Phone call from Endo

Just had a phone call from Endo to say that she can't see me until mid May (GP sent referral mid February!). However she said she has reviewed my blood tests results and I am undermedicated and to increase Levo to 125mcg.

So annoyed that my GP refused to increase it as I knew I needed more but was too worried to increase myself as it would have screwed next blood test results. I have been off work for nearly 3 months as feel so bad and maybe the increase earlier would have helped my recovery. Feel time has been wasted.... So glad I have this group where I can vent my feelings!

Well done her for ringing though, and not just leaving you. That's something. But yes it stinks that we just have to hang around getting more poorly x
