So I’ve had ongoing symptoms for getting on for two years now. Bowel issues, pain under left and right ribs, constipation, painful tailbone, rectal pain. I wasn’t getting anywhere with my GP who I felt was too quick to put it down to anxiety.
I got a new GP who listens to me now and has booked me in for pelvic and abdo scan. My appointment is on Thursday. Ive already cancelled it once because I was too scared of what I’m sure they’re going to find and wasn’t ready to deal with it. Now I’m getting horrific joint pain in my hands and feet and I want to cancel again as I’m convinced this joint pain is the cancer spreading and I’m just too scared to go.
I’m also depressed which isn’t helping. I have good intentions of getting on with my day and then just cancel everything so I can go back to bed. Today I need to go grocery shopping but as yet can’t face getting in the shower or getting dressed. It’s too much effort.
Can anyone give me a firm talking to please?
