Empathic GP's - rarer than Hens Teeth!

Hello,

Can you help, My niece who is a member but just feeling rough at the moment so I said I would see what I could find. She is at wits end with GP. They have taken her off patches 3 times to check her blood which - you've guessed it - is "borderline" -They refuse to give her B12 injections, in spite of E giving them such informative info and having many of the symptoms etc. Reasons are "would be struck off" and " you know more about B12 than I do." (What an indictment)

E really needs to take matters into her own hands. She will self inject but would rather find a sympathetic GP, (Holistic/private if necessary) to "start her off." Sarah Myhill would be the answer but she is not taking on any patients. E lives in W but willing to travel and I would go with her. I live in W. Wales.

Any form of help would be brilliant folks.

Best wishes to you all, don't give up the fight!

Please note - discussion of individual GPs is contrary to forum rules - have closed the post to replies and suggested people use PM if they have suggestions.

You may find it more helpful to contact the PAS directly if you are a member and see if they can help with identifying any GPs who are B12 friendly.
