I called 111 and described my symptoms to them for them to then send an ambulance. The paramedics called and said they couldn’t pick me up so we had to drive to then wait five hours for a ten minute conversation where the doctor prescribed me antibiotics after stating that there’s was no need to give me a chest x-ray “cause you’ll either have an infection or not”. Despite being told by a doctor at A&E in Winchester that I couldn’t take antibiotics as it was not an Infection but pleurisy. Complete waste of time and the doctors ignored everything I said
