"As it was"

I met the practitioner for the 1st time at this appointment. I was going to have a ring fitted for a prolapse.

We went through the protocols and then I got ready to be examined.

As she was about to examine she said she had 15 years experience. I hadn’t asked for this information and didn’t know what to say. I just said that’s good you’re very experienced.

The examination continued and my grade 3 prolapse was reduced to 2.

And she didn’t think I needed a ring as it would give me more issues.

She also said I just needed to use the oestrogen medication and not the canasten as prescribed by my previous GP the previous week.

I left a little muddled and needed time to think. I felt she was quite forceful and was stating what she thought was what I needed.

I didn’t write this review until now as I needed time.

I have another thrush issue which the person reading my new request to the surgery. The reply I got by stated - what was said in my last appointment- that means I couldn’t get help until I started the whole process again that led to the appointment I am reviewing!

3 appointments later and I’m no better - and still in vaginal discomfort since 23rd June. Today is 15th August.

I stated in my last request I wanted to know why at my age I am getting thrush or whatever this is???

I’m not happy and still in discomfort.

The surgery needs to do better.

Could I have high levels of sugar causing this? This happened to my nan who I cared for in her seventies.
