excuse me while I scream and throw things
I went back to the PMS clinic today.
And didn't see anyone.
Due to an mistake by one of the nurses, putting my file with the wrong Dr.
I waited there 2 hours to find out this mistake.
The other consultant called the consultant I was meant to see back, and arranged for me to go back. Next Monday afternoon. At 2pm. He made me the first appointment of the afternoon.
I hardly slept last night due to anxiety and period cramps. I'm also feeling depressed and low, and my anxiety was high, my blood pressure tested high even before the whole fiasco of my time there.
This morning I went to therapy, then to work for an hour and 45 minutes, then to Paddington. I arrived at 3.50, and left at 5.40, not having seen anyone.
It takes an hour from work to Paddington.
I am exhausted.
I felt like crying when I sat in the waiting room.
I wanted to hurt myself coming home on the bus. I felt so frustrated and annoyed and angry and upset.
But I phoned my parents and spoke to my mum instead.
Then I vented to my flatmates when I got home.
Katie is out of action for this evening, and is going to bed early and be sedated.
And Katie needs moral support and hugs.
Please.
Thanks.
P.S. Do you think I have grounds for complaint?
You see, if I'd spoken up earlier it might have been avoided. But I didn't think to check my file was properly filed. Plus I was feeling pretty awful physically and emotionally.
I'm speaking with my GP on Friday, see what she thinks.
I don't want to go back there after next Monday. If they hadn't sorted things I wouldn't have gone back at all. I can't be dealing with the extra stress, plus time off work and so forth.
Hell, I'd rather have PMS than hang out in Paddington of a Monday afternoon and get no treatment!
