guess who called 111 and explained the situation and immediately got told to go to the hospital as soon as possible. it's a 13+ hour wait for treatment when all they're likely to do is prescribe antibiotics, which they could have done over the phone.

on the one hand at least we're being taken seriously now but on the other hand I really don't want to expend loads of energy sitting in a chair that's going to fuck up our spine in a room that's going to give us sensory overload, when this could all have just been sorted by now if the first doctor actually listened to us.

this is a medical issue we've had before and we know how our body reacts to it and what the treatment for it is, but apparently everyone else is determined to make it as difficult as possible to get that treatment

#personal #thoughts #🍬 post #I also can't get to the hospital right now but it seems like it's the only way we'll get treatment #except there's absolutely no way on earth we'll be able to stay there for the entire wait time anyway so it feels pointless #like when they thought we'd fractured our tailbone and told us to go urgently and then we had to leave after 4 hours #so yeah I guess we're probably going to the hospital but I doubt we'll get treatment even if we go #I also don't even know when we could get there because our mum is currently taking her boyfriend to his own medical appointment #but yeah what the fuck do we do if we can't wait the entire time to get treatment at the hospital? what happens then?#do we just not get treatment at all? because that's what it seems like #vent post
