Am I being fobbed off?

[DaliaDay]

Just over a week ago I woke up with an odd sensation in my arm. Went to my GP who said likely a trapped nerve and to watch and wait but come back if it got worse. Persisted for a week and spread to my leg. Went back to GP who did neurological exam. All OK apart from reduced reflexes on the side which is feeling odd. Again, said to watch and wait. Was surprised she didn't want to check my B12 or thyroid etc. Woken up this morning and it is worse again, arm is shaky even from brushing my son's hair. Do I just keep going back to GP every time it gets worse? I am quite worried and feel like they should have investigated when it spread to my leg and did reflex tests.

Go back to gp and ask for a referral and blood tests- if the meantime if you can afford it find a private physio etc to see if they can shed light on the cause.

I hardly ever go to the GP and feel like they're going to see me as a PITA. Just have this horrible gut feeling something isn't right.

If you hardly go to the gp use this to your advantage. Look dr I never need to see you but my gut instinct tells me something is wrong here and I would really like you to start the ball rolling on investigations
Who cares I'd the gp thinks you are batshit you have to advocate for yourself.

Go back to the GP and be persistent.
