Know most aren't interested in this but kinda makes me feel better writing it so: Back from GP she was not impressed by "substandard care" but that's another issue. Poked me about, made the right noises. She's not happy with everything going on so referring me to hospital for CT scan (sounds familiar!) and to non-surgical consultant this time, said they'll probably do endoscopy too at that point and she also want liver function tests done which I've booked for Tuesday as ultrasound showed some fatty deposits in my liver (so something else we need to address, as she doesn't think it's related to this problem). I've already started on that with change of diet trying to shift some weight anyway, I've lost about 6kg in last month so that's a result lol. Signed me off till Christmas though :O Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
Another update: Worst day so far feel even worse, terrible headache all day then ended up being sick all day, despite not having eaten anything for 18 hours. Managed to crawl out of bed for 2 hours this evening and eat a little chicken and rice took me 2 hours to eat it. Got Drs tomorrow for liver function bloods going to phone first thing and say I need stronger painkillers as I can't cope like this anymore it's just too much Sent from my Sony Xperia Z1
I really hope they sort you out soon Rich, it can't be much fun being in such pain and not knowing why! Please accept the best wishes of all of us here on the forum!
Thanks Dave, you're right knowing what the problem is would be half the battle, as it is there's the constant worry at the back of your mind of is this going to kill me. I'm considering borrowing the money for a private ct scan Sent from my Sony Xperia Z1
Christ Rich, I really hope that you can get yourself sorted soon, its crazy in this world of technology that they can't get you sorted. Best wishes mate, try as hard as it might to keep your chin up.
I can only echo these sentiments, hope you're doing ok fella and that they can sort you out and have you back on your feet soon
Me too, Rich. It must be so distressing that they can't at least diagnose what's causing you all the pain so that steps can be taken to treat it. The very best wishes for a swift recovery.
Cheers fellas, GP wasn't best chuffed this morning got on the blower to hospital, heard surgeon on phone say and what was outcome of his hospital stay last time she said: "Nothing it was completely unhelpful" Made me smile lol. Anyway long story short after sitting in waiting room for 3.5 hours at N&N consultant wants me in tonight and wants a CT scan done in the morning. Hopefully it happens this time.... Yeah worst part even worse than the pain is, is this something trivial or is it gonna be life threatening? Just hope this scan shows something Sent from my Sony Xperia Z1
Finally got dye to drink scan soon, huge relief just that news. Just got to worry about the results now... Sent from my Sony Xperia Z1
