When you have nerve damage like this it is peripheral nerve and would make arms hurt, if its anything like mine( even if its not) you have my sympathy you don't know what to do with yourself at times xxx

I am so sorry for the outcome of your GP's appointment. Hang on in there you are stronger than you know.

I have found people struggling to live be it pain lack of money and facing a bleak future some of the best caring people I know.

I genuinely understand your frustration lack of empathy and trying to manage your life in pain

So many people will read this post will understand your predicament.

Thinking of you and hoping your health and pain will finally be managed and you get the support you need to move on.

It’s got worse now hope I have now put it in the right place this time any way we just need someone to help us and stop massaging about and do the work

they are there for us to get us well has can be not keeping us ill that is what

they’re paid to do has our health is important to us it’s hard for us we are

trying our best to get better the very least you could do is to show us you

are taking some interest in us not saying different things like it’s all in your

head and not putting down what you have said and when you see them

they say don’t come with your symptoms if they don’t want you to tell them

what are your symptoms you have do tell me how they are going to get a

diagnosis and say we are not going to go there when you asked about some

very important symptoms you have I wonder what we should go there with?

I am finding it very hard to know where to go who to see about all we are

expected to put up with come on do a lot better for us please has we all

need you GPS etc help us not knock us down we don’t expect it from you

and you should not need any of us to tell you are wrong in saying that to

any of us if you think you have the right to be like that with people you

are in the wrong and we would be better with out you. Come on let’s

have the right people who are wanting to help us all and do the work it

will better in the long run to have the right people for the work to help

us. Best of luck for us all come on do it for us now we deserve it it’s

about to.

All the best to you all
