    Oh I realise that, Pathology confirmed that the report only stated Influenza A no strain listed, they had no idea where Emergency got H5N1 from 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think I’ll let them sort it out, still waiting to hear back from the hospital regarding incorrectly prescribed medication from the same visit

    What cheeses me off

    I think it’s been said before but people who are in the ED waiting room coughing up a lung with no face mask on. Waiting 8 hours with a vulnerable relative in a jam packed room every cough filled me with dread. Made a feeble gesture of lifting her arm to cover it.

    What cheeses me off

    Have you considered asking for a meeting with the practice manager? A friend of mine had a “dispute” with an over zealous receptionist which was instantly resolved once the practice manager got involved

    What cheeses me off

    A panel beater once told me especially with hail damage but also other damage to drop by a mechanic or panel shop and get them to give it a quick once over “off the record”.
