Hi Happy, Can you beg and plead with your GP to get in sooner, get on the cancellation list, etc? Waiting that month is tough (I know you know that!). What about expressing a fear that you may have had a stroke? Maybe that would get you in sooner? It isn't such a stretch, I was checked for stroke with similar symptoms as some of yours (along with others) that had clearly developed over time and to me seemed to rule out a stroke (since they were not sudden onset). I am sure you will get that referral when you describe your experience. Wishing you strength-
