A Twitter user has shared how a medical doctor left a knife inside his chest after he had a stab incident in Lagos.

According to @HarryJustin, he got stabbed on November, 2020 and a doctor snitched him up while saying that the stab wound was not “that deep” and that he was very lucky.

November last year I got stabbed, most of my followers where aware of this, “it is not dat deep” say the doctor that stitched me up that night. ?

But after the stabbing incident, my health went from 100-10. I fall ill every 2wks from one medication to another no proper improvement, so we had to go see our family doc, who advised us to go for an X-ray after carrying out some checkup on me, low and behold ??. “ A knife “

A knife inside my chest?? How come? Shebi that doctor that stitched me up said the wounds weren’t that deep and I was very lucky? So Where the knife pass enter my body go digest for my chest??. To make things worst family doc said the only way out was an operation. My hrt skip ?

“Before my heart resume kicking again, I dun already land for benin “UBTH” to be precise, my parents no even allow me breath digest the operation gist. UBTH doctors too sef no get chill, I just come dem no even give me coke to take relax my mind, dem begin take my blood upandan??‍♂️

To cut the story short. The operation was carried out,and it was a success. All happened like a dream that Tuesday evening, from rolling me out from the emergency unit to the theatre and sleeping off like a baby only for me to wake up that it was done. Omo! I breath reach ground.

Here’s the knife that was removed. So I ask myself, what would have happened if I had not travel home to see our family doctor? I for dey Lagos dey treat typhoid & fever whereas I was dying slowly. GOD truly works in a miraculous way. ??‍♂️”
