Hi all,
Last November I was suffering from major pains in my chest which after blood tests, chest xrays and a few incorrect diagnoses from the docs ranging from pulled muscles to pluracy it was decided I had bad indigestion and I was sent on my way with tablets and iron tablets for a low iron level.
I went back to the doctors three weeks ago as I'd had a constant nagging headache for a while and he said it was sinisitus and I got antibiotics and another blood test. Results came back and iron level was still a bit low so was given more iron tablets (after I had to suggest if I should get more). He said he was referring me to the gastro unit after reading back my notes.
So I get a call on Saturday from the hospital booking me in for an endoscopy and a bowel scan.
My mind is now all over the place. I can't think what reason this is all needed when all I had was a headache and low iron levels.
I'm now panicking that I have something sinister wrong with me that he kept quiet.
