Default I need some advice.
I really messed up. I missed my appointment at the renal clinic, because I thought it was next week.
Now I'm scared that the hospital won't want to see me anymore.
I need constant blood tests and monitoring.
I'm so worried!

I did, they said that I have to wait for them to write to me.
If they don't want to see me anymore I'm in big trouble

I'm so stressed about this. Not really helping my mental health at all.

It's no problem if you miss an appointment here or there, especially if you are apologetic about it all.

I did the same thing with a chest scan about a month ago, and have it booked in again for a couple of weeks time, so you'll be fine.

The doctor really doesn't like me. I doubt they'll agree to see me again.
I'll have to go back to my GP. What a disaster!

A doctor not liking someone doesn't equate to them deciding who does/doesn't get access to healthcare.

You need to call them and deal with it though, rather than worrying about it and putting it off.

I would say just try and get a new appointment, there's no reason they shouldn't let you unless they just want to be awkward.

If they reject me I have to ask my gp to refer me again. And if they refuse to do that then I'm in trouble.

You're not the first person to forget about an appointment, and if they just left everyone who does so to die, the average life expectancy would be about 60!

I think we actually give doctors too much respect at times
Good and bad people in every job and there are people that definitely shouldn’t be in some jobs .

We have all heard the saying it’s a post code lottery when it comes to health care.

Stop worrying Vanessa, you missed an appointment that’s all.
They will write to you with your new one.
If you don’t like going to the renal clinic for your monitoring then maybe your own doctor can arrange for your regular blood tests there or the local blood clinic. Your results would be sent on to the renal clinic the renal clinic could check on you less.

Thanks. I can't help worrying. And I know it was all my fault
