I'm so sorry to hear you are suffering in this way, is there any chance of you seeing a new GP there is so much that can be done to at least try to give some relief, from what you say you have been left to your own devices and that is so wrong, I know it is a huge decision to change healthcare but you deserve so much more help.

I am the seasons as you everyone else on this site seems to see specialists I wish I knew why I don't get sent to one. I have COPD as well as arthritis and thylroidism. Please can anyone give me advice.

hi hu, poor you. Have you asked to be referred to a rheumatologist for fibro? If your GP refuses see another doctor as don't think they can refuse you. Surely you see someone for your thyroid problem ... an endocrinologist at least?

What medication have you been prescribed ?

Are you allergic to anything ?

i ask as others can advise you what is available for this and then go to doc ask for a review of your medication (you have the right and they must honour it if you ask or refer you to pain clinic)

Good luck x
