I have to say, I have never seen any 'dodgy' medical advice from sqad. He does not need to prove his credentials or medical experience - whatever risque or inflammatory comments he made in chatterbank, he has always tried to give sensible and sound advice in body/health section.
nhs covers all of england - where do you live? Where is your nearest walk in centre? Why wont the GP give him an appointment? Have you told them it's urgent?
bednobs, I live in N. Ireland. If a walk in centre is an A & E (?) then the nearest one is 45 mins away. He doesn't have a GP, he's in the forces, they have a med centre (which is a bit rubbish).
I shouldn't even have put 'tried to give....' - the tried doesn't come into it , he juset always has given sensible and sound advice in this particular category.
well then that explains everything! I'm sorry i have no knowledge of the health system over there. By walk in centre i meant a gp practice that accepts walk ins but i have no idea if you have them over there
when I have had a similar issue I have phoned the doctors and explained what is happening they will often just arrange an alternative medication which I can collect, no appointment needed.
Sqad, I think you should not be intimidated by the dislikes of some. I'm sure you've seen the long threads and numerous post about you, all of which denotes some form of importance. You should get back in here laddy and get your feet wet again. :-)
Society, medical advice is based on confidence, lose that and you have lost credibility and that I have seem to have done.
CB was at one time fun, but in my opinion it has been taken over by jackthehat,bobbisox (ha! ha1 he ! he! I love you all LOL etc)BOO (tell it like it is) and their numerous supporters.
AB has lost it's trolls but has gained a more deadly subtle enemies.......in my opinion.
sqad, please don't let people on here knock your confidence. I specifically come on here when I need medical advice and put your name in the question box because I know without a doubt you'll help me.
