Marydoll a tiny light in an otherwise dreadful week. GPs aren’t what they were.
Hoping those with problems and health worries, either for themselves or family, get relief soon.
I too am worried about Blossoming .

Blossoming emailed me, then nothing.
That is wh I am concerned.

Marydoll, could you complain about your GP? Her attitude has added insult to injury. All best wishes, for your health and your home!

Oh, MD, this isn’t too much but “three much” as an old friend would say.
I hope things can be sorted out, that the thrush is treated and everything else prescribed for…
Hugs 🫂❤️

I have been to the surgery. The saga continues.
More tomorrow. I did find out that there have been multiple complaints about this GP, who is actually a new partner.

I have heard from Blossoming, one line saying she is very unwell.
😪

Its chaotic here, trying to fix the leak s.
No water either. 😭

Fingers crossed for you Marydoll and hoping Blossoning feels better soon .

Thinking of you Blossoming

Day 9 building update, we are confined to our sitting room, we can reach the kitchen by going outside and round the side of the house. Unfortunately at the moment no access to any loo.

Might be forced to follow the GCs example when they are in the pool and do a wild wee round the corner out of sight in the torrential rain 🤦‍♀️💨☔️

G.G. I feel your pain.🤣
How can you do a bowel screening test, when both bathrooms are out of commission.🤣

Too much info, I'm beginning to sound like Mick.

Marydoll I cannot believe that GP was so rude. Please consider putting a formal complaint in to the Practice Manager with a copy to the senior partner. I worked for 17 years as a secretary in a GP practice many years ago and it was all so different back then. I despair of my own GP practice and dread needing any help or an appointment. I also worked for 20 years as a PA to a consultant and oh my goodness I worry what has happened to our NHS healthcare. I also have two daughters who work for two different hospital Trusts (both medical rather than admin) and I am very alarmed and scared by what they tell me.

Hoping Blossoming is ok and also a big hug to all those that need one. My heart goes out to all those struggling on this thread.

I am sitting in my conservatory watching the heavy rain and lightening and listening to the thunder. Goodness where has summer gone
