Honestly Im Sick Of It - Tumblr Posts

Ok a little story/rant.

I have been having a few heath issues lately.

Loosing my breath, aching and continued tiredness. Swollen joints, even hair loss.

I have had repeated visits to the doctor and it's always the same reasons.

First you're overweight, true as this is I have lost over 4 stone of weight in the last 5 years. Slow I know by a good amount for someone in continuous pain, and the pain only gets worse.

Second you're young and shouldn't be having all these issues. No shit Sherlock that's why I'm here and shy of passing out or vomiting blood I apparently don't warrant an x-ray.

And lastly when I mention how almost all the women on my mum's side have lupus and started to show signs around my age it's instantly "no the chances are to low, it's impossible!"

I'm scared and annoyed about this. My auntie has lost a kidney and the other barely functions because her issues were always blamed on her weight, now it's her lupus.

I am showing all these signs and symptoms and am just being called paranoid and fat. I am paranoid, I know people who have died because their lupus wasn't treated correctly/ even found.

And I'm just being fobbed off, now I'm seen as this crazy lady wasting NHS money when all I want is help to feel normal or have the fucking reason s to why I feel this way all the time
