Well that was not an ideal consultation. May I suggest you ask to be sent a copy of the letter that is (hopefully) going be sent to your GP confirming all the changes and new meds. Then you can read it and Do some follow up research .

I totally sympathise - that happened to me too when I had a phone consult. Complete waste of time.

I feel for you. Something of an anti climax. If you are like me appointments (in whatever form) are looked forward to, helps with clarification. You have not had that. Yes as has been said you should get a copy of letter to gp and if not ask for one. Or maybe ask anyway to save time. Mine come anywhere between 2 to 10 weeks after appt, which as I see him every 3 months is not always good. My appointment has been changed from May 6th to November with no offer of phone consultation. Anyway I do hope you get clarification soon.
