To think my GP shouldn't concern himself in my persona affairs?

takeyourgpout · 2019-08-19 10:00:21

I've just come back from the GP very disappointed and miffed. I asked if I could have some of the strong anti sickness medication I've had in a previous pregnancy with my son. He said he was quite reluctant to let me try that out first since it can be quite harmful to baby, and suggested Cyclozine (didn't work for me before really). I said that was fine but it didn't matter much anyway since I would be terminating the pregnancy soon, so the stronger stuff wouldn't be harmful to me. He said that wasn't the sort of topic or referral he dealt with, and to see a different GP. I explained I wasn't asking him to refer me anywhere, I already had that sorted, I just wanted the medication that he was holding back on giving me on the impression it would be a continuing pregnancy, when it's not. He refused again and said he wouldn't interfere with the pregnancy in any sort of way but was happy for me to see a different GP. Am I being unreasonable to expect him to keep out of my personal affairs? I'm well aware a GP is well within their rights to refuse advising someone on abortion, but I didn't ask for anything like that. I just wanted medication, a medication he wouldn't give because it isn't optimal for a healthy pregnancy. But I don't want/need it to be healthy. I'm a bit upset really and fed up. I've got an appointment for Wednesday thankfully after complaining at reception, who was surprised at the GP's ethical reluctance.
