Hello :-)

Sorry you are not feeling so good at the moment but pleased you have your appointment tomorrow

Make a list of everything you want answering because at the moment these appointments seem like gold dust and let them know how you are feeling and how it is affecting you and hopefully they will come up with a plan that will give you back your quality of life :-)

Let us know how you get on :-) x
