🤗 @Shaz51 Sorry to hear youve broken your wrist and its arthritic - I hope the injections are helpful 🙂💜
I have been on immune modifiers for my problem, and they do come with side effects, but for some people, they work really well 🙂

@Former-Member @Shaz51 I had a 2 min 36 sec telehealth consultation to be told I have heart disease and need bloods done again. Hardly time to blink.

Omg @Dimity
That’s ridiculous.
You’d think that the consultation would go longer. They probably got paid for at least 10 minutes. I would be super annoyed

It felt super dismissive @Oaktree. Thanks for your support, it means a lot.

Was it with a GP or cardiologist? Is there any scope to change your doctor to someone who is going to be a bit more thorough or thoughtful of how the news is going to sit with you. Oh by the way you have heart disease- bye

Oh, @Dimity 😞
I’m so sorry ❤️🩹
Of course that was nowhere enough time to describe to you what type of heart problem/s exist, what tests are needed, what the plan is on return of those next tests, and what - if any - medicine or lifestyle modifications might be helpful in the interim (if known)..!
That is what I’d imagine would be the minimum discussion.
I am really miffed as to how such a brief Telehealth is considered helpful 😞
