"Can barely function"

For a number of years I have been going back and forward to my doctor with the same complaints. I am so tired all the time I can barely function. I have constant skin rashes. Hot flushes. Aches. I have lost 3 stone. Have no appetite and when I do it just goes right through me. The list could go on and on. I am a single mother who has no option but to work but I am pretty much on my knees. I have no existence as I feel awful all the time.

I  was finally given a CT scan which has shown up something in my bowel. I was told I would be referred to a specialist urgently. 7 weeks later I am still waiting. I called the hospital today and was told I would be waiting at least 15 weeks. Because this has been ongoing for so long my private health care wont do anything (funnily enough if I went private it’s the same doctor who I am desperately waiting to see that can see me no problem!) This is making me so miserable now. I already suffer with my mental health and I am really struggling to cope. What has happened to our once great ARI?
