So, I've had quite a lot of messages from people who've known me on Fu since my first account about 5-6years ago about where I've been and why I come back for a short period of time and vanish again without a goodbye.
I've had a lot of family issues, my partner has problems with his eyes and has required several lots of surgery over the past 18 months to try and save his eyesight (I think we are finally winning on that front!). My grandparents were ill over Christmas and new year’s, ended up going into a care home and unfortunately we lost my granddad last month. Dad is still in and out of hospital waiting for some major surgery which has been put back and delayed so many times now due to cut backs but hopefully that will happen for him soon enough.
Then there’s me. Well, I'm in work most days when I can make it in, taken a few days off in the past several months but I come in as often as I can, perhaps pushing myself a bit too much some of the time. I've been back and forth to doctors and specialists for a little while now. I've got apparently unusual and rare blood readings, everything that was high is low and low was high in each test. They haven't ruled out anything unfortunately. I've got to be admitted to hospital for full scans of my ovaries, womb and pituitary glands to rule out a tumour and then I'll have 8hrs of being injected with various enzymes and having regular blood tests after each one to see how my body reacts. Hopefully after all that I will finally get some answers good or bad and start to find something to help with the symptoms.
