    There's an excuse for your toddler but my darling hubby has started calling the baby 'peh' (pet). It is bringing out my twitchy eye. There is a reckoning on the horizon.....

    My GP is so rude; I left his surgery feeling absolutely dreadful today.

    I have anxiety and depression (I was diagnosed by a different doctor at the same surgery, a few months ago and prescribed medication.)
    I had been feeling really good since taking the tablets, but a few weeks ago I had to see my GP about something else.
    He prescribed me medication.

    Fast forward a few weeks now; the medication isn't working and all it has done is make me feel low in my mood (almost rendering my anti-depressants useless).

    I was going to the doctor today to tell him the tablets weren't working and to tell him how I was feeling.

    He was rude and unsympathetic, asking me WHY I was feeling low even though I said I didn't know, why was I on anti-depressants to begin with, was I abused as a child (!), there was nothing he could do about the secondary problem I had gone to see him about, nothing at all and I was to "put up with it".

    I was told to stop moaning about my pain "there are bigger things in the world to worry about", and he casually told me to increase my anti-depressants if I wanted to, before telling me to come back in two weeks to see how I am.

    I had sat through our consultation in floods of tears (because of how I was feeling) and had to endure all of this.

    I had mentioned during the conversation that my partner had medical problems which I was worried about and he said "Well if I was him I would worry too".

    So I left there feeling atrocious.

    I would nearly make a complaint about him but I don't know if he's actually done anything to warrant a formal complaint.

    Either way, I'm switching doctors tomorrow.

    I still feel extremely low.
    I thought doctors were meant to have a bedside manner.

    Make a complaint for sure, if nothing else he's guilty of being a complete wanker and surely is expected to have some reasonable level of human decency about him :mad:.

    Look Fussyonion, look at the number of people outraged and upset for you. Your man, doctor or not, was wrong wrong wrong. There is no excuse for such talk from a grown man who has chosen to help people feel better for a living.
    I'm the same in that I have a GP I have found rude on occasion (I've only been to that person about 3 times), but it wouldn't be at all at that level. I think I'm going to drop mine anyway, I'm forking out 50 euros each time, the least they can do is being helpful and courteous.
    A letter of complaint would be completely justified in your case imo.

    That doctor is a disgrace, fussy. You deserve better. Can you change over to the doctor who diagnosed the anxiety? I think reporting him is a good idea but only if you are up to it.

    "He's such a rascal, sorry!", she said...I can think of a better word than rascal.

    Also what's up with communion girls looking like mini brides these days?
    Was in town yesterday and saw a little girl wearing a strapless mermaid dress with a boned bodice covered in sparkles and ruffles.
    It looked so so inappropriate. Such a pretty child but she looked dreadful.
    She wasn't from a certain demographic of society either, which you'd usually associate with such wear.

    They are brides of Jesus... that's what the Communion always looked like to me anyway!

    I feel so sad that you went through that. Yes you should report him. I had a bad experience with a female GP nearly 6 years ago and I still regret not making a complaint about her.
    I'm not sure how you would go about making a complaint but look into it and see what the process is. You don't have to decide you're definitely going to go through with it right now. You can just make some enquiries and see how you feel then.

    The trend for "Thins" versions of food. Sandwich Thins, Wheat Thins, Ryvita Thins, and so on. Yesterday I found some Chocolate Digestive Thins in one of those Euro Stores for much less than the usual price. The same biscuits, just thinner, so you'll eat twice as many. I can just imagine the managers at the food companies:
    Let me get this straight: we can make thinner versions of our standard products, call them "Thins", and slap on a markup because they're "healthier"? And we're not doing this already? So what are you standing around here for? Go!

    I had a very buzzy fly in the living room on Friday night zooming around at a million miles an hour annoying the hell out of me. These are the kind of challenges I accept so I daubed boot polish on my face, grabbed my tea towel and the hunt was on. The only chance I had was listening for when it landed somewhere, track it down and try to get it with the towel. 20 minutes later and after 5 of 6 bungled attempts it landed on the ceiling lamp in the living room. Not being able to take a swipe with it there I just flicked the towel gently to get it to move and made the lamp sway a little. No problem I thought, it'll settle in a second. But it swayed a bit two much, came loose from the fitting and came crashing down on top of the coffee table Only Fools and Horses style smashing 2 of the 5 shades and sending glass and bits of lightbulb in every direction.

    The Greggs beside my workplace only ever has 1 or 2 staff on during the morning rush (8am-9am) and lunch rush (12pm-2pm) when the queues are almost out the door. However, any other time it will be quiet and there will be at least 4 or 5 staff standing looking at each other.

    James Reilly is talking today about banning smoking in outside areas.

    He is discussing it with Pat Kenny at the moment. He said that people should be able to eat without the inconvenience of someone smoking beside them.

    Yes. I agree. If smoke is being blown in their face. But what if there is nobody sitting near the smoker, should they not then be able to enjoy an after meal cigarette?

    What about the inconvenience of noisy children, or noisy phone calls? I swear to God both of these things give me more stress than 50 years of passive smoking in an open air venue ever could.

    Whatever happened to live and let live? We can't do a goddam thing without someone looking at it and saying "Oooh, that should be regulated". As a consequence, we are losing the capacity to think of others in a considerate manner because "There's no law that says we should".

    It's a free country! Is it? Is it really?

    P.S. Former smoker. Never had any issue with not smoking around those who rather I didn't but we were able to work that out without a sign on the wall.

    Some ignorant turd blasting the horn as I stopped briefly at the hospital to let my mother out in the pissing rain at the main entrance. Then the car park is so full they weren't letting barriers up to go in. When I do get in there are cars everywhere, up on grass verges even. Having to queue then to wait for someone to move so I had a space. Clinic is packed in here now, FML :(

    Hospitals that give everyone the same time for an appointment.

    If they gave everyone individual, staggered appointment times the carparks might not be permanently overfull and people might not have to waste four or five hours waiting for a 15 or 20 minute consultation.

    I don't mean to laugh at your expense but I had to read that a few times to understand where the car and your GF overlapped, particularly the part about both walking away. Did that mean ye were both in the car when it broke down?

    Hope today goes quickly, the car isn't too serious and the relationship progresses to a place that's best for both of you, together or separately.
