My GP has basically washed her hands of me today as she doesn't know how to treat me or if I get the bloods I requested how to interpret them. She has initially passed the buck to another GP (who I'd asked to run the bloods last Friday and then when I turned up on Monday for them he hadn't sorted anything) and he is calling me tomorrow. They also didn't retest B12 which was the main reason I was going (at her request)
I said I would pay private for my tests but she said they still wouldn't know what to do or how to interpret them. She suggested I see a private heamatolgist but I really can't afford to I asked if I could be referred to an NHS one and then if I needed further bloods that I needed privately then I could pay for them then but she just told me to speak to GP tomorrow about it.
She prescribed me oral cyanacobalomin a couple of weeks ago and I didn't start taking them until I had all tests done. She said today she was pleased i hadn't started taking them as would muddy waters more
She's fobbed me off for the last 2 months now. If I change GPs it's just going to delay things further and I'm struggling every day to breathe properly
Where can I go to get help?
