One step closer *insert cheers here*

So, we’re finally getting somewhere. I had an appointment with my GP this morning, I had a pelvic and rectal exam done while on my period today. She found blood in my back passage. The exam was painful but well worth it. Turns out my referral to gyno was ‘urgent’ anyway, despite that I’ve been waiting 13 weeks and not heard anything yet. She’s expedited my referral to gyno with the results from todays exam and my GP is convinced its endometriosis. I’ve been living in this strange limbo for a while, utterly terrified of going back to my GP because what if she decided that ‘I’ve read your file and I don’t believe you anymore don’t come back.’ But she was fantastic.

I don’t think I can express the emotional difference hearing “I believe you, I can see it, it’s not in your head” makes from a doctor.

SO now I'm back on the anti-anxiety meds to deal with the panic, a new pain management strategy, back on amitriptyline.

I just wanted to thank everyone on here for being so supportive the last few weeks, thank you for helping keep me calm and being there <3
