Is it possible? My tonsils are taking over my entire mouth and have lumps on so think I might need antibiotics as they are getting worse rather than better. I'm currently away in Scotland cycling around 100m a day which probably isn't helping proceedings. Anyone know if there's anything I can do or do I just live with it. I don't want to get properly ill and have to come home yet  |

pretty sure you can just walk in and get an emergency "sit and wait" appointment in most places. |

Yep, as Chris says, you can turn up at a surgery and been seen as an emergency. |

Phone NHS 24 when you get to Edinburgh and they should tell you where nearest out of hours GP is and organise for you to be seen. On a weekday, you could probably show up at any GP surgery and they would try and get you a temporary resident appointment. |
