I'm not officially diagnosed with lupus, but I read a book that says 'if you have 4 or more of the following 11 symptoms, probably yes...'.
So, probably yes.
Planning to visit my GP this week - girding my loins as we speak... Hate doctors. Nothing personal, just... hate doctors.
After your third or fourth miscarriage, the bedside manner gets really old. 'I'm sure this is nothing to worry about...'.
'Oh, how nice for you. Find me someone who gives a **** then!' is what I never said out loud...
And when you're hoping for answers, a cosy shrug and 'just one of those things - I wouldn't blame yourself! It's probably nothing to do with the fact that you stayed at work so long/ ate that soft cheese/ seem to be a bit of an over/ under-achiever/ seem to work out so much/ so little' doesn't help a whole lot.
And I know we're supposed to love all midwives, but is it just me, or do they actually *hate* us failures? With a blind, shiny, bright-as-a-bunny panic they daren't admit to, but will nevertheless quietly punish us for?
Just me, yep?
