Oh I wish I could come over and give you a hug and chat and tell stories and moan a bit too and watch old Goldie Hawn movies because I know what it’s like, even if I have it differently and yours sounds way worse, but I know and the NHS sounds exhausting to deal with. Can you find a good acupuncturist? I know it sounds like a few little pricks aren’t going to solve the big problems but it definitely helps manage mine… Fly over here to see Dr Dong! big hugs my love ❤️❤️

I have SO MUCH to say in response to this one.

Firstly, I have no doubt this will land deeply with so many of us readers. It was my belief when I got diagnosed that the whole point of being referred to a “specialist” was so that they could help me get to root of the problem and support me back to wellness !!

What strikes me now though is that that was a belief that come from some place else, some other lifetime perhaps. Because I’m seeing a lot of dismissal and resistance around root cause of disease lately. So why did I go all in root cause if this is not the norm? I’m so thankful to myself now that I stayed on this track even though it was brutal to hear that the nhs weren’t going to help me do that.i found another way.

I’ll come back and reply with more after my writing class 😘
