One thing after another..

Hi ladies,

So after my disastrous operation follow up appointment, I've been feeling terrible. Really down and having anxiety attacks 😔

I had a black out on Christmas Day, and on Saturday just gone I blacked out again. 10 minutes before I felt quite sick and gone really weak. Anyway I ended up falling onto my knee, and I've chipped my knee cap and damaged ligaments. So currently on crutches and a knee support. Having blood tests done now for low blood count and various other things. I literally feel like every post I put on here is either me moaning or saying I'm fed up. I constantly feel like everything is against me and nobody wants to help. I feel like I've come to a halt since my surgery and that they diagnosed me and that's it..

I dont know what to do from here? The hospital sent me a letter for a "ASAP" appointment and that's in August!! So I've effectively got to wait 6 months for my op follow up as apposed to 6 weeks.

Ellis xx

Oh no so sorry about your knee,

I've just read through a few of your posts, did you get a refferal to a bsge centre from your go?

If you ring your consultant secretary she should be able to send you copy of your op details, that should tell you where endo was found, that way you can find out who should be dealing with you, as certain locations of endo should only be dealt with by a specialist, good luck, I hope the knee recovers soon

Sorry to hear you're feeling rubbish, I feel the same so you're not alone, I just had blood tests too for dizzy, fatigue etc and they came back I had an over active thyroid, so hoping I will improve. Chin up, I feel too that everything is going wrong, it's so frustrating having to wait , look after yourself in the mean time and be kind to yourself xxxx
