Ring the rheumatologist's secretary and tell her nicely her that you want to see the rheumatologist because you are unhappy, or ring your specialist nurse that is what she is there for. If you don't know who she is, ask the secretary or the Raynaud's and Scleroderma Association who she is.

Were you weighed before your Iloprost? Good luck.

@ moppett

My aunt runs the maternity unit at Frimley Park. Would you like me to contact her and see if she can give you the correct information for the right department or information as to who you can contact regarding this situation?

Ask to be referred to a rheumatologist. They know about Raynaud's and Scleroderma. Ask your GP to do it. Yo have the right to choose. I can understand why you are angry, I would be too. Good luck.
