iirc--The freedom of information act (?1987) allows you to see your medical records/obtain a copy of them (there may be a reasonable admin fee charged)
Your medical records may not be altered in any way after the event. New information may be placed in them to amend the earlier information but the earlier info. cannot (by law) be erased.
.............unless anything has changed since I was taught 10 y.ago.

I believe the notes can be added to to show that the items were factually incorrect originally, but if you were to actually remove those items then you may render other (later) notes (and recorded treatment) nonsensical.
