Extremely bad head pains, she's been messed about until today when a
Specialist saw her and told her its highly likely she's got a blood clot and scheduled
Her for am MRI scan trouble is that's not until after the bank hol weekend I'm going
Mad with fear because this can be fatal so why are they making her wait
So long I've asked at the hospital but no one has answers what can I do?

Is she in hospital? If so and it was me I would insist on being at the hospital all night so I could keep an eye. I would sleep in the waiting room and keep asking the nurse on duty to check on her...but that's me! I learnt a lot after my dad died when I was 34.
If she is at home I would keep a close eye on her and call an ambulance if you are at all concerned!!! If she is then admitted to A &E they usually have to perform whatever is needed; which is why sometimes A&E is misused because people learn that is the best way to get action.
I live in England, it may be different where you live.
I am and will continue to pray for you both.

I'm fed up of asking they don't seem bothered I just don't know what I can
Do I want to pay for private care as its just torture this way all they've given her so far are
Some triptamins to help sleep. I've also been praying its killing me but
I've got to try stay stong but its hard

MRI scans at the weekend but the specialist who told her she has
A clot said this its ridiculous waiting until next week when its something
Serious like this, she has been having clotty nosebleeds and says the
Pressure on the back of her head is getting weaker and she looks a bit
Healthier so hopefully its sorting itself out I hope anyway thanks for your kind
Replays anyway.

Same answer

This was my prayer.
So so pleased that you have some relief as mentioned above re seeing and speaking.
Once the scan etc has been done and your wife is well on the way to recovery I would mostly certainly think very carefully about the need for some form of formal complaint. Not that you expect anything in return but to highlight a very serious flaw in the system.
Will continue to pray for the 2/3 of you.
Love to you both

Yes I think that a complaint is in the cards mainly so nobody
Else goes through this,I don't see the point in these expensive
Machines if no ones there to operate on a weekend life is a
24/7 shift so the healthcare we get taxed for should be too, I just h
Hope she's still the same tomorrow then I might finally be able to rest

You've just mentioned your mum going through hope she's OK
By the way, you never expect it to be yourself or a loved one
One things for sure I'll be signing me and my family up for private
Care after this shambles. Its been tough and still is I can't sleep
But I'm keeping this to myself my wifes under enough stress.
I managed to explain this to a doctor what was in but just not bothered
His advice was don't worry! OK then if I could do that I wouldn't be human
