I will succeed!!!
I've been to the Dr's now 3 times in as many weeks about my tummy problems and they're awful!
First Dr was lovely (he usually is) and gave me some pills to see if it was acid related. The pills made me feel worse, so I went back last week to tell them. The problem where I go is that you get whoever is free, so I got someone new. She was terrible. It was a case of 'stop with the pills and come back in a month (!) if the pain continues'.
Anyway, been worse this week so went tonight and saw ANOTHER Dr who was rude and made a joke about me being back and was I worried did I have cancer!!! She tried to fob me off when she realised it was star week this week. I put foot down and said 'I'm 26 and have had periods for 12 years. I can tell the difference'.
So she said I can have bloods taken next week to see if anything shows up.
But I was so mad that I popped in to see my neighbour who is a GP. I never did this as I didn't want to bother her with medical stuff you know? Anyway, she as so lovely and said that I'd been looking 'pale and tired' of late and she wondered why the other day when she saw me. She gave me some wee sticks and told me to run round with them asap to see if it shows anything, and to try some IBS relief from Boots. She also recommended I change my Drs surgery as when she heard where I go to, she rolled her eyes and said 'figures'. She doesn't work where she said, so it wasn't a commission lol!
She said what to look out for and what to try to ease it. And that if I ever feel worse to go round and see her. I won't though as they have two toddlers and I don't want to abuse her! LOL!
But it was nice to see how different she was to my surgery.
And given work stress of late it makes sense it could be IBS as she said stress can set it off big time.
Feeling happier now, though still got tummy ache!
