Still not had my vaccine

Hi, I went to get my vaccine 6 weeks ago. When I got there, they asked me if I’d ever had anaphylaxis issues, which I had a severe anaphylactic shock 12 years ago which required 2 shots of adrenaline and a hospital stay. The cause was unknown. I suspected I was spiked.
Anyway, I had to mention that to the nurse. So she got a doctor who agreed it was best not to give me either vaccine and to talk to my GP.
So o spoke to him a few days later, he said I could probably have it down under controlled conditions in the hospital and to leave it with him. I’ve heard nothing since. I have phoned my doctors who said they would get him to phone me. He hasn’t. They couldn’t tell me anymore and just to wait.
I’m really worrying cos so many people around me have got covid now, and I’m meant to be going to butlins next week. I just don’t know what to do. Obviously even if I had the vaccine now, it would be too late for my holiday. I will have to extra careful. I’m also going to uni in September, which I’m worrying about incase I still haven’t had it done! Has anyone else been in the position of past allergy issues?

I have anaphylaxis and they had me in a separate room with the Dr next door, epipen visible and had me wait 30 minutes instead of 15. It is possible! Maybe call again?

Thank you for your reply. Yes I will try again tomorrow. Which one did you have? Pfizer?
