It's better to get appropriate professional advice and support, as medical staff will feel responsibility towards you and the advice and information provided, including how you may respond.
If your GP is unaccessible and you would be in a different area soon, consider visiting an alternative surgery, as an out of area visiting patient. They'll advise and notify your practice of the details. You at least get someone to see what you may be concerned about and appropriate feedback and advice. If anyone has a local GP with good availability, it's an opportunity. You'd need to provide a temporary address within their catchment area that you would be 'visiting'.
There may also be some service available online as well as at NHS centres and via the phone. Your own GP may provide a telephone appointment with you too, if you wrote requesting one, for example.
If it's in any way connected to sexual health, local clinics and the Doctors and Nurses would be very supportive. |

Start with phoning nhs direct, then ask the pharmacy staff. If you have anything that you think needs to be looked at really quick, (if you see a mole that wasn't there a few days before, make an appointment ASAP). |

"My gp's are useless and it takes weeks to get an appointment with them."

If you don't make an appointment it will take a lot longer than three weeks.
What will you do if the (person who claims to be a) health professional who contacts you privately on a swinging web site suggests you see a doctor in real life? |
