Listeners - patients and doctors - say how they have been affected by the doctors' strike.

As the first all-out doctors' strike in the NHS's history begins in England, the programme asks listeners - patients and doctors - how they have been affected.

Today: we're asking if you've been affected by the junior doctors' strike - whether you're a patient or if you're striking yourself. Ring 03700 100 444 or email youandyours@bbc.co.uk and please leave us a phone number.
The first all-out doctors' strike in NHS history has begun in England. 
At 8am this morning, thousands of junior doctors walked out - not just from routine appointments, but from emergency care. 
They're protesting at the imposition of a new contract from the summer - and this is the first time A&E, maternity and intensive care have been hit.
Have you had a cancellation? Are you struggling to get emergency care? Or are you a medical professional on strike?
We want to hear from you. 
The phone number to call is 03700 100 444. E-mail you and yours at BBC dot CO dot UK, text 84844, or tweet using the hashtag #youandyours.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
