attitude....you guys won't also believe they asked my mum to go buy all manner of syringe, and many other things which one of it is that of a drip which they never gave me till now n they Inserted this shit on my hand for no reason at the pic I m posting, I woke up this morning only to be ignored by 5 doctors coming in and out of the ward, until I asked one wat is going on here ,then he replied your files says you have been attended to,which i angrily said NO, Then he left and returned and said the nurse on duty wrote the rubbish. 10 mins later two student doc came to check my blood pressure at abt 8:40 and the story is it's a little bit still high, my question is what's wrong with our hospitals in Nigeria? Why do they not value lives ? I didn't know that other patients family was watching the scene performed by this so called doctors towards me ... You can imagine it's 9:12am wat hospital cleans wards by this time , likewise the rest rooms and bathroom ... I'm so disappointed to be honest, I haven't been to the hospital in 15 yrs and this is the stupid treatment I get trusting general hospital is said to be the best place to go ....������������ I'm writing this in anger cos if I had died I probably might not be able to tell the story ...we need help in our hospitals .... No good bed spread, fans are dirty... We need help @akinwunmiambode"
