I still feel crap and Dr was no help!!

by ~*Leanne*~ Tue Jul 08, 2008 2:15 am

Well, went to Drs last night and all they said was 'are you stressed' or 'it could be tension headaches you are getting' i told them about me feeling dizzy, headaches, cold, tickly cough, not sleeping, feeling sick - but that's all she said!! i waited nearly an hour in the waiting room for her to say that!!!

anyway - she took my blood pressure which she said was fine, think she said it was 126 or something and im usually 112?!? not sure what that means but she wants me to go for a blood test (again!!) to see if i am Anemic - only time they can fit me in is 10.45am next Monday - i told them i work but they said that's the only time they have got so i had to take that, but going to ring them and cancel it as i see Midwife on 30th so might as well ask her to do it then instead of me having to book half a day off work for something which takes 2mins!!!

how r u girlies this monring?

Sorry you're feeling rubbish. Is there anywhere else you can go for blood tests? I can get them done at the hospital & they have a drop in clinic - maybe see if yours has something similar? So that you don't have to wait, if you are anaemic then the quicker it's found the better so that something can be done about it.

With blood pressure I think it's the lower number that's important and the top one can change from minute to minute.

Hope you're feeling better soon flower
