Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hi Sheila, thanks for reply, if I get a diagnoses from Dr Peatfield, is it usual that a NHS GP will accept it so I can get treatment in the NHS? Am I right in thinking that Dr Peatfield isn't a registered GP anymore? My GP won't accept anything that isn't NHS related, presumably believing the NHS know everything ha ha, he won't even look at information off internet written by Doctors. I don't want to be in the position where GP dismisses everything Dr Peatfield says, I would like some kind of 'team work' although maybe that's asking too much where my GP is concerned. I know I should be going back to GP after lab didn't do T3 and T4 tests as he requested and asking him to sort it out but the idea fills me with dread as all he keeps saying is to wait for hospital appointment because he has no idea what to do with me basically, he's admitted he's at a total loss and even worse is he says he gets lots of patients like me that come to see him with a list of symptoms and blood tests don't show anything, which is very worrying. I want to complain but because he's referred me I can't because he can't be classed as negligent and lab will get the blame for messed up blood tests even though doctor should of chased that up without me having to go and point out to him they weren't done. I want to change to another surgery but then it might be even worse and probably wouldn't be taken back. Sorry to moan, feel like no one on my side, my husband is fed up with me, my mum thinks I'm a hypochondriac, my dad thinks I'm just lazy and my mother-in-law thinks I'm nuts. It might sound sad but sometimes I think my only friends in the world are my cats and my guinea piggies.

The best thing to do is to print out his Questionnaire, complete it and send it off to him as soon as possible . Go to our Website www.tpa-uk.org.uk and click on Dr Peatfield's clionic update in the right hand column and then click on the Questionnaire. At the same time, ask him for a telephone consultation. That will give him all the background information he needs about your medical history. If you have the results of any blood tests, send them with the questionnaire too so he has a full picture before you speak with him. He keeps Wednesday free so he can talk on the phone as his days are very full. luv - Sheila Hello everyone, can anyone tell if Dr Peatfield will do telephone consultations, for initial consultations. I see on his clinic relocation info he has 'happy telephone days' on wednesdays? I live in Leicester so it's quite a long way to go to see him. Ruth.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Hi Shelia I am in need of a little help I went to a chirpractor yesterday, usually helps with my neck problems. She was telling me I needed to stand upright. I was saying its too painful and making me dizzy. End result I collapsed in her room. She did do the treatment but! This morning I am still so bad, tired, headache, neck and shoulder pain. My pulse has been high 97 some days and I am getting nowhere, so today I have not taken any T3 result I still feel as bad but my hands are painfully cold again. I keep going up and down on cortef as it seems to make no difference and I am just not sure what to do. This can not be good for me. I am just at my wits end, I was looking at Dr Peatfields clinics but there are non in the near future I can get to. Do you know if I could have a consultation by phone, and how much this would be? Any help appreciated. Caroline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Hi Caroline I am really sorry to hear that you are having such a bad time of things right now. I would call Dr Peatfield because he does do phone consultations. I honestly cannot remember the price, but he will tell you this, or, if somebody else is aware of the charges for phone consultations please let Caroline know. When I was bad with pain in my lower back especially, I also used to go to a Chiropractor, and to be honest, every visit I went I came out feeling so much worse than when I went in. I ended up with legs like jelly and feeling extremely weak, almost unable to hold myself up. He told me I was the only one who had mentioned this, but I think when it lack of thyroid hormone that is causing you these pains, going to a chiropractor simply doesn't help.
