because your esea is linked to your steam <| sep |> Had our Echo 2 days , and is destined to replace a Sonos Play 1 that sits right next to it . The echo is having moments a couple of times a day playing Radio 2 where the sound starts to drop in and out then stops all together . The Sonos never does this and it ' s right next to it . Also uses TuneIn for radio . Can turn the Sonos on when the echo is dropping in and out and is perfect . Will probably go back if this is how it is as it will be used as a radio a lot <| sep |> You still haven ' t said what medication was being prescribed originally . Was it coproxamol ? You don ' t need to stick with that GP you can see any GP at any time . It ' s very easy to change GPs . Your story is confusing because it ' s just not possible for the hospital consultant to lock out the GP . The computer systems are not set up like that it ' s literally impossible for that to happen . EDIT I know a lot about NHS system , so if you want to PM me some info I might be able to help more .
