A sore throat shouldn’t end a life, but that’s exactly what happened to Michael Reynolds, a 29-year-old dad from Boston, Lincs. After being sent home twice by doctors with a tonsillitis diagnosis and antibiotics, his throat closed up, leading to a fatal cardiac arrest just 24 hours later. The inquest revealed a missed chance to send him to A&E, where urgent care might have saved him. Michael’s family is now pushing for more awareness about the dangers of severe throat swelling and the importance of listening to your instincts when symptoms worsen. How can we make sure stories like this don’t repeat? #Health #BodyHealth #PatientSafety
