I can't even spell the full name and it's to do with your jaw can be brought on with anxiety so that's where mine has came from! Yeh it was so painful first and last time for a&e was sat in the corridor for 4 hours on a bed!! Xx

Yeah im doing ok had a few mania episodes then some depression episodes im gonna go back to gp to discuss those. At least you got a bed in hospital lol all I got was a chair and it wasnt even that comfy to be honest hahaha. X

in reply to lauren23

The hard chairs in a and e are horrendous. I'm the same sat waiting for almost 5 hours one night. I think the best way is to phone nhs 24 and they give you a proper appt time to save the very long wait!!

How you doing Lauren? 🌷

Aww no! Has your doctor put you on anything yet?? I've been going out my head thinking I've got MND so I told the hospital and he done me a strength test to reassure me and he's putting me in for a ct scan but because I'm only in my first trimester I got to wait a few weeks! I was suprised I got a bed it was so busy in there! The lady who done my bloods was awful got massive bruise!! Xx
