I can't get what I need

The surgeon who removed my lung told me I need to have antibiotics to keep in case of emergencies but the surgery won't allow it. I've had to buy some privately but the surgery never give me my results properly from my sputum samples so I don't know which type of antibiotic I should be taking. I called the hospital when I had Covid to see what I should do, they told me to ring the GP to get emergency help. I rang them, they told me I'd be fine and didn't give me any medication. Nurses Trish and Pat balance out the bad service. My spine is crumbling and I need bilateral injections 3-4 times a year which I fund privately. I called to see if I could speak to my usual doctor about getting lidocaine patches to help the pain in-between. I was told he was at Snettisham so I rushed there but it was a different doctor who referred me back to the hospital and I had an injection there in March. I've been told I'm only allowed one a year which isn't enough.
