When I went to practice medicine in Australia from the UK, I had no idea what I was getting myself into I saw crystal meth decimate Australian hospitals; an epidemic here could stun the NHS
The first time you see someone high on crystal meth, it’s quite a sight. Nobody had really warned me that it was a problem. It was in my first week as an emergency department doctor in one of Australia’s busiest urban hospitals. I saw the young man hurling himself against the walls of the main ward area, sweating gallons, screaming his paranoia to a divided audience of fearful patients and seen-it-all-before A&E staff.
