HELLO
Me again! :| I am fed up! Had to go to the Duty Doc at my GP's this morning. I don't know, I think I might as well move in down their! Last night I went to the loo before bed as, as you do, and discovered that I had awful sore pain OHHHHHHHHH
but, worryingly I (sorry) :oops: pee'd blood. Shock, horror.

Anyway, I went to the docs first thing and he tested it and found blood cells and platelets and protien, so its back to the Antibiotics and he's sent a sample to the lab to check the AB's are correct for the infection. :x Havn't felt that good recently, and my aches and pains have been really bad. I think the stress of the last few weeks was to blame and ignored the pain!
Still, I'll soon feel better now. x:-?
Love Suexxx

    Hi Sue

    Glad you went to gps asap and that you have given samples to be tested. I hope the antibiotics he gave you work and that you start to feel better soon.

    Thank you, yes, I do feel a lot better now, I'd not felt myself for a few days and just put it down to depression. I'm lucky our practice always has one of the team working in the Duty Doctor
    role and all you do is ring and tell them you need to see someone that day, and if your docs busy, you see the duty doc. I don't mind for quick things like that, but I try to see my GP for arthritis relaited things, so I don't have to go over all the old stuff again!
    Love Suexxx

    Hi Sue
    You are not the only one to put thing down to depression,I think quite a few of us do this, and think its all in the head.
    Im so glad you are feeling a little better, its good that your GP has a duty doctor...wish ours had.
    You take care of yourself xxx
    Love
