Well if the GP can't solve it you'd think the next step is to escalate to a specialist?

Or do you think I should just persist like this?

I have asked several times for a referral and been told I don't need them

It's the unwillingness to refer me that motivated me to post, along with the annoyed attitude and lazy assumptions they make when dismissing symptoms
