I've just phoned docs as I have what feels like a fight every month for my meds. We haven't asked for RA which is bad enough but having to fight and have problems put in our way makes it worse. Don't let them leave you 6 months with nothing, how would they live with RA and no meds. Get back on that phone as previous reply says.

Hi Laura, if I were you I would phone again and ask if you misheard surely they are not going to leave you for six months. Get on the phone and be assertive and tell them you need an appointment sooner. Wish you luck and take care.X

hi laura can you phone your rheumys Secretary. get a call back from your rheumy or gp to call them.

they can't leave you for 6 months due to the ra attacking your joints.
