Hi, Hope every one is well.
I just got to have a moan about my Doctors.
Last year I had a miscarriage .I did not know I was pregnant and it was not planned. I only found out when I went to the doctor with horrendous back pain. A few days later I had the miscarriage.
Anyway since then I have been ill and the doctors at my surgery have been completely incompetent.
I have always had heavy periods but since the miscarriage they have got really bad. I can go through 2 long night towels together in a few hours and still have really bad leaks on cycle day 2/3.(sorry tmi).When I was working one day it was so bad I had to go home as my jeans were soaked.(good job they were black!)I had to leave my job because of the way they were with animals but also because I was just getting more and more ill. Am so tired all the time, real dark cycles round eyes,probs breathing, stomach aches....I get the odd day where I feel okish but most days are bad.I then start getting bleeding on cycle day 13/14 for 2 3 days which just makes me feel worst.Even my friends have noticed the change but they just think its my asthma.
Anyway I go back to the doctors to find out the best doctor ever has moved to Australia.He was brilliant.So I then book to see another doctor who did not seem at all fussed about my problem but still sent me for a scan and a blood test.The hospital did a scan and said nothing is wrong. Only thing they see is I have a heart shape womb. Well I wait to hear about blood test.......and nothing.
So again I book in to see a doctor again, this time a lady who just told me my iron level was a 4 ,to just eat loads of meat and veg and oh shouldn't I try to conceive as I be 36 soon.
Not one word about the bleeding .I was like w.t.f!
Not impressed I see another lady doctor who just told me to take iron tablets, and lose weight.(I put 4 stone on with steroids and a shoulder op)again no concerns.
I then book to see a nurse at the surgery. She was livid with the other doctors. Said my breathing is bad because of iron level,which is then making my asthma bad.She was annoyed no one had sent me for more tests or exams.She said she will get me to see another doctor about an exam.I told her my fear of people prodding me (due to very bad things that have happened in my past)and she said she seen notes on my file and will tell other doctor and try and see if I can be put to sleep for exam.
Anyway go to see new doctor who turned out to be the most un sensitive bitch I have ever met! She started asking questions that on my file says do not ask,she said I prob got cancer ,I cant be put to sleep for exam and she was just so nasty I was in tears.I did not go to 2 hospital appointments because I was so upset.
In the end I went back to see the nurse after pulling myself together after weeks of stress.She was so angry at doctor. She said I prob got fibroids. My mum had these at my age and had to have a hysterectomy .She also said the hospital said I could be put to sleep because of my fear.She said she would have a word with other doctor why I didnt go to hospital appointments and ask her why she said things she shouldn't etc.Well that nasty doctor still sent me a letter digging at me about not going to my appointments at hospital.I have not been able to sleep well because of her,been getting nightmares about past etc. I feel that a years treatment for post traumatic stress was undone by her in 5 mins .
SO nearly a year on I've been from one doctor to another, looking as ruff as hell ,and have shares in sanitary towels lol. I have finally got another appointment at the hospital this week that the nurse sorted out.Been wanted to ttc (sway girl) for so long now.Lets just hope something is sorted.Thanks for reading.Just had to get it off my chest.Anyone else going through similar ?
