Hi just having a moan, had my blood tests results back today and they were negative.

I am just so fed up of feeling ill all the time and sleeping away my life. I know everyone has the same or more problems I just wanted to let of steam.

Hi Kirsty

You may have told me but were those test that a rheumy ordered or do you have an upcoming appointment?

no just appointments though GP, but she did say if nothing came back she would refer me to hospital

Dont give up, the fact you have had positive results in the past carries a lot of weight, especially in view of your problems. Bloods can fluctuate. Make sure you get a referral to a rheumie. Keep a note of your symptoms and a record of your blood test results, this can really make a difference.

Take care

yeah don't give up Kirsty. Mine came back normal for years and I was sooo ill. I slept for 18hrs a day at my worst but even without meds or any treatment /recognition it passed with rest...

You musn't give up. The advice here is spot on IMHO write down what is happening, even with negative bloods the specialist will see a pattern if it's there

kirsty,
Hi chin up, labs are not everything. I had my sle done with a biospy and my labs have not shown sle, I even have trouble with it showing infections sometimes. Just remember if it sounds like a duck, it walks like a duck, and acts like a duck, it has to be a duck. Don't give up they will find out what is going on with you.

if it sounds like a duck, it walks like a duck, and acts like a duck, it has to be a duck. :lol:

Classic, must relate that to my Gp
