I cant even get through to them at the moment, they are closed.

    Do you have a walk-in clinic near by?

    I had to sulk/strop to get an urgent appointment when I wasn't registered.

    Worth trying, and if there's more than one surgery that you could get to, try all of them.

    If you don't get anywhere try a Walk in Centre, while they are staffed by nurses they can arrange for you to see a doctor if needed. You might also get lucky on NHS Direct being useful, they should be able to tell you how to see a doctor.
