I have been suffering with ill health since April and it’s ongoing. I have had to diagnose myself, pay for a private GP to get a referral, purchase my own medical equipment and research symptoms.
Whenever I try to see a GP, I mainly get passed on to a clinical practitioner (nurse) and then fobbed off. I finally got a head MRI, from my cardiologist, that I paid for, which shows demyelination and brain scarring. The practice has not discussed this with me once. Only through me pressing them on subjects has it ever come up. Not even a courtesy call! I’m left at home slowly dying, or at least that’s what it feels like. I also have chronic hypoxemia. They dismiss this.
Save yourself the stress and find a practice that actually understands that they work for you and not their bank balance or the pharmaceutical companies
