Thank you, I feel awful as I know there are worse ppl the me! And hate the attention but same time feel so alone.
I will use these thank you
@GabstarI know what you mean, I do that a lot and feel like im taking valuable time and attention away from people who need it more. I have to keep reminding myself that there's is always someone worse off, so if only people who were actually worse off than everyone else used these services then they'd have little to no calls. I still do it with a lot of things, even support groups, and still usually feel uncomfortable when I do do it, but it's getting easier as I use more and more services and learn they they are all very willing to help me.
I'm sorry to hear about your flu and kidney infection. It sounds like you need a new GP. My partner had to change GPs a couple of years ago, because she had a scratch on her head that was painful and her GP just gave her some antibiotics and said it will be fine. Turned out she was put in hospital with a very serious type of infection which they said ws potentially lethal if left untreated. Then later that year, went in again about a sore foot and told to wear a moon boot for a week and it will be fine. A bit more skeptical of the GP this time she went to a specialist and discovered she had something called charcot. Fortunately it was early but still had to wear a special boot to take all the weight off the foot for 6 months! Fortunately because it was discovered early she didn't have permanent damage to the bones in her foot. So don't be afraid to change GPs if you feel like your current one isn't helping you.
