Doctor's Callouts

Jade, my youngest, is quite poorly at the moment, having had 2 bad days with diarrhoea and 2 nights of vomiting (today being the worst!!:vomit:), her temperature has gone up slightly and she is very listless - she fell asleep leaning against the sofa! :zzz: She cries when I try to move her and is just a big floppy lump - even Bob the Builder can't rouse her so it must be serious!! Anyway, I rang the local doctors surgery and asked for a callout explaining that Jade is only 22 months old and complaining when moved so I really didn't want to drag her out in the buggy! (DH takes the car to work!) They rang back 5 minutes later telling me that I would have to bundle her up, vomit and everything, and I had 10 minutes to get round so the doctor could check her out. Under no circumstances would they send him to our home!!!! What happens in your area? Am I right to be upset about this? I know that doctors are very busy, but I have had to either wait or reappoint while a GP heads out on a home visit, (and not whinged) so why couldn't they do this for us? And to top it all off, I have a bad head cold and a temperature too!!:gloomy: Please send hugs and healthy thoughts! lol

Thanks, Tracey
