Thanks E. I agree with you. Due to the bad experiences that I am having with my local hospital, I document stuff. I didn't receive a copy of the letter that is supposed to be sent to my GP after a consultation. It usually comes within 4-5 weeks. I phoned earlier in the week and the secretary said that there was no notes on the system and she would chase it up for me but was not surprised with that doctor.

I had a call from that doctor this morning asking how I was and then asking what we did and what plan was made at the consultation.:eek: I asked him why and he replied that he'd written up and uploaded the notes but someone (secretary) must have lost them. When I said that if you uploaded them, the notes would be there.

Went very quiet. Then he started talking medical terminology about me. I asked him to talk in layman's terms as I didn't understand what he was trying to say. He changed the subject to why I wanted a copy of the letter anyway :eek::rotfl::rotfl:

I await to see what he writes in his letter. I asked him to document that he'd phoned me to ask what had been done/planned in his letter to my GP.

Sounds to me like they didnt dictate a letter - he *should* have at least made written notes and they should be able to go from that. I have lost count of the number of times a clinician hasnt dictated or recorded over a dictation. It happens quite often that we will get a partial dictation that gives us absolutely no idea which patient it relates to xx

Thanks, DD. It is just so frustrating though. One step forward, two steps back.

Have you finished at the allotment yet?

Lidl coupon was only in London edition, so you are not going mad. x

I can't decide what to do for Sainsbury's double up - the only thing I really want is Amazon gift cards but don't think I can do that?

morning

skim reading as the 2 boys are always up to mischief, we're not taking them home to London til Monday !!

I went out of the room the boys were in for 5 mins, they had their toys, tv on and drinks at hand- the eldest the 3 year old came to me- look nana come quick, look what Zach has done- in his hand he had the bracket complete with screw and plug, that was holding up a wrought iron curtain pole and the curtains draped on the floor...
