"Dissapointing"

About: Barnsley Hospital / Neurology

In Nov 2016 I saw a Neurologist at Barnsley Hospital. The Neurologist told me I have Fibromayalgia or ME. They also told me that the best way to cure my symptoms is to forget about them. I was prescribed a medication to try and told they were signing me off. The medication didn't work so I am back to the drawing board. I am 23 years old and am in pain everyday. I am still battling with the NHS to get proper support for this condition they have told me I have.

I am furious at how a professional can tell me to forget about my symptoms and I will not be recommending anyone to this department in the hospital.
