Also in a weird  coincidence I was at the GP originally for a referral to a dermatologist as my hair has been falling out quite severely. I have lost half my hair in the past few months 🙁

I wasn't able to get an appointment for two months. Is this a normal waiting time? Or do you think I should try somewhere else?

I agree waiting sucks.

Big thank you to Kim and Janner for your wisdom.

I appreciate it more than I can express.

And thank you Brian for your lovely words of encouragement.

I hope you are all just fine too.

You all sound so calm and wise. I'm still slightly hysterical, which is not me at all usually. I am usually the quiet, calm one but this has shook me to my core.

I thought 'well I'll be ok, I'm so young' and then I realised 'hang on, I'm not any more!'

i don't want to talk about it to anyone in real life, but I come on here and talk and talk ( and waffle).

I have faith, but haven't been able to pray beyond 'Heal me please'.

Michael – you are so right about hugging loved ones tighter. I am usually quite a strict parent, but over Easter I let my children eat nothing but chocolate and pizza for an entire day. 

Back to the healthy stuff tomorrow though.

I keep stopping them and hugging them. My 14 year old is NOT thrilled 🙂

All the best to you Michael.

Thank you so much kind people.

So sorry I haven't been back. My laptop blew up when I had just finished grading all my papers. It's with the IT gurus now who will hopefully be able to retrieve something. 

We are very into dark humour in this house and my husband and I have been making dark, probably inappropriate jokes about my laptop dying. I won't repeat them incase I offend, but it seems to be a coping mechanism? 

I am now posting from my phone so I apologise for typos.

Thank you so much for helping me with that. The more I think about it, the more irked I am with the way the GP handled it all. My lovely regular GP was on leave. This one was in a rush. Not good.

I am sorry to hear that some of you have had hard to hear diagnoses. You are very kind to have responded and to be helping others. 

I will let you know how I get on. The thing is, I love the sun and feel gloomy in winter, but this has been an enormous wake up call to me. I should have known better with my pale English skin. 

I have not spoken to anyone in real life apart from my husband. Over Easter family members saw my scar (it's up near my shoulder/neck) and very hard to hide and I lied and said everything is fine. Why? I hate fuss and I especially hate people feeling sorry for me. I now wonder whether my relationships are rubbish, or is this a common thing? Not sure. 

Anyway, thanks again. Also, am I posting in the right place?
