Dd had a lot of medical problems, talking I a friend and she asked how she was so I explained our current issues to which se replied "I'd be grateful for a normal conversation once in a while instead of 'dd' health" to which I took that as she was fed up of me talking about her health I told her well u asked and she said ano I bet ur fed up f talking about it and wud rather have a normal convo with people? I am a but miffed because although she explained herself, I felt like she was implying she was fed up f hearing ways happening medically? Aibu?

Bit of both?

Courtesy dictates you enquire how people are. Courtesy also dictates you give cursory answers and don;t go into chapter and verse unless pressed.

Eg:

Q: how are you all?
A: Doing good, X has had her medication changed/going into hospital for another operation

Not everyone one wants the whole caboodle of medical terms. Also as a good friend, I would assume she would think you would welcome respite from perpetually churning out the same in depth story about family life/illness and take the opportunity to leave that behind for a while and become yourself again, with wider interests

I see where u come from but I didn't give chapter and verse she asked how I was so I told her asked her back the she said goes 'dd' doing ? So I explained I'd had a bad night with her oxygen had I I through the vent that's it! There's a minority that have seen my struggle with this, I've been the lowest of the low even SS got involved those that know how bad I've been listen despite me rabbiting on, although they do ask first. She's said it at a time
When I am feeling so low again, I suppose she doesn't no that though :/ but again I still feel very hurt :( conversation has fizzled out now. Many people did this to me on fb so I deleted them, now they keep trying to contact me, I can't win Sad
