Medication review request ( why bother )

I had a GP appointment on the 1st of April with Dr fuad, she had a colleague with her who was typing. I explained to them I had stopped taking one of my medication a couple of months ago ( against medical advice ) I had stopped them as I was no longer willing to sign a form every 12 months saying I understand the risks to a fetus if I become pregnant. I explained to them that it was because I found it traumatic due to being given false information when I was previously pregnant ( I was told it was safe ) instead of putting my reasoning she put that I was concerned about pregnancy related side effects, ( didn't put that I called out my previous consultant for withholding information on the dangers of my medications, then there is ongoing court cases around the drug ) I am 49 years old single I have a contraceptive implant. I am not planning to get pregnant and also I think it might be a little late for that. All I wanted from the appointment was to have a medication review. I needed someone to explain the side effects and how my medications react with each other. This is something I have asked for multiple times ( and should have on a regular basis ) but have not been able to have. I was referred to a social prescriber which the referral forms has her reason for referral as mental health and loneliness!!!!!!! I WANT A MEDICATION REVIEW THAT IS NOT LONELINESS OR MENTAL HEALTH.
