Winding myself up

6 Replies

I've been trying to speak to the dr for the past 9 days and he hasn't rung me back. I am due to see him tomorrow but because of my anxiety etc. I will do anything not to go. I am starting to get more and more agitated as the day goes on.

Hi winter get your surgery up on the internet and look at the complaints, mine has it online and can fill form out online, this is not on, don't be ignored.

Great advice Bonnie

I have used the form you mentioned and it does bring results.

My doctor actually came round to see me although it did take 3 days,but he did apologise for his mistakes.

I've just rung them, he should be back from his visits at 4, he hasn't even read his messages yet. I have to ring back at 4 before his afternoon surgery starts.

It's just my anxiety has got worse not better. I don't like people coming to the house and I'm scared to go any further than about 2 miles. I've always been scared of the dr's but I cannot even set foot in there at the mo.

I no how you feel, I avoid the docs if I can, my anxiety has also o worse since taking the meds. I also don't like others coming to my house I get very shaky and end up going to my room until they have gone. Hope doc does ring you back now 4 is not to far away, maybe a good idea to wright down all you need to talk to him about as we do sometimes forget.

Love

Bonnie

Hi,

Ring the receptionist explain your severe anxiety and asked for an appointment where your first to be seen, so you dont have to wait around. if possible take someone with you who can support you and take you home. if you get anxious in the doctors wait in the toilet if you need to and just get the person your with to get you when your called. hope this helps x

Feel for you, have been to the doctors so man times that now I try not to do fed up of hearing you are depressed and very anxious yes I am with headaches if they went maybe I would feel better but do hope you get results you wantTake Care
