Are you satisfied with your relationship with your doctors and medical team?

Unfortunately the covid pandemic has let down all the other existing  and potentially missed patients. Phone consultations are a sub standard and backward step. Video consultations show more commitment time wise. Having had to wait by the phone for over an hour past the “appointment” time does nothing for blood pressure levels. But unfortunately it is easier for consultants and can be done from anywhere so will be the new normal consultation going forward. What I don’t understand is at all other previous consultations I have weight and blood pressure taken and a physical examination of my stomach. This appears to be unnecessary now?! The visible signs can be missed.

Secondly trying to get a GP appointment ..........

I never received a shielding letter yet friends with the same cancer did so, the decision who was to shield seems somewhat arbitrary, I do understand there has to be some personal responsibility but the thought an administrative worker decides this is worrying. Looking at the list of people at risk it includes liver disease, as I have numerous liver metastasis does this indicate I was missed from the shielding list? Too much uncertainty. 

I have so many different illnesses but I havent heard from any doctors for any of them I have to go to Boston pilgrim hospital for a mammogram, I dont here about my emphysema, lymphoedema, havent had any blood tests I have had one phone call from my oncologist but that's it I was supposed to have one from my coeliac but that got cancelled, all they seem to care about is this covid not any illnesses you have so no om not happy my PTSD low moods depression and anxiety I've not heard nothing at all Tiger
