Thanks everyone.RichardMel , since i saw the consultant last week and asked him for something for my eyes and told him about the lights giving me migraines, he said he would have a word with the Sister on the ward (the one that told me NO WAY!) Et voila .. since then they have let me use that small room and my heads been fine , no headaches , nothing ! I understand if they need it for a reason , but if i can use it in the meantime that will be great !
