I was being investigated for an issue for my bowel which has been going on for 6 weeks.it now seems from a phone call from my gp about something totally irrelevant that they've lost the follow up stool sample from weeks ago.Ive been waiting 3 years for therapy and have had to chase the trust myself by emailing drs.I have decided im not going to have this hysterectomy now because they are all totally incompetent.and I want to leave my practice.I dont trust any if them.how can i continue to get my medications now? And get treatment for this pain without going to A and E? do I need to go private?

    It sounds like you're in a lot of pain and frustration @Jane315STARX

    You can order a full refill from your current GP before switching or call NHS 111 for an emergency prescription if you run low. You can then register at a new GP surgery , and your medical records should transfer automatically.

    You don't need to go private to get treated but if you do, a single private consultation can give you quick answers while keeping your overall care on the NHS so it may be worth it for peace of mind and potentially to speed things up.

    If your the pain becomes severe or if you notice any further changes then it sounds like it may be time to go to A&E. Have you contacted PALS before about what has been happening with your care?

    No ive never contacted pals before.Ive been having these missed calls from NHS clinical coaching.But when I googled it.It just doesn't seem relevant to me at all.Its about teaching or coaching you how you can help.yourself with any illnesses you have.Which I find unbelievable that ive been referred to
