Hello all,
I recently saw information which maybe I shouldn't have on my patient page on my gps website [at my gp you book appointments online and have access to your gp's notes]
The information listed my diagnosis and condition as much more serious then I understood it to be and more serious than has been discussed with me. They state that the psychiatrist believes he will have to section me. Obviously I'm not very happy about this.
It has made me wonder a lot about all the other notes on me that I don't see and I am now considering asking to see my notes.
So my questions to the forum are
1. If you were me would you choose to view your notes
and
2. Have you ever looked at your own notes, was it helpful to do so
thanks very much if anyone has the time to respond
