I’m in east London. Despairing at having to sit in local A&E, vomiting, waiting for hours and hours. Does anyone know of any clinics or units in east or central London that I could try and get referred to for easier access to fluids and meds?

Not sure I’m any help but I found whippsX A&E relatively ok for HG. I brought a pillow and picnic blanket so could sit and wait. Asked for multiple sick bowls. Was always triaged fairly quickly (within 2-4 hours) and then given a bed and drip. I’ve older kids so usually go in on a Friday or Sunday night after bedtime and am out at 4am ish. Home to get some sleep before they wake.

I was under frimley who were always so kind even if there was a wait they would try and get my bowls and a bed asap. If they couldn't then they would start the IV with saline and anti sickness asap. Really hope you're better soon x
