Okay so I'm 19 and during my application process I ran into some medical trouble. When I took my first physical my blood pressure was a little high and it turns out I had a case of white coat hypertension and I'm perfectly healthy now.
However after submitting my medical information they discovered that I was on an anti-depressant for anxiety between the ages of 14-15. So now I have to submit some information on that. The reason why I was on it the start and stop dates and the dosage.
Now this is where the problem comes in. I have to way to access that information. I was prescribed the medication by a psychiatrist through a youth service. I tried calling that place and they told me they only keep medical records for 2 years after I finished with their services and I should go to the GP that was refilling my prescriptions at the time for the information.
So I called up the office of the GP I was seeing at the time and they told me that they are not allowed to release that information and I had to go back to the youth service that originally prescribed the medication.
I call them up and the process repeats and I'm stuck in a loop of no information or answers. I have been trying to figure this out for 3 months.
If I can't obtain the information how can I move my application process forward? This is the last thing I need to complete.
