    I didnt know what GPs were so the headline made me think of the horrible anti abortion stuff from the US.

    But reading the article im glad to hear that this topic is brought to light. A childhood friend of mine was in the “bedbound” category and its horrible even just to witness. As a man its hard to imagine but being in pain to this degree every month would probably make me depressed.

      I’ve heard if you phone up at 7am each day, you might be gifted with an appointment for that day. GPs are a very rare sight though, I think they’re going extinct due to lack of funding
