breastscreen saw something so I had biopsies last Wednesday, my gp was supposed to get the results by Monday, got a ph call from breastscreen to say the pathologist wanted to do more staining and my gp would get the results on Tuesday so I should see him Wednesday. and Im so depressed and scared and such about the whole thing. wouldn't be so bad but theres just me and my autistic daughter left now , friends I thought I had I dont and not a friendly neighbourhood I tried when we came here but was ignored. I have never felt so alone in my life

- tismeMemberi rang breastscreen to see when my gp would have the results. just got a call back , the doctor there is discussing my results with the pathologist after the delay and the doc is supposed to ring me the nurse rang me back , my results are very complex evidently they wont give the results by the phone doc should have the results by the end of the day . God I feel sick what if it is what then , how do I get to treatment I cant drive there or take public transport the arthritis wont let me what about daughter why me ( yeah I know ) this was sposed to be my time to sorta relax now I just have daughter to care for
- kmakmMemberHang in there.
- tismeMembersheesh what a day , ive done nothing but sit in the chair , I hurt, took me all my strength to get out of the chair to do anything. later tomorrow my doc should get the results Wednesday I will. my psych has upped my Zoloft to 150mg but I dont wanna start it till I get the results I dont know how its gonna hit me and I dont wanna be doped out on Wednesday. Ive cancelled all other appointments this week daughter is constantly checking on me.
- tismeMemberno he doesn't do that , he doesn't like emails I will have to wait till tomorrow and hope he answers the phone or answers the message. when I changed GP's I gave the new referral to him and months later he was still working on the previous one , the new one he found in the paperwork in my file I only go to him cos he bulk bills mebee getting ndis for mental health I can get some funding ( ha ha ) today is a really bad day so much needs doing and all I do is sit daughter is being played for a fool by a boy she knew in high school that has turned up to visit his mom
- SoldierCrabMemberhi Tisme
sorry for a late reply my internet is playing up...
Can you Skype with the Psychiatrist? might be an option due to what is happening right now for you. - primekMemberPerhaps you can call the psychiatrist office and ask if he could check the recommendations for how much to increase by. Explain due to health unable to currently come to another appointment at the moment. I'm sure they would help out.
- tismeMemberbad night last night , nightmares my biggest worry is daughter. so much needs doing round here but I just think what's the point I vaguely remember my psychiatrist telling me to up my dose of Zoloft but dont remember fully haven't seen him in a few months I cant get there and after the trip to Nambour last week I cant , I cant go through that again all the pain and stiffness
- tismeMemberdaughter is autistic /blind in one eye /deaf in one ear and deformed feet , all she has gotten off disability services etc to date is 1 pair of shoes a year , nothing else not even orthotics
