In 2016 I started to feel really drained and feeling really unhealthy
Every moment with my joints in pain then it eases after a while,
Went to the doctor
Was boarder line thyroid condition was put on medication
It didn’t really help,
About from I did notice a difference in my skin and hair
But I started taking condition tablets once a day,
Anyway year later later I went back to say I was feeling so fog headed
Joints in pain and stiff
Testes came back clear
Then
Retested something else came back clear
She said the thyroid wasn’t retested that should have been
So that was taken again,
Iv heard nothing
This morning iv had to go to the emergency doctors
As iv had a very sore throat for over three weeks
Anyway
He checked my temperature, heart etc looked at my throat
Saying nothing can be done but wait another week if it’s not cleared by then come back
I just feel so defeated why I am not being listened too
So upset and annoyed
I wake up in pain with cramp in my legs for just stretching
My hip is effected as iv a trap nerve in my left foot
Have a constant fog feeling and light headiness
I continue to work ten hours
I catch colds, coughs and had sickness and runs every month
I can’t take sick days to recover as I don’t get paid and will lose my job
If start doing that
I need to be listened too
And I want to change back to my old doctors surgery as I felt they were much more caring and less like I was a timewaster
As for decades I never went to the doctor
"Joints and overall health not being listened to"
