To not go to the doctor about illness?

Or - AIBU to ignore my 'symptoms' and hope they go away on their own?

It isn't life threatening. Reasons are:

  1. Treatment is unlikely to be effective
  2. Doctors are busy and I have a different illness they are helping with - don't want to be seen as a hypochondriac

Sometimes i want to moan on her but everyone would just say go to the Doctor!

Oh yes they can! The doctors have so much information/ referral power at their finger tips.

Depression alongside another condition happens a lot, don't let the fact they are seeing you for something else put you off.
