Unhelpful Endo. It's several years that I am getting top heavy. Gathered courage and ask the consultant for help got totally ignored, not even mentioned it in his letter to my GP.
In the past have told GP to say oh it's only tissue. it's uncomfortable and embarrassing.
I am quite sure it's to do with my hormones. I am now disable as result of spinal cord injury fractured spine and Hodgkins lymphoma. can't get dressed properly always have to cover myself with scarf. I am depressed and this is extra burden.

A relative of mine is getting a breast reduction, they've ok'd it on the proviso she lose a few more pounds of weight. It was affecting her back and shoulders and her professional and social confidence. She struggles to breathe at times.
My best friend had a breast reduction a few years ago. She was always slim though but with very large beasts, hereditary. It can be life changing, for the better.
Thanks. I am 85 and with what I have at the moment I can't imagine my GP to entertain it. Specially after last Anaesthetic 2 years ago when my spinal cord was damaged causing Tetraplegia. We complained and ended up forcing me out of hospital without rehab or indeed follow ups. I was referred to a surgeon 3 years ago my GP ignored the referral.
I am so sorry to hear that. When I lived in the UK the GP missed my eye problem 4 times and I lost the sight in it. Also when living in the UK my GP missed my UTI I landed up on 7 months of Antibiotics and now have a kidney problem. My sinus op was also botched because of this I now have an Ear Tumour, so not great either. Luckily I am living in France which is great for anything to do with health. Now nearing 77 years old so lucky to be here I suppose. Could you not sue the Hospital there are companies that do it for you FOC. or have you run out of time.
Thanks for your support equally sorry you had this unnecessary suffering because some know it all don't listen to their patients. Yes i have tried twice because every one said the same things. But, it is not the Q of amputating the wrong foot, it's the Q of proving the 2 tests which is time consuming and most of time it falls in the hands of the paralegal and falls into the bin.
I tried to go to Germany, they were not accepting new patients due to their list like here.
you are right about France. Before the exit from EU friend of mine did just that, being told in the Uk that it was impossible to operate on his spine. He went to France and was done with no fuss.
