[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 305100, member: 1991"] Serious suggestion - apologise. But do it conditionally. "I am sorry I got testy with your receptionist, I was in a lot of pain because I had let the Tylenol script run out." Go in to see him, make an appointment (if you can) but AFTER you send the letter.Don't say anything about your suspecions of psycho neighbour saying bad things. (been there done that) Also - psycho neighbour can say what he likes about you to the doctor, it's only if the doctor talks back to psycho neighbour about you, that he is breaking the rules. After all, you told the doctor about psycho neighbour, didn't you? (with reason). I'm thinking, he's been finding the whole situation challenging, to say the least. So write and apologise to the reeptionist for you being testy. Blame it on pain and stress. Ask for a second chance and promise that if he wants you gone as a patient, you will be arranging for transfer to another GP as soon as you can, but given the vital importance for you to have continuity of medical care (given your MS diagnosis) that perhaps he could be lenient with you while you arrange for a new GP for an appropriate handover. It should be possible for your medical files to be scanned as PDF and kept on file until they can be passed on to your next GP. In the situation you describe, to threaten that your entire (and important) medical history will be wiped, is holding your health to ransom. OK, he's being an oversensitive and incpometent idiot, but you NEED a GP. So sorry - humble pie time, even if he is wrong and you are right. Marg [/QUOTE]
