well here we are at home,
got the hubby to come to the doctors on Monday, did not have a good night Friday.
I need to see her as i think i have an allergy, and i am going to see if i can get an appointment at Chapel Allerton hospital as i get the impression my doctors knowledge is the same as mine regarding PMR
Hope you managed to enjoy some of your holiday ,it's very frustrating when you look forward to a holiday and your own body lets you down .Hopefully now you are home it will help yourelax a bit knowing you have an appointment to see your doctor . Carol
Hello margaret.by the the time i have finiished this short post you may have had tucks of replys pred brain?Drs:try to take the info that you have taken from the forums with you & dont be afraid to state your Case YOU are the the one that has more info on this journey than he/she has.Dont be Fobd off.All the Best&Regards to my mate Grump. Dave
let me know how you get on at chapel allerton margaret i will get an appointment there . last time i was thre i had injections for bursitis which only lasted 3 months but i had not been diagnosed for pmr then
Chapel Allerton rheumatology department is probably amongst the best in the country for PMR/GCA - and I would travel miles to see their people. What they don't know about them probably isn't worth knowing.
i enjoyed my holiday, but my hubby is still adamant that we cannot go on
holiday again as he cannot cope with the stress!
hi dave, yes i am going to insist on going to chapel allerton (hope the doctor will listen) as Dewsbury hospital is rubbish, its the 3rd worst hospital my daughter in law who works at sheffield hallam hospital told me not to go there. When i had to go las year after 16mths i got fed up, went to doctor and said send me to bradford please, and within 5 weeks that suspected bone cancer, then thankfully when i went to see the doctor wh dealt with this he said no its not.
then one thing led to another and my doctor did a blood test after my daughter in law suggested i might have PMR ,
regards margaret.
i will let you know pauline im hoping my doctor will refer me.
And YOU don't have any stress? What a delicate little flower...
