1st of april 2013 torys are geting rid of the local rimary care trust ... What for i don't know
Its proberly as sumthing to do with vast complants ... Or privatisation
But anyway a was debating if to make a complaint about my gp's lack of action as regard my condition ... Since jan 2012 my doctor would not refer me to a lung specialist he said i was suffering from stress ... If only that was the case but in june i was taken into hospital in a ambulance suffer all sorts of nasty stuff .. And still my doctor dispite hospital doctor confirming a had chronic lung diease still would not refer me .. But he still treated me for stress and referd me to a neurologist who referd me to a lung specialist who am very greatfull to
richard was given a course of anti biotics for a chest infection every month for over a year without being referred anywhere, only when I had to call an ambulance out was he diagnosed with ipf, we never went back to that dr, changed straight away and the new dr has been abs brilliant. Not much good complaining though, the stress of being ill is enough and its hard to get the medical proffession to ever admit being wrong. We were happy just to get a caring dr who told richard not to come to the surgery because of germs and would come out or talk to us on the phone every time.
Injustis a cant stand of any sort ... A don't think i can let it go
Yes is bad for our health disputes but so is in action
All the best and thanks for feed back
Dazisnotsogood. You need to feel comfortable with your Doctor - do what everyone says, get a new one that is friendly as well as everything else. Google PALS (patients advisory liasion service) who are so helpful.
As for cuts and changes, ok if it is for the better but often it is not. And it costs money. Bored with it. Good to come on here and talk about things

Go for everything, Dazis, see you are too young to be messed around. You need to sort things out with them. PALS is all over the place. Could your surgery give you their number, or the nearest hosp. No idea where you live, could be just around the corner to me. You'd be the unlucky in that case because I'm ancient.
Need to go firmly but gently with these bods. Get more help that way. You could see your CAB for any necessary action. Need to keep a diary of what has been going on in your life. Lets know how you get on --

Hi Daz, It sounds as if your GP was about as good as a chocolate fire guard and he needs to be shown up for his poor diagnosis skills or just darn right inability to do his job. It sounds as though he had blinkered vision and once he had set out on treating his origional diagnosis was unwilling to addmit his mistake and change course while all the time your health was deteriorating. The evidence speaks for itself so complain to the powers to be whoever they are as you have suffered and are possibly worse than you would have been if you had recieved the correct treatment from the outset. Tony.
hi dazis.ur spot on.gps are not gods .and we are not just there wage pakets.i am a mum of 4.gran of 11 an great gran of 1.63 yr old.i worked for 30 yr.so im entitled to a bit of decent med care.not 12month old xray shoved ot of sight by old gp.and yes ad i bin informed in june i had copd.i think it wouldnt have got bit worse ad i known.now am moderate.no gp not geting away with it.ive paid into the nhs when i worked .so now i want treatment not shoved in a cupboard.i havnt just steped ot of a lorry r werever and walked into any hospital r gps office and got immediate treatment.i have my med notes from 2yr bak.i had to pay 10pound for them.thats wer i saw xray from june 2012 wat states no action needed.my foot not need action wat a arogant man the old gp.
Sorry to hear of your dilemma, complaining is a very stressful long process but sometimes necessary. Clinical judgement is a hard one to challenge and all doctors vary in their opinions . The best first step is sadly try another GP. If you are really adamant then make a complaint to your practice manager, but honestly only a doctor can alter a clinical desicion.Do what you feel is best for you, keep details of everything that happens incase you need it at a later date. Hope things go well for you and you get proper diagnosis and treatment
Cheers yes i sumited complaint well with practice manager .. He knows i have evidance of issues with my medical records .. And looking on line is serious issue but hay av nothing to lose .. Av not even got my health but between me and you am going to be hard faced and stick it out is not nearly killing me then trying to pass the book to other doctor .. Am going to wait and see. What he dose .. A think al be ok its not like 50 years sho when there was no internet or accountability
All keeping me eye on him with help and surport of others
Thanks again gor all advice posative comments answer
Well done for making a complaint we are all backing you, it takes guts to do it, challenge a doctors decision.You sound like a person like myself and there is supposed to be accountability now and what they call openness. Your story sounds very familiar to me hope to hear more from you in the near future,stress is not an illness its a symptom often caused by illness or other upsets in live pattern.
