I am writing this after many months of begging my GP to listen after being unwell for 9 months nearly all the same; issues being dizzy unexpectedly at all times; days when I had no motivation no energy; coughing uncontrollably struggling to breath; constantly tired.
Begged to help with weight gain and nothing helping to lose no matter how much I had been trying. I felt I was being fobbed off so many times saying I need to lose weight and myself begging for help I felt un-listened to and ignored no matter how many times I begged to be listened to.
I had been at hospital several times over a 3 week period due to it all and sent home. Unfortunately I never got better and still not. Unfortunately I was eventually diagnosed with diabetes which was informed I should have been months before I was failed and ignored for months. Even after while I am taking the medication as informed to, I still am dizzy and tired and coughing and still not listened to.
It makes me angry and depressed feeling like what I say isn’t enough
