More medical, or possibly administrative

Dr B won't see me, and I refuse to see Dr C because she has already said that she couldn't see anything wrong with me prior to the perineal repair that meant I regained continence and no longer needed codeine to get through the day. That's unfair - what she said was that although there might be something wrong, she didn't know enough to tell, what with natural varation and so on. So anyway, I have an appointment with Dr D on the 28th, I think, of July.

If she persists in telling me there's nothing wrong, I will ask her what if Rob couldn't have sex because every time he tried he got an excruciating pain in his penis and had to curl up into a ball and cry, instead. There's no male tampon analogy, but the sex one is pretty universal. Anyway practically no-one thinks that being able to take my daughter to swimming lessons while I'm having a period is important. Hah.

Bitter? Me? I'm not bitter. I'm pissed off.

OK, and bitter.

The receptionist didn't know that Dr B specialised in anything - but it's on the website, and the Health Visitor knew.

I loathe GP receptionists, so often they are a barrier to people accessing legitimate medical help that they need. The receptionist should know what specialities the Drs have, especially if that info is on the website and known by other professionals.
