Visited my gp on Monday expecting to get a pat on the head and a prescription for omeperasol, instead I walked out with an urgent two week referral to hospital for investigations. (Barium meal and a colonoscopy) Was a bit taken aback and never really questioned him on it, he did mention achilasia but that wouldn't warrant an urgent referral. Reason for me going was that every time I eat my food gets stuck behind my breast bone and it's getting worse, some regurgitation if I eat past my limit etc.
Any thoughts? I have cancer running about my head. Had a breast scare last year and the thought of getting on that train is making me a bit wobbly.
Thanks.
