"Not very helpful"

I know the perspective on COVID has changed with most people understandably, however having had COVID previously which required ITU admission and ventilation I would have hoped to be supported with having it again.

I tested positive yesterday for a second time with the same symptoms as last time. I would very much like to minimise the risk of going to hospital again so requested an appointment to discuss the medications available for out of hospital use (anti-virals).

Unfortunately my GP didn’t seem this as necessary and said I didn’t warrant an appointment. The receptionist spoke to the duty doctor regarding this.

I’ve resorted to ring 111 who have referred me to a clinician in regards to the anti virals due to my COVID history.

Honestly just hoped to have had a conversation regarding the risks/potential and current symptoms.

It is a shame as they have been very helpful up until now.
