My GP, a male would write to me always asking if the Steroid had worked. He always listened to my whacky ideas about my meds, wrote to the consultants who invariably told him I was right about certain meds being used " off licence" e.g. Retin a for my alopecia. He trained GP's but retired last June. He wrote to me personally wishing me well.
How do you reconcile yourself to this rubbish care ( using the term loosely)
.
I had him for 10 yrs. They dont prescribe bioodentical HRT but he told me "if you think this is what you need, lets do it and see. God I miss just knowing he is there.
Last April 2016. I was levered into a mammo. I refused a biopsy after calcifications were found as they moved so fast it freaked me. They admitted they cant tell what it is and I could face surgery and radiation for a slow growing tumour that may never harm me. He supported me in that he acknowledged my knowledge. So glad that letter is on the system as I feel I am alone.
Anxiety is back but I dont feel well in myself. Think my Lupus is flaring with all the stress. Steroid has done a number on my hormones for sure. Im on the Estrogel for now, have to take the Utrogestan soon. I did not tell them i was using vaginally as she wouldnt understand why. Think I have to swallow it now. I was getting a period from this way but not the oral way. Not sure it was getting in.
Time will tell if this awful anxiety dissapates. Very worried.
