Hello
I'm just looking for someone to listen to me please.
I am feeling like such a freak and it's making me very unhappy.
In the last 2 years l have had numerous illnesses all one after another-a heart condition called Atrial fibrillation a horrible intimate skin condition called Lichen Sclorosus, which doesn't seem to want to calm down and osteo arthritis in both hips (one was replaced last August)and now l'm to be referred to a blood specialist because of weird bruising on my fingers and toes.
I think the GP is fed up with me (l'm fed up with me) and my friends and children say things like 'lt always happens to you' which is does seem too. I don't have a partner.
I try not to get upset but l've just spent so much time feeling poorly and thinking everyone must think l'm a hyperchondriac! Which l'm not as these are genuine things, l just want to feel well and normal again.
Is there anyone else out there who's had lots wrong with them?? Thank you in advance x

Both me and my DH have multiple conditions. I'm on holiday from work and I've barely let my bed and don't even know why, butI feel wretched. I know how disheartening it is but sod what the GP thinks - advocate for yourself and make sure any problems are thoroughly investigated and treated where possible. Change GP if needed - I like larger practices where different doctors are available with different expertise. I hope things improve for you soon.

Thank you for answering-l’m sorry that you and your DH are suffering too-some people are so healthy and others not so much.
I have an appointment at the hospital tomorrow for my skin illness and will let them know how l feel. I’m so sorry that you’ve spent your break from work in bed-sometimes that happens when you relax you suddenly go down with loads of physical problems. I hope we both feel better soon xxx
