30 years ago i come down with meningitis. After many blood tests a hospital finally came forward and knew what i had, that hospital was north wick park hopice. I also got arthritis with the condition, j also had to learn to walk again. Any way all these years later, ive found that ive struggled through life. I struggle to take information in, i had to have private tutoring just to get my grades to a d level, i cant commit to a job, short tempered, tinnitus, vertigo, headaches/ migraine. Ive always had to be looked after and im now feeling even more anxious than ever. And just wondered if anyone else has is going through this.
