It is more recent for GPs to take extra Degrees and qualifications in order to spread their knowledge - I have been lucky with mine!

That's a shame, BrightLight. None of mine did originally, but in the new practice all but one does. Maybe a coincidence, but I feel like there is a noticeable difference int heir attitude. Maybe yours trained longer ago? In my new practice, all the doctors are under 45 (or very lucky with their genes!) x

Briony, I am going to find a new surgery and I'll check they are young and uptodate

I've somehow missed this topic, but just caught up.

GPs can be so heartless! A now retired GP at my practice once told me to go home, put on some makeup & basically get over it!

I actually find female GPs are less sympathetic, not sure why that is. Apart from one at my surgery they all told me years ago to stop HRT.

As for headaches, I actually get less of them these days. I used to get really bad ones every weekend without fail.

A surgery change sounds like a good idea.
