A majority of doctors have voted in favour of taking industrial action over changes to their pensions.
The British Medical Association balloted more than 104,000 medics across the UK on the government's plans which it claims are unfair.
Half responded, with 79% of GPs, 84% of hospital consultants and 92% of junior doctors voting in favour.
The union's leadership will confirm its plans later, having previously ruled out a full-out strike.

If action is taken it will be the first time since 1975 that doctors have taken such a step.

I'm wondering just what this means for those of us on waiting lists for non urgent treatment..
Selfish of me I know but still worrying.

Sigh! I guess I'd better find out if I am on the list for that day..and if not how it affects the order of operations..
