Thanks for all the replies

Going to try and get an appointment with a different doctor this afternoon... but now I just have to get past the 'security guard' on the phone. It seems they're reluctant to book same day appointments unless you're on your death bed and they won't allow you to pre-book. You have to ring up at either 8am or 2pm and then shoot down there to see the Doctor. As if I'm not stressed enough!!!!

I'll let you know what happens... already feeling sick with nerves! :S
