GP refuses to help me
Hospital discharge letter requesting GP to arrange endoscopy. GP told me, "No, you'll have to start from scratch with me". I've been asking for help for 15 years with menopause symptoms. However, after an operation I was prescribed iron tablets by the hospital consultant where dosage is dependent upon menopause status. GP asked if I had gone through the menopause. I said I didn't know because I use Mirena coil with no period for over 25 years. Initially GP refused me a blood test. Then said would call me back when he'd checked whether I should have a blood test. I was then given blood test. However, I still struggle with menopause symptoms for which the GP refuses help.
