    Oh @angela1272, so sorry to hear about all you're dealing with at the moment. It must be really tough- please know that you can come and talk to the community at any time, and we'll do our best to support you.

    If you feel that you'd rather speak to somebody over the phone, you can also contact the Scope helpline at 0808 800 3333.

    Is there anything in particular we can advise you on at the moment?

    Hi @angela1272, how about your local Citizens Advice? You could arrange a face to face appointment at your local branch, which you can find by searching on their website.

    @angela1272,
    im sorry to hear your going through a really bad time, I think changing doctor would be an idea. My old one was the same but moved surgery and new doctor is great.
