Squeaks CBT appointment book for 30/11 ... 9 days... we can make it that far right?!Drs surgery is useless.. I ask them to send me ALL my blood results.. they sent 4.. that does not give me enough information to make an informed decision on my own body.. honestly.. is it so hard? You have info about me.. give me it.. Minimal info to try to make me do what they want which has quite the opposite effect on this rather stubborn capricorn!! lol I have now sent a reply asking for ALL the results and if some of them have ever been done as they are relevant to my daughters medical situation.. such as is Twinkles thyroid stuff hereditary? completely different? Another type entirely? Do we need to look at other conditions or could this be 'stand alone'? It is need to know information.I also pointed out that I gave up trying to get appointments because there are none by the time I can get through and the hospital are not much better.. I received a letter saying one dept had received the referral and 3 months later they sent a discharge letter to the surgery.. nothing in between! But of course it is my fault for not going to an appointment they never made... and my fault the medication doesn't work for me like it does for other people.. I'm so special.. clearly! I think they get so used to the mundane they forget people are individuals! Anyway.. they are supposed to be ringing at 10 in morning to tell me I MUST take another medication I will not take but I have an alternative I have researched which may be better.. and if they won't give that I'm not trying any.. and I also cannot wait for them to tell me to 'stop smoking/eating garbage' etc.. I live primarily on rice and fish and turkey.. it is very boring.. weirdly eating rice, turkey and fish means I feel less unwell and don't snack so much in the evening.. it is quite odd.

Pigpen I was so relieved when I found a doctor who listened to me when I had thyroid problems and accepted that I wasn't responding to the medication in the way that other people did but thats OK because I am human and not a machine. I dread the next review because I know the level of meds that I need to feel well but it doesn't fit with their charts.
Another 11.5 hour day yesterday but only 9 hours today. Tiredness is setting in. I asked a member of staff to do something today and when she later asked for help I couldn't even remember what I had asked her to do. So much going on.
I have changed our bed and the kitchen is clean and tidy. My finances are a bit of a disaster and I need to crunch some numbers.12 -

Just woke up! What is wrong with me???? I literally can't sit down on the sofa without conking out!
Kitchen tidied, dinner made and a load bunged in the WM.
Hopefully all my spoons were put to good use elsewhere while I was snoring...12 -
