2yo can't go to GP because she had a fever!

[grey12]

I keep getting shocked and shocked about everything to do with coronavirus. It is getting tiring....

DD2 got a flu and had a fever a few days ago. GP seemed pretty certain it wasn't coronavirus and we couldn't get a test at all.

Last night she had a terrible night crying and hardly sleeping. Possibly a ear infection. She has had a runny nose so could be from that.

I find it strange how a GP refuses to see a 2 year old because she had a flu! She's talking but still a toddler and she can't communicate fully especially when she's in pain. There is so much you can explain on the phone...

On that note she's having a physiotherapy appointment by video call!!! she's running funny. I wonder how much can be properly seen through a video call!

I totally agree with you op. Its getting ridiculous, we can go shopping, out for food and drinks, work etc but can't access healthcare.

Try calling 111 for advice. They booked my dd at the nearest walk in centre and she was seen by a doctor, even though he only actually saw my dd to look at a rash, the rest of the consultation was done in separate rooms on the phone to each other.

Hope your dd feels better soon xx
