I don't think the latter idea will work as it smacks of self-diagnosis which gets up GP's noses! If she is housebound then a house call by the GP is the best bet. You will have to get past the receptionist which may be tricky depending on the surgery mentality of course. If you explain the symptoms as you have described here and more importantly how long this has been going on, then I hope you would get a positive response!
