"Overall NHS experience"

I waited a week to speak to a clinician and a further 3 days to see a GP. Whatever I have, the GP said I’d need a blood test to find out. It will be a further 2 weeks before an appointment becomes available.

In the meantime I will just take paracetamol every four hours, night and day to manage the pain and sign off work again - as I said to the GP, I’m currently taking 12 a day and have been for over a week now; I don’t really feel great about continuing this for another 2 weeks. 

Hopefully I have nothing serious and the four weeks minimum to find out won’t be serious either.
