[QUOTE="melted welly, post: 7674541, member: 37168"] How do you mean? I’m wondering whether it’s worthwhile having so that when one of us is ill, we can see a person, not get shunted between 101 and the practice receptionist. Speaking to wife tonight, apparently there’s a parent at the school, was ill for weeks, couldn’t eat, got dosed up on painkillers, so much so he was incoherent for 10 days, 2 visits from paramedic, more pain relief. GP “closed”, treatment done via 101 and paramedic visits. Turns out it was sepsis, he’s out of hospital now, still bedbound with a scar that runs from mid thigh to navel and then continues at 90 degrees across his stomach by all accounts. If this is where we’re heading, we’ll be keeping the Kia to >200k miles and I’m putting my money into private healthcare rather than see something like that happen to one of mine. [/QUOTE]
