I am struggling with a painful frozen shoulder and have tried repeatedly to book an appointment for a second physiotherapy session. However, every time I call after hanging on for ages I get a message to call back later as all the lines are busy. It doesn't seem to make a difference what time of the day I make a call. I cannot be the only person finding it so difficult to get through.
I'm taking pain killers for the shoulder but they don't seem to make a lot of difference.
Also, the letter states that if I do not attend I will be discharged. I'm horrified that I may have to start all over again with a referral from my GP all because telephones cannot handle the calls.
