Good morning Kaz

You sound a little frustrated with everything.

I feel your frustration today too.

I thought I was doing ok until someone said you

YOUR A MESS!!!!

I replyed I'm doing my best in the situation I'm in.

My memory has definitely got worse.

I had a phone call yesterday and can only remember 2 out of 3 things I was told!!

Had to ring them back as it was quiet important.

Take Care Kaz

Mace xx Deep breathing helps me !!

Hi Mace Charming some one saying to you your a mess, that was nice of them. They want to try being in our shoes if only for  a day se how they got on. I had hospital appointment monday not fibro related he was running late sat waiting was causeing me alot of pain and stressing me out. last night I went to bed felt so ill, would my brain switch off. This is what was going round in my head about waiting all the time. Then the next thing was I started thinking of dark choclate, i hate dark choclate. Honestly wish I had an on off button for my brain.Im no good at remembering stuff especially when its over the phone, I end up having to do what you do and ring them back.take care gentle hugs xx

UM RIDICULOUS , I had to schedule an appointment and the receptionist said the first available date was Janurary10,2016. After she told me this, she then asked if I wanted to schedule the appointment. I laughed and hung up. What ever happen to your sick you see the doctor then  not  later down the road.

10

Waiting is killing us more than fibro... that's whay I try so hard to find SOMETHING, anything that can help. XX

11

I totally agree with you Teressa xx

12

Absolutley ridiculous 2016 ?????? When your sick you normally like to see the dr asap not weeks month year later   

13

I am learning that you stay intouch with the receptionist and stay sweet and kind stressing your circumstances and appointments can be made sooner.

14

its best to be that way towards the receptionist, as if your arsey or rude you dont get no any where.

15

That's a whole heap of our precious time wasted on waiting and just for our Fibro...we should turn our waiting time into hope time..and believe for better days ahead ...being positive really helps doesn't it..:-) xxx

Hi Christine I find trying to keep positive does help, their are days when I struggle especially when Im feeling very low. But when I feel perky I am more positive. I have to say my pet hate is waiting especially if you have an appointment your on time they are running late. I know it cant be helped at times, but it sends my stress levels through the roof. 1 hospital appointment I had I was sat waiting over an hour want amused take care gentle hugs

17

Yea I know what you mean..I once waited over an hour and a half..then when I inquired at the reception...they told me the specialist had been called to the hospital on an emergency...although I thought grr..I then thought, well thank God the emergency wasn't me..that's it isn't it?... we can either go down with it or up...be blessed Kaz, hooe you having a lovely day..over there.. :-) xxx.

18

O' poor you..I just don't understand waiting soo long to see a dr when your sick now!!!!! Can't you get another one who can see you sooner? Be blessed...try not to stress too much..it's really bad for Fibro ...but the powers that be seem to make us stressed at times..:-) xxxx be blessed, have a lovely day..

19

Amen..:-(
