I had an incident, yesterday, where I had to go and see my GP (I had a similar incident 19 years ago, almost to the day, where I was driving home and a woman stepped in front of my car. I was shaken and my heart was pounding like a keyboard, and I already have palpitations caused by a heart problem. I had to see my GP, and my parents tried calling me at home and when I stepped in the door, my phone rang and my mother said, "We've been trying to call you." I replied, "I had to go to the doctor. I'm all right, I just needed to get some scripts." (The latter statement was partly true.) and I had to see my GP, but I had to wait beyond my appointment time. (I don't mind waiting beyond my appointment time and I'd rather wait two hours beyond my appointment time to see a doctor I do like than see a doctor I don't like because they'll be quicker. I go to a doctor in a solo practice). My father was annoyed because he couldn't ring me. I tried to explain to him that if there'd been an emergency, as he's next of kin, the doctor or receptionist would have rung me and said, "Peter's had a bad reaction to the vaccine, and has had to go to hospital." And, when I go to the doctor, I come straight home, have a shower and put on clean clothes before going out, again. Why? Well, some people who go to the doctor aren't clean, or someone is sick all over the waiting room, as I was, when I was little and had tonsillitis and had a raging fever that my parents couldn't get down, so they took me to the after hours doctor.
