Hi Livzrawr so sorry to hear you were in hospital at the week end. how are you feeling now.? The same happened to me last year I was rushed into hospital with stroke symptoms it was very frightening.I was finally diagnosed last year after 10 years of many tests not knowing what was wrong with me.finally got sent to see a rheumatologist he diagnosed fibro after yet more tests. hopefully now your gp will send you to see a rheumatologist and hopefully you should get your answear as to whether its fibro or not.I wasnt hopeful when I applied for pip. my husband filled in my forms for me. Then I had a face to face consultation at home with a health proffessional. she was very nice the consultation took 1hr. she goes through each question on the form checking each answear you gave.then she writes a report which then goes to the dwp.its they who decide whether you get it or not. take care gentle hugs
Thanks Kaz, i'm feeling a bit better but my migraines have just kicked in and i'm feeling horrendous with that + joint pain= a very irritated me!
I'm glad you finally got your diagnosis! I hope i'll be just as lucky..
I've asked and the dr will see me next week in regards to fibro and hopefully i'll get a referral soon and i can see if it is or not- even if it's just to rule it out!
Work are also being awkward, saying they may not be able to accomodate me anymore and i might have to leave- but i don't know my rights or anything..
Disability sucks. I'd give anything to go pain free for a day.. I'm 23, how sad is that.. x
Hi
Have you thought about going to see someone at the CAB for some advice on your rights at work?
Also you could get in touch with Welfare Rights. They should definitely be able to help you.
I was bullied massively at work and I am 52! My boss told me he wasn't a charity and unless I got into work there wouldn't be a job there for me anymore.
Like you I so long for a pain free day
Sending you love and hugs xx
Hey Bluebell,
Sorry to hear you were bullied at work- It's disgusting isn't it!
Thank you for your tips, i'm going to see what work say in the next few days and then maybe have to take it up with someone else if they try to dismiss me..
Maybe one day we'll be pain free?
Love and hugs xx
It is disgusting, and so sad it still happens in 2015.
We can but hope one day we'll be pain free
Love & hugs xx
I would go to the citizans advice beauru they should be able to give you your rights work wise. by law every employer should make allowences for you so you are able to do your job. if they dont they are breaking the law. I would seek advice from the CAB hope you soon get a referal and you find out whether its fibro or not. take care
