Hi,
I'm in a "free" health system, which means it is free if you can get it!
Everything here has to go through your GP, while she tries there is little one can do if they offer only excuses why not. I refuse to pay for something I have a right to free.
Generally I'm a fighter but there comes a point at which it is pointless with no gain to be had.
I have to be mindful that there is no cure and no known treatment for Dysautonomia which is the major health issue. The CKD, T2, IBS and the rest of my health issues don't bother me in the slightest compared to the dysautonomia, it has taken over control of the bladder, bowels and digestion permanently with the other symptoms being random and debilitating throughout the day.
I no longer have bad days, it is all bad and I now have good hours which are very few and far between, just 3 hours over the last month. Can I make the dust fly in those hours using every minute while the dysautonomia takes a coffee break!
I'm tidying up all the unfinished work around the house and finishing off the projects I have started so I don't leave a mess for my wife to contend with. I should be done by December when the final decision will be made. Until then I live with hope something will turn up to get me comfortable.
Cheers
