Just that really??
but its the 2nd time recently where I've had a similar problem, though last time round it caused more stress rather than actual illness
Background - several weeks back I started feeling very ill - more so than is normal for me & due to my previous medical history, recognised the symptoms as Kidney infection - I have some damage on my kidneys from past recurring infections - Saw GP (not my usual one) & he prescribed Anti B's & sent off a test to confirm.
I rang several times for test results, but due to being very ill & struggling to cope with DD who is on crutches right now, so needs most things doing for her - I forgot to keep ringing for the test results
On taking DD in for HER appointment - I remembered to ask - by this time I've been ill for weeks, REALLY struggling & starting to worry as nothing I do seems to shake it & I do have other health problems, & anything such as virus etc will cause flare up , so ALL of which are worse right now - I'm running in zombie mode
Receptionist pipes up - "Oh your GP has left a note to get you to organise an appointment - she needs to speak with you" - but won't give me any more info - can't get an appointment with MY GP for over a week - so see another
Turns out I've been given the wrong antibiotics & I DO still have a kidney infection -
Now my AIBU is - no body rang to let me know, but I've been too ill to remember to keep ringing - kidney infections do that to you - surely they should have rang me??? -
if they had I would be well by now, instead I'm facing organising DDs birthday party when I'm feeling like total shite - I'll get through it, as you do - but it P's me off as if they'd rang me I would be fine by now & not dreading it :(
AIBU to expect a phone call to let me know I need to see a GP - or don't they do that any more??
Thanks :)
