**UPDATE**
Hi all, managed to get a phone appointments with doctor on the 14th October . Explained what was going on with having covid, headaches and sinus since I tested positive on the 3rd of September.
She said it could be a sinusitis or worse case scenario a covid related thrombosis! So she said I should visit A&E! I said is that necessary, she said yes.
So off we went for a night out, 6hrs.
Saw the doctor in A&E, and explained what was going on and about my previous and ongoing sinus issues, she was flabbergasted that the GP could have even suggested a thing. She said it’s obvious what’s wrong with me, I have chronic sinusitis and an acute sinus infection brought on by Covid!
So I’m now feeling quite poorly and have to take 8 antibiotics a day and 4 puffs on each side of steroid spray. She has also said I need to use the steroid spray long term.
I’ve got even less faith in the health service than I had before. If the doctor could have been bothered to see me in the first place, I could have got what I needed days ago and been on the road to recovery now.
I then contacted my GP surgery to request a sick note. I received said sick note only for it to say that I was not fit for work due to a ‘headache’!
That was the last straw, I made an official complaint about said GP, the next day I received an amended sick note and I am now waiting on a formal response.
