Care

I believe no body in authority gives a damn about us suffering, DWP don’t believe us the government does not provide any help we may need, and when you speak to these people they either talk to us like idiots or just say they sympathise with us.

Hi Ian, I believe you have stent operation next week, I hope all goes well.

Anxiety must be high from this news and recent communication with DWP and the main thing you keep healthy and safe to help recovery.

Health professionals will do necessary paperwork requested of them and in time I hope you have answers on your health condition.

All the best.

I've experienced the same total lack of understanding and care, DWP stress put so much strain on my family and myself that it caused my son who was caring for me to have a complete nervous breakdown ... I understand what your saying, even now years later . The fatigue is dreadful x

I lost count of the number of times my gp was patronising towards me and found every excuse to do nothing about whatever I hung around weeks for to see him about

Could you not see another doctor? That's what I had to do when my doctor was no help with my brain injury. I now have a really great GP.

To be honest just before you mentioned that I’m looking into it as my surgery is full of Asian people and they get the best care, I feel left on the shelf I’ve also reported the practice for this. Regards Ian
