I was asked to attend to give a blood sample for hypertension, I was phoned and asked to do it again a fortnight later whilst monitoring my BP four times a day with a machine at home and also to bring in a urine sample why? couldn't tell me.
I then got a LETTER signed by my GP telling me I had another ongoing health issue. Still no phone call. Do I phone and ask for a telephone appointment or wait and see what happens.?
Is it the fault of the G.PS or of the circumstances they are expected to work with now? Why are so many leaving after training and saying it was not the job they or their patients expected of them? They appear to be administrators not practising DR's. Surgeries are training nurses to do the job of what in the past been the G.P's job.
Are we expecting too much or is the way of the future. A friend made me laugh when she got a telephone conseltation about a hemeroid problems she had said how do I show you down the phone.
All we can do is wait and see. Which really annoys me.
