A MAN suffering from an unexplained condition which has left him paralysed along the left side of his body says he has lost faith in the NHS after the way he has been treated.

Roy Ajala, 21, who has been suffering from what he calls an "ongoing health problem" since 2006, says his treatment from various NHS services has left him frustrated.

Mr Ajala collapsed and was rushed into Whittington Hospital in Upper Holloway earlier this month.

On being discharged, he says staff at the hospital gave specific instructions that he should receive help and assistance at his Edmonton Green flat, as he was suffering with a lot of pain and was bed-ridden.

Speaking from his flat last week, Mr Ajala said: "What they've done is left me with nothing. I'm left trying to find the relevant person to deal with this."

He said he was left with no equipment or assistance even though he was unable to walk to his front door.

He said: "My girlfriend is looking after me, but she has ME. It's been established that I need a carer. It's very frustrating."

Organising this after-care for Mr Ajala would have been his Primary Care Trust's (PCT) responsibility.

However, Mr Ajala has had trouble registering with a GP in Edmonton since he moved from Hackney, which may have caused complications.

A spokeswoman for Enfield PCT said: "Enfield PCT is concerned to hear of Mr Ajala's case. If Mr Ajala needs help registering with a doctor, we would encourage him to contact the PCT for advice."

She recommended he contact the Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) about any problems he is having accessing local NHS services.

A spokeswoman for Whittington Hospital said: "We are sorry that Mr Ajala feels that he has not received the care and treatment that he needed on leaving the Whitt-ington Hospital in April."

She said the hospital had received a complaint from his family which they would formally investigate.

Mr Ajala's treatment on leaving the Whittington was another chapter in a longer history of grievances.

Mr Ajala says he also visited North Middlesex University Hospital numerous times in 2006 where he was given a string of different drugs, but his condition continued to deteriorate.

He said: "They just admitted they didn't know what was wrong with me. They created an error and now Whittington have made another error. I'm left just lying here."

At Chase Farm Hospital, where Mr Ajala was taken last week, a brain scan showed he had some swelling on his brain, but further tests at the Royal Free Hospital proved inconclusive. He will now have to return as an outpatient for further tests.

A spokeswoman for North Middlesex Hospital said: "We are sorry that Mr Ajala feels that he has not received the care and treatment that he needs."

She said they were not aware from PALS or their complaints department about his concerns, but hoped Mr Ajala would get in touch to resolve any issues quickly.
