I feel like I'm at my wits end..cant cry because the medication I'm on for depression won't allow it. Just feel like I'm being fobbed off. I've been signed off for the op by the hospital. I was told that I needed to get my blood pressure under control which I have. Today I have found out that I'm not even on the urgent waiting list. His secretary advice me to go back to my GP and ask for an urgent referral. Otherwise I will have to wait three months just to see the consultant. I have told them I want a second option. Living with this pain and bloating is driving me mad. I'm also having to fight for money with the ESA as they are trying to stop my money. I can't work like this... The picture is of my stomach. How bloated it I.. Doctor gave me buscopan

I have found that diet plays a big part with my stomach/bowel issues i try to eat well/healthy lots of veg and i try to stay avtive to try and help with pain i asked my consultant yesterday what i can do in terms of the bowel issues as they are a nightmare and she basicaly fobbed me off and said ask your gp or just go to the pharmacy and ask for an over the counter remedy.... very helpful ...not

Hi go back to your gp and ask them to make another urgent referral. Buscapan doesn’t work, drink lots peppermint tea, sounds silly but it actually works better, well does for me x
