Just a little rant.....I have been feeling poorly for a couple of days, at first thought it to be just a cold, but then last night woke up with sore chest, coughing and wheezing, playing a merry tune, just wish I knew the words, not that I could have sung to it lol. anyway, my rant is this..... Ray(my husband) rang the doctors surgery for an appointment for me, the receptionist said none till next thursday, he said how important it was that I got my emergency pack prescription as the one I had was out of date, all they said was ring in the morning see if someone cancels. Ray then rang the C O P D nurse and told her what happened, I have a chest infection and it is important that I get on the anti biotics and steroids as soon as possible as you all know how important that is. The COPD nurse rang back, said she had got on to the surgery and ordered a prescription of antibiotics and steroids, to be picked up tomorrow. The COPD nurses are Wonderful, and I am so grateful. Rant Over... Hope you are all keeping warm. xx
