Hi Sometimes one has to be firm with docs! I always make myself a memory list, so useful. Good luck.

I took a list last week with me and told my GP about them and she could not wait to get me out of the consulting room plus she had no answers for my problem.

Therese I do exactly the same, I have to make a list because if I don't my brain fog gets the better of me....I also get the same response from my GP and all the other GP's at the practice. I've come to the conclusion they really haven't got a clue about the endocrine system - surely they should at least have a basic knowledge ?! I am on a waiting list to see an Endo....but could be looking at a 6 month wait apparently.

Not what you're looking for?
