He will see you "shortly" afterwards...What does that mean in NHS-speak?

Well Done Matt!
I bet you are relieved that ordeal is over.
Be proud of yourself, you did brilliantly!

Thanks Carnation

Diazepam has been a life saver for me with things like this.

The nurse was also brilliant that did my paperwork and cannula. I told her how i was feeling and it turned out she had a period off work last year with depression and anxiety.

I've not slept well for months and months, hardly slept last night, think i will sleep better tonight.

The letter i got from the gastro who i met about 6 weeks ago and arranged these tests said he would see me again in 6 weeks. These tests have probably taken longer than he expected to come through so i hope it won't be long after the scan pictures have been looked at and the reports are in. I will give it 2 weeks and start to phone. I just hope that it's not the same as CT's and MRI's as they aren't being looked at and reported on for 5 to 6 weeks.

Well done on getting through the latest ordeal ( my worst nightmare being trapped in a medical smarties tube ) hopefully they will get to the bottom of what's wrong then they can treat it instead of just guessing and arsing about . It would be the best Christmas present.
Also well done on keeping quiet about being a foreigner or you'd have to pay and be deported back to Scotland
Fingers crossed you'll soon be fixed .

I didn't know you were Scottish, Matt!

You could give your GP a Glasgow kiss for his troubles!

Cheers Buster.

It would be fantastic to get a diagnosis. It's nearly exactly a year ago i was referred to have my gallbladder out, but here i am all this time later.

I'm gonna love it if/WHEN they say "oh yeah sorry it is your gallbladder" actually they won't say sorry! But there will be hell to pay! Living in pain is misserable, draining and mental torture.

Would love to live in Scotland again. Infact anywhere north of Watford would do. Misserable feckers down south! Lol

Yeah, My Dad moved about with his job. My brothers were born in Manchester and Durham. I was born in Scotland and we moved down south and been here ever since.

Lol. That's why i have phone appts with my GP now as i fear i might give him a malky!!


My Mum & Dad are English, does that make me English or Scottish?

I think you could choose if you wanted to play International Football..

But you could be Scottish when it comes to having to spend money...

I do add water to the hand wash and washing up liquid when it's starting to run out, so maybe....... I show NO signs of ginger! Lol

My Dad is a sarf Londoner and my Mum is from Yorkshire and daft as a brush so i class myself as English.

Steady on.... Or do you mean Christmas 2019?!

Seriously though, I hope you get an appointment through soon.

I think you're English too! Yorkshire is a beautiful county-I'd love to live there too!
