A HAMPSHIRE mum is demanding answers after her son died in her arms just minutes after a doctor claimed he was suffering from nothing worse than indigestion and sent him home.

Nathan Wheeler took his last breath in the back of his uncle’s car as his mum Patricia Spencer tried in vain to keep him alive.

Health bosses have launched an investigation into the death of the 29-year-old and are awaiting the results of a post-mortem due to take place later this week.

Nathan, of Fareham, was rushed to the out-of-hour’s clinic at the Gosport War Memorial Hospital at 9.30pm on Saturday with agonising chest pains and shooting pains in his left arm.

But despite his screams of agony, profuse sweating and clutching of his chest, a doctor allegedly dismissed fears that he was having a heart attack and said it was just indigestion.

Nathan was told to pick up a prescription from a local chemist and go back to his mum’s home in Cort Way, Fareham. But Nathan never made it there.

Ten minutes after leaving the clinic he took two last gasps of breath, told his mum he loved her and died in her arms in the back of the car.
