[QUOTE="gemma_T1, post: 1837651, member: 473650"] Hi everyone, thank you all for trying to help me with your advice I really appreciate it. First of all, I tried the GP, no answer to calls or text messages... so will have to just try again tomorrow. Then I went to the A &E but they didn’t have an eye specialist to see me.... everyone’s on holiday. The opticians here only see you to buy spectacles they don’t check the back of your eyes or the pressure etc. just the measurements to order your specs. So, I’m going to ring up the eye hospital I used to be under first thing tomorrow as today I couldn’t get through as the lines were on a loop which cut out after half an hour and you had to start the whole process again. They stop for lunch and go home at 4pm. But they’ll be up and running tomorrow at 8.30 so I shall see if I can get an emergency private appointment and get all the tests done between now and Friday. If I can’t get though by 10 am, I’ll take the public transport system and go in person. I wasn’t well enough to go today and as it takes 2 hours in the heat I just couldn’t face it and thought I’d stay closer to home and maybe resolve everything ... but that was just wishful thinking ... Wish me luck for tomorrow ☘️[emoji256] [/QUOTE]
