Hi so I’m so stressed as I spoke with my doctor after being fobbed off on a number of occasions. I demanded with the support of a friend to be referred to a top neurologist. I was rejected so said to the doctor that I wanted to see what he had written . Although it was written professionally he had not written it in my favour and I believe it was coded. I strongly believe this . Anyway I have recently switched practices and now I am waiting to make an appointment but I am worried that on top of everything I will have to convince doctors that I have the symptoms and deal with a range of scepticism. Additionally , I have completed the test on here and there is a high probability that I have fibromyalgia. I have nearly all the symptoms but what do I say when I meet the new doctor? Hello I think I have fibromyalgia or do you keep quiet and give them a list of symptoms in the hope that they will join the dots . I’m in constant pain and their questions when I see them are difficult given the brain fog and memory issues that I have . I’m so depressed lack confidence in my ability to communicate with sceptical doctors yet I’m sitting here with depression, urinary incontinence, back ache, stiffness in my joints , constipation etc and brain scans which come back positive and pain being put down to wear and tear . All I want is someone to see my symptoms as a whole rather than individual things happening to my Body . I’m so down right now but aim to see the new doctor next week . On a B positive note I have been given a date for 6 weeks of physio to deal with pain . But again have no diagnosis for what is happening to me !!! Thank you for reading this
