I hope so, tried getting a GP appointment earliest Monday 15th 3.40. Considered the local walk-in, but they would only sent me to A&E anyway. I know it's not ideal but it hurts.

Just found out another friend is splitting up with his wife - that's 3 in the last year. We are stuck in the middle of one break up as we are friends with both, but the 'fella' has become increasingly menacing to his wife, and he was the one that ran off with a younger model (20 years younger).
Such a sad thing. This other mate has two kids that have life threatening conditions and require regular hospital admission. I believe the marriage can't be saved, but he is devoted to his kids. He's an ex. cycling club member that I've known over 30 years, and these days, if he goes out, he hits the road at 6 am and is back before the kids get up.

That's what think too, but they might give me a steroid injection as a temporary measure.

It's a GP appointment first, then referral to a specialist. Like has been said, it's usually surgery to fix it if it won't go away. The good news is that it does work - my mother in law has had both hands done. Get a GP appointment and ask for a referral, it's certainly not A&E as they will send you away. Ibuprofen or diclofenac (volterol tablets) should temporarily help. A&E is for body parts falling off or packing up !

May give you a chance at early diagnosis and a solution to your problem. My local HMO here in the States is currently backed up three weeks, and I have some sort of problem with leg circulation(congenital?). So l'm waiting three weeks to see a physicians assistant who will probably refer me to a specialist who probably won't see me for another three weeks or so.

I've just pumped the tyres up on my bike
Are you going to ride it, or is it to stop you dinging the rim in storage ?

....and I thought that it was just the NHS in the UK that you had to wait weeks to be seen! ... Good luck with yours, hope it all get cured.
