I visited my GP today to ask if there was anything I could do. He said that unless I could prove that the situation had worsened dramatically, then ... no. So that's it apparently. I can't even reapply. He assured me they would NOT change their minds.
DOH that's terrible! Are there ANY alternatives at all? Can you seek private treatment at all, or does that not exist or is forbiddingly expensive? Since I'm only familiar with privatized health care, I have no idea how a public system works. There are both public and private options, right? I'm like Dawn: even with private health care, I saw a bunch of different docs before starting on appropriate treatment. I can't imagine having to wait 6 months just for an initial visit. Surely there must be some other choice :(
