Reason for not seeking treatment for attacks. The main reason given for not receiving treatment (multiple responses allowed), was that the symptoms were judged by the patient to be mild (n = 34/37, 91.9%). Other reasons given for not seeking treatment include the distance to the hospital (n = 7/37, 18.9%), the treating hospital not offering treatment at night (n = 4/37, 10.8%), going to the hospital to be treated would involve missing work or school (n = 8/37, 21.6%) and the treatment was too expensive (n = 6/37, 16.2%).
