evening all feeling a bit down at the moment and probably just need a damn good cry. At the end of January 2013 it was discovered that I had an internal bleed with blood count down to 6.4 so got rushed into L.R.I. for a triple transfusion of the sticky red stuff 4 weeks later endoscopy red blood count 10.8 so there I was chuffed to bits but still no tests to find where the bleed was despite numerous calls from me, Penny the docs rec. and 3 strongly worded letters from my doctor. Monday 8th back to doctors as the symptoms where returning Tuesday 9th blood test Wed 10 call from the doctor that we are right back to square 1 with my red blood count down to 6.8 so just waiting to hear which hospital I have got to turn up to tomorrow, how can I lose 4 units in 5 weeks and there be no evidence for gods sake. Am I feeling totally p****d off you bet I am. Sorry for being such a misery buy I just needed to get it off my chest. On the upside I have taken a few photos (well rather a lot actually of my new reptile room all done by my own fair hands so I'll pop them in the photo section. |

You don't need to thank us all Jane....this forum seems to attract people who really do care and like to show it  . And don't go on too much about us being a fantastic bunch or our heads will get too big  ! I know how encouraging it is to get support like this, so let us keep doing it  !!
I'm glad you got on ok at the hospital. I know you wanted them to push that blood into you as fast as possible, but they must have been doing it slowly for a reason. Frustrating but necessary. I'm also glad that you've had a number of tests done and blood taken, and you're getting a colonoscopy done....again something you'd rather not do but necessary. Just focus on the fact that all of this, the pain and indignity, is to get you sorted out. Better to go through it and get an answer than not and live like you are.
I do hope you're feeling ok today. This must all be taking its toll on you. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Xxx

Hi everyone just back from hospital and I am absolutely amazed at all the fantastic messages from you all you really are a fantastic bunch and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
Just a quick update 2 units of blood today but this time no amount of pestering and mickey taking would make them speed it up they dragged each one out for the full 3 hours and didn't start the first one until 1 PM, 2 blood tests and 2 canullas (sorry don't know how to spell it) as the first one missed the mark so they had to change arms as they blew the vein, 1 heart trace and numerous examinations, they are sending me an appointment out in the next couple of weeks for a colonoscopy (aren't I the lucky one) and a further appointment in 6 - 8 weeks back at the clinic for to see if I'm still actively bleeding.
I'm off to bed in a minute but will catch up with you all later, once again a massive thank you xx |

Your snakes are breaking out in the night, measuring themselves besides you and then sucking your blood :P
Good luck though and I hope you feel better and get your answer. |

I'm thinking of you now Jane and praying for you (hope that's ok). I can understand a bit about being in a health situation where you don't have any answers.....but yours is a scary one with losing so much blood and no explanation  .
I know how much you need to share how you're feeling and sometimes it's easier to 'vent' to your virtual friends instead of constantly burdening those around you. You don't need to apologise for being a misery, you are allowed to feel the way you are! And we aren't just here for our corns, but to offer help and support to each other wherever and however we can .
I truly hope you get the answers you need and can begin treatment for whatever is going on soon.
Xxx
