"Medical device making me sick"

About: Metro North Hospital and Health Service

(as the patient),

The put an electric device in me and I believe it’s killed my nervous system. They tried to tell me it’s for my heart, and I believe the x ray shows the wires aren’t connected to my heart.

I want to take it out because I feel it’s killing me. It’s taken 5 months and now I can’t use my hands to lock the doors, I can’t put on my shoes or dress myself. I’ve been complaining ever since but nobody will see me.

I went to the new satellite hospital, got an x ray on my heart, chest – on Bribie Island. They wouldn’t give me the x ray results. I saw the and the GP said they go into my heart and but I can see they go down past my navel. It seems to me that everybody is just covering up.

I’ve got to sell my house and move into a nursing home. I can’t even get a level 4 from the Government.

I’m on a waiting list to have it removed but I think it’s going to kill me before I can get it out.
