I've had a persistent cough for 9 or 10 weeks. History of cancer in my family. 59 years old. No Covid 19 symptoms, only cough. Been trying in vain to get through to my GP practice for weeks. On calling in an attempt to make an appointment to see my GP there is a screed of messages re. prescriptions, NHS for Covid etc. I select option 2 as advised and the phone is constantly engaged, then times out.
There's actually a National Advertising Campaign ongoing regarding contacting your GP if you have a persistent cough. I just want a GP's opinion. Thanks.
