I've made the appointment. It's for tomorrow.

Although I've had therapy, I've never taken meds before, but I'm so desperate, I am going to request them.

I'm allergic to aspirin, penicillin, many antibiotics and a load of other stuff. So I normally avoid all drugs, apart from my daily anti histamine.

I'm pretty nervous about the whole thing, as I just don't trust doctors. At my previous GP practice, one of the doctors had given penicillin to an allergic patient accidentally, and they died. And the GP still worked there.

These things go through your mind when you're swallowing a powerful pill your doctor has assured you is fine.

It's just another complicating factor which makes me feel discouraged before I've even started.

Anyway, I've got that off my chest. It had been playing on my mind.

Anyway, I'm going, and that's that.

It's a start.
