[Mr Skrunts]

Normally it seems to take about 3 weeks to get an appointment with our Doctors

Depending on the type of appointments some are quicker and some take longer like a med's review or booked weeks in advance for a check up.

I have Developed a rash around my middle abovemy belly button and has become itchy, rang doctors triage and been told a doctor will ring me within 30 mins (Not a nurse)  Not concerned about it but just thought I would get advice before the weekend.

Wonder whats up with me 

[Sir Tigger KC]

Have you been cavorting with the kind of ladies you wouldn't have introduced to your mother?   

Scabies?  I had that once. Itchy as hell it was!       

I think I got it after staying in a hotel in Mombasa where if they had changed the sheets, they'd been briefly rinsed in cold water which wasn't enough to kill the mites. 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Sounds suspiciously like galloping knob rot to me.

Shame on you, Skruntie.

just looked it up - nothing like that.

I think its just a sweat rash, it was bloody cold the other night and I had the heating on and was under a fleece (On my own) and got a bit sweaty.

Just hope it's not Shingles, wife had it a few years back can be very painful.

As a breakless youth the address and phone number of the 'clap clinic' was well known to myself and my mates of that time.

Since our new medical centre was built here, consolidating all the doctors surgeries (except one), it's impossible to get an appointment. Ever.  Standard answer seems to be use a pharmacy or A&E. Our A&E's are complete arses to get to, being either Oxford or Banbury, neither are compatible with driving to.

Been on meds since for Vertigo Steve, must be a side effect from giving up alcohol,  funny thing is I could drink about 8 - 9 pints & not have any effects at all, yet since giving up I'm having dizzy spells 😂

I told you to start eating and drinking normally again. You can do untold damage by giving up booze and curries. It's a proven scientific fact.....honest

Certainly cannot drink alcohol at present due to the meds I'm on ( Prochloperazine )  they appear to be working they also prescribe these to Schizophrenics  so just hoping no one cuts me up in the Range Rover, because  there's no telling where it could lead.. 😂 Funny enough out for a curry tonight looking forward to it.

[Doctor Gollum]

You have to be a bit careful driving on it too apparently.
