If you are not of child bearing years why are you [ usually female] confined to the scrapheap with no investigations, treatment or intervention till probably too late ?! Then they get practitioners directed by insurance companies as by then too much of a risk if your heart & lungs effected as a result so not accessing the most basic of medical & social services .

Sorry, I am not sure how I got this but my husband's first wife had endometriosis and she had a hysterectomy eventually, I seem to remember, which sorted things out. Sadly, the poor old NHS seems to be in a bad way after all these years of Tory under-funding and privatizing! Do you have atrial fibrillation too as that is my only health "problem"? Mine is paroxysmal, so fortunately, doesn't often trouble me. Good Luck in getting things sorted.

Not what you're looking for?
