Do you have medication, if so, maybe it should be adjusted? Other than that, I agree with the previous you should try going higher up in management, or get the news or media involved, they might bring attention to it and put pressure on the building management.
Thanks for your advice since i posted this question,i began to feel offended by the drs not very interested attitude,i got in touch with his employers and asked if they had a complaints procedure........within ten mins i got a call telling me the doc had re- looked over my appeal and decided that this flat "is" a risk to my health,so im pleased and my wife is over the moon. xx
