Masked Yogi May 2016 2:10pm, 7 May 2016 4 posts	0 Masked Yogi Thanks to all. I really appreciate the time you have taken. I feel like I'm wasting the docs time , last time I was in he did hint towards work situation being less than ideal. Will try for an appointment next week thanks again.

Hanneke Oct 2017 11:36pm, 8 Oct 2017 69,266 posts	0 Hanneke On top of what V-rap suggests, I would suggest you write down ALL symptoms of ill health/stress/tiredness/exhaustion/depression you may have experienced in the last 12 months or even longer, for as far as you can remember, difficult, I know. I had a 15 month stint 5 years ago, where I was sliding into increasingly ill health. My GP was being very supportive, but neither of us actually linked the string of symptoms/ailments/spells of dis-ease until I got so fedup with it all after a really weird episode that I used whispers Google and put more or less ALL my symptoms in one search... It suddenly gave a clear picture of what was wrong with me and I am now back to good health, rather than in a hospice unable to function...
