Short version is that I went to A&E with dizziness, unable to walk unaided, stomach pain, temp and feeling worse than I have ever felt, and granted, a tad of anxiety.

Was told I was having a panic attack and asked if I wanted to see mental health worker.

Next day GP says I have severe gastroenteritis.

I know they have a difficult job etc etc and it wasnt life threatening, but am very miffed at the way I was treated.
