had a bad asthma attack earlier and ended up at the P.C.T at the Royal Blackburn

do they actually employ doctors at all in that place or is it just full of young student nurses?

we where sat in the nurses room for 45 minutes, just because he felt the need to explain to me what asthma is ( like i didnt know, i've only had it for 32 years) all the while i'm gasping for breath whilst trying my best to listen to him, he eventually listened to my chest and told me i had a cold which had triggered the attack off...i left with a prescription for a new inhaler and a spacer, this new inhaler he gave me wont start working for 3/4 days...i'm still gasping for breath and no better off now than i was before i went...what is the point?

has anyone else encountered anything like this whilst visiting the Primary Care trust?(G.P unit)
