Hermes 123 It does matter whether patient or Consultant and all in between, getting a message over clearly and precise seams to have gone out of the window these days during lock down, having one person telling to this as a matter of urgency and the other referred too department saying that is not possible.
I am running around like a head less chicken, my stroke victim wife needs a tooth extraction due to her pain, took her too a urgent referral clinic who did a filling on one side, but due to the fact she is on Apixaban they could not extract her painful tooth and advise to contact her regular Dental Practice and tell them its a matter of Urgency and not to give her Apixaban just in case, so I have a new consultation Wednesday : leave of the Apixaban just in case. But when one hears the silliness in those conversations in between while, it shows the utter strain our Health Service is under. I too had some miss constructions' when I visited a new pain Consultant last week, try ones hardest to listen to what is being said, these are hard times for all. Hermes.
Out of the frying pan into the Fire 
I'm new. Opiate prescribing 
Not coping with the pain and wiery of going back to the doctor
REPEAT NERVE BLOCK
