Unfortunately I experienced multiple traumas over the past ten to twelve years. Multiple surgeries from injuries etc. I'm grateful to be alive. I have a tendency to show I have a handle on everything due to people saying get over it, it's not that bad, rude behaviour etc. At the moment I'm overwhelmed.

Three weeks ago I had major surgery on a limb. Now another previously operated limb ( last surgery 17 months ago) is bothering me- function.
I had a recent follow up with a surgeon who operated on the above limb and also participated in my recent surgery. He also asked how Is the other limb he operated on. Due to focusing on my recent surgery, my fear of doctors ( he's insensitive, quit seeing him, he particpated in my recent surgery due to requiring two surgeons) I said it's okay and I know it will never be 100 percent. I was overwhelmed, cautious, and didn't speak up.

It's grown steadily worse. I feel overwhelmed with function issues. Also dealing with several injuries, doctors etc. I try to help myself and hope my symptoms settle ( few weeks or more) before seeking care. So many past injuries not dealt with at the time due to my situations. Also if Im experiencing a few problem areas I can only focus on one at a time.
