Absolutely fuming

So after a 6 hour wait, the doctor finally called me and said she didn't know why I bothered to ring as my urine sample was normal (despite having had 5 UTIs in 7 months) and there's nothing else they're willing to do for me. She told me the private specialist I saw said it was IBS, which is utter tosh as the specialist told me it's unlikely to be IBS and didn't even mention it on the letter that me and the GP got sent. I was hoping to ask for some sort of scan on the area but the GP literally shut that down saying the lap I had (20 months ago while still on the pill I'm now off) was clear so there's obviously nothing wrong with me. I'm at an absolute loss as I'm in daily pain, bloated beyond belief and done with being fobbed off.
