Having to go back to the doctors next week because the pain is getting increasingly worse and my meds just aren’t working. Better prepare myself for more crappy tests :/

    @Rose113 hey love I'm sorry you have to deal with this but I'm here if you need me and just try to remember that it's not fun the tests and stuff but it's all to try and find a way to help you as best as possible. You got this and you have me with you all the way hon💖 xx

    @Rose113 I am sorry to hear you are pain. I can understand how exhausting it can be going in and out of GP appointments not seeming to get the results back you're after. Don't lose hope though! Seeking advice from a medical professional is the best way of helping you relieve your pain. It may take a while but just keep pushing for answers and hopefully they will run some different tests that you haven't had before that will give you some answers.

    Are there any coping strategies that you have used in the past that might help you right now? Dizziness is not pleasant so try and lay still until the feeling passes. If the pain gets more severe don't hesitate in calling 111.

    Let us know how you get on in the next couple of days <3

    Hi @Rose113, so sorry to hear this, I know how disruptive it can be when you’re in pain and how it can affect how you feel. Definitely take some time to just chill and rest, know you’ve got the mix here so if you need any help or someone to listen to, you’ve got that.

    Definitely agree with @Orchid059 where if the pain gets worse or anything happens call 111. It may seem a little hopeless at times, but the GP and the doctors there will be trying their best to help solve your issues, let’s hope with whatever happens all is good ❤️❤️

    I'm so sorry to hear this @Rose113 I can see how exhausting the pain must be and how the wait is frustrating <3 Do you have people around you who are able to keep an eye out for you?
