Hi again, sorry for the delay I made a mistake and thought I would get a call from docs yesterday, however it was today the nurse called me, asked my problem and said I need to see gp for a physical exam, well I wasnt at all pleased, I am now housebound but IF I did go out I know my lungs would suffer they usually do in winter, but now we do have really extreme cold, anyway what can gp tell from a physical exam they know I have severe copd and asthma amongst other things.so anyway I left it with her to speak to on call gp.

My daughter has just called me to say, that her daughter my grand daughter has some papers for me to fill in, which I will get on saturday, by the way my grand daughter works as receptionist and I only recently joined the practice well I did join them for a better experience, so looks like I am getting it now. So hopefully I will get the questionare that has been mentioned in answer to my previous post, sorry its a bit long again. Joan x😇

Please find a way to get to the physical examination T_Lady . Sometimes it's essential to have your lungs listened to at the very least. P

Hi peeg really now you me thinking what else can happen to my lungs, I do have regular checks with my community copd nurse already, perhaps a gp will be able to visit me, I am housebound with lots of other health problems aswell, I am also registered disabled due to spinal nerve damage since 1984 long before my lung problems. had copd and asthma for the past 15 years. I just hope they will come out to me otherwise i will not be able to get help. Thanks for your help and advice. Joan x 😇
