Floydy, could you see a nurse sooner maybe?
Sorry folks, Good Morning to you all on this bright, crisp morning.

I'd be inclined to go private, it's disgraceful your gp hasn't fast tracked you for this.
I agree, especially as it seems due to their treatment procedure.

You can only make an appointment by ringing in at 10.30 am.
They are at a fortnight in advance.
I have been doing that for 3 days and not managed to get through.
Welcome to the NHS.
We have to ring at 8 a.m.
One day last week I rang 42 times before I got through!!!

Do you have a local Walk-In centre?

Good morning all. Been at the school looking at their new rooms, they have turned half the gym into new class rooms and taken half the dining room and turned it into a keep fit centre, looks really good. The keep fit centre is open 8am - 7pm so kids can use the equipment when ever they get time, new members of staff running the place and they will mark the children's cards each time they use the place and once the cards are filled there is a prize.Seems like a really good way to get them into fitness to me.

I know what you mean about the ring back thingy, but it doesn't work on the GP's line, nor the hospitals - not round here anyway.
The nearest walk in centre I know of is about 40 mins away I believe.
I haven't been too well the last couple of weeks, and in desperation I rung 111 in the end.
They got me an out of hours appointment with a Doc at a small hospital in the next town (about 10 mins away).
They did this twice for me recently.

Re: Good Morning Friday !
Sorry to impose on this Good Morning thread...I can't see anyone else yet. The nurse syringed my ears yesterday. A walk-in appointment wouldn't make any difference because I still need a referral to the hospital by a doctor and I can't get an appointment yet. That's the issue. I'm stuck with this now. I have no idea how I'll manage at work or even be able to drive.
I have the Otex in now which is my last chance. If they don't clear this afternoon I can't go to the two concerts tonight and tomorrow. I can't hear a thing.
Very, very depressed.
