Ignorance is bliss! 1700 people were killed on UK roads in 2012...

After complaining I seem to have been assigned another AME who seems to have a good work ethic. He even phoned me the other day!!!!

Hopefully I will get this all sorted out before I get kicked off the FPP. The impression that I've gained in the last six months is that it seems to be run much like a flying club for retired GP's

I too was told I had a high blood pressure reading and had to get my missus to take it again when I got home. Her take was that they hadn't followed the hypertension society guidelines for measuring blood pressure. On their website it clearly says you should be in a sitting position and wait at least five minutes without speaking before recording the pressure. Mine was taken lying on the couch with no warning.

I was always brought up to respect those in authority and that would include doctors however this experience will make me a far less 'compliant' patient in the future...

Thanks for the supportive comments, I won't give up!
