Moving out.. a saga.

So my dad came to pick up about 90% of my room to take back to my mum's house, now my room is all echoey and quite frankly the dirt really shows... who knew that skirting boards were supposed to be white?? and that the floor is supposed to be blue not bluey grey/brown (pretty sure that's my hair and dust if it's anything like the hall).

I'd you know clean but dad filled me up with Chinese and i can barely move :P annoyingly because i've sent my tv home i have to sit all day at my PC on the plus side ive pushed my bed against it so i lierally lie like jabba the hutt which due to the fact ive just put my clothes in the washing machine is almost factually true as an image...almost i'm not actually a huge fat space slug i just feel like one: a lot of chinese seriously...

So i move the rest of the stuff out on monday which hopefully won't take long till then im just killing time today tomorrow i'll write 1000 words cos i wont feel like a space slug :P

The trouble with Doctors....a rant

I'm having my gall bladder removed and I thought I'd share some issues I've had with healthcare professionals in my travels.

My GP misdiagnosed me, as did the 3 at the same practice who kept giving me the same acid reflux drugs, it took me saying I dont want to take them any more to make my condition flare up (acid reflux drugs do work on gallstones as they minimise acid) and get bad enough to be admitted.

When I was admitted to hospital the nurse who came into the GP's office to check on me while I waited for a taxi (yes a taxi, I was nearly passing out and they gave me a taxi which had to wait at red lights) asked me if i had 'belly ache' patted me on the head and told me i was sweaty, now I've been told gallstone pain is like giving birth so this is not what I wanted.

Today the Dr shoved me from department to department and literally saw me for 5 mins leaving the nurses to do all the real work.

My STI test nurse was bad as well asking me if the speculum hurt when i said yes she asked me if it hurt during sex - thats just not the same situ sex and a Dr's office totally different and then told me to relax.. oh yes relaxing in a pair of stirrups.

What is more shocking that I went to change my pill as i still get cramps etc, the Dr I saw who was a quite young woman told me that my PMS was all in my head, like taking hormones doesnt do stuff to you via build up etc.

TBH I get much more issue with lady docs than man docs, and young doc more than old ones, I actually ask for male docs now and old ones are very unthreatening.
