Night god bless all

 

Good morning everyone,how are you all today?

Another great looking day ahead for us all to enjoy, have fun and keep safe and sound.

 

Good morning Upsydaisy and everyone, had my Covid booster injection yesterday so woke with so far just a bit of a sore upper arm I finish a 2pm so I’ll catch you all later

 

Good morning all it very wet here, hope your still getting sunshine off to the happy farm see you all later

 

Good morning @Flumpy and everyone.

Oh dear ,sorry to hear about your weather Flumpy , looking on the positive side at least it's not your day off work.
We are to enjoy yet another great day here ( sorry ).

Keep safe everyone.

 

Yes, Good morning and what a beautiful one too again. The longer this lovely weather goes on the shorter the hard winter we are expecting will be. I am taking the glorious show of berries on the trees and bushes to indicate a hard winter, prove me wrong please!
Have a good day and stay safe and well.

 

Well I'm well and truly fed up now, post has just come and now my Immunology app has been changed to a week later.....and .....now only a telephone appointment!!


What will the outcome of that be .....absolutely nothing!! What can I tell them?? It wasn't until my Dr phoned me in May with my blood test results that I was aware of these problems.. I don't know what the causes are, apparently it could be that my body is fighting an acute issue/ infection....could it be connected with my leg....???
I was under the (wrong) impression that they were going to do some tests, and check me over... not over the phone!!!!!

I had a really bad night again last night and I know I sound whimpy but I can't go on like this much longer the pain and immobility is depressing me now.....and the thought of winter.

I would happily have my leg amputated ...honestly!

Aaawe Upsydaisy I really feel for you, I have a friend who is on her fourth pre op with her leg too, she’s so fed up, I also keep hearing stories off customers how they are being messed around with doctors appointments, it’s just not on, sending my big hugs to you

 

@Upsydaisy I hope something happens soon to get you seen and taken care of.

Just as an FYI, over here we have private labs who do blood tests and the results are securely stored where you can access them online. Some things, no. Results/Assessments from MRI's CT scans, Xrays, we still have to wait to here from out doctor. Lots of procedures such as colonoscopies, endoscopies, are also done by private labs.

These labs are paid through out OHIP, Ontario Health Insurance - like you NHS but on a provincial level. Sure relieves some of the pressure on the hospitals and government clinics but we are still backed up badly due to Covid and a lot of leftover "same old same old" delays.

 

Mine hasn't got even that far Flumpy..I wouldn't mind so much if it had! A year on since I first went for help and still nowhere near a diagnosis!!

 

Thanks Lori but I've been having blood tests every 6 weeks since May to monitor the changes via my GP just now need an Immunology Consultant to decipher the findings or delve deeper to find the cause.
In my dreams they find one that is also related to my right leg issues , treat it and all is good.
Do dreams come true??

 

You know my thoughts on this Dear Sweet Upsy. My heart is always with you. Vxx

 

Thanks Vicky, you've been my sounding board and my rock over the last year, so very appreciative. xx

I was just so shocked to have yet another appointment cancelled/ changed this week! At first I thought it was confirmation of a mammogram that I've booked for 2weeks time, just waiting for that to be cancelled now...they say things happen in 3s.
