I feel for you Linda - but yes do think carefully as it can be out of the frying pan into the fire so to speak ...

However, please think about it, many surgeries are the same and at this time of year are desperately busy. Mine for instance you need to give about a weeks notice to see someone! Other surgeries may not be willing to take you on either, especially if you have medical problems. A friend of mine had to have a medical before the GP would take her! It also depends on if they have any vacancies. So please try to calm down and think very carefully,

My doctor's surgery has open surgery every morning from 8.30 to 10. You just turn up and wait to see one of the doctors or the nurse. Although it's usually very busy on a Monday the other days are not so bad and I've never not seen my own doctor if I wanted to. Of course at this time of year appointments are few and far between and understandably so and we are in the country but the surgery is a fair size and usually busy.

As you know..we have had long chats on this subject...you MUST get an appointment with the doctor...by law they MUST keep so many appointments free for emergencies and this is getting to the emergency stage..before she pushes you down the stairs or something...Your own health isnt up to coping with all this either..
Phone her social worker NOW and tell her you need help before it leads to tragedy.
