High Blood Pressure

Well it is until it runs out. Then you have to get a GHIC (Global) HIC card. Despite the name, it is far from global and actually covers less countries than the EHIC did- another bloody Brexit benefit!

Interestingly neither are accepted in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man.

My BP problems started when I found out I had bladder cancer. The waiting for surgery and results sent my BP up to 215/110. My GP surgery in Urmston couldn't have cared less. I went to the Urgent Care and got whisked through pretty quick . 5mg amlopodine daily and now mine ranges from 135/84 to 145/88. The thing that ticks me off is my GP Surgery couldn't give a toss. I send in a weeks readings when its high then have to chase them down to beg for an appointment with some locum who then asks me to do two weeks readings then vanishes off the radar.

My surgery is completely the opposite, they are in top of my issues all the time, they are brilliant, Albion Medical Centre in Ashton, I only joined there last few months as my old surgery was like yours.

Maybe I should move. I now have chronic osteo arthritis in my knee and hip. I really do not get any sense that my surgery has any plan for me . I had to push for cortisone shots . They kindly responded to my last request for an appointment to see what treatment I need by saying I'd get a phone call on 12th June. Urmston GP Practice....
