Why even bother to seek out help from "professionals" when all they are going to do is refuse to treat you?
I was referred to a specialised center, due to not being able to find a Dr. in my area.
Now the center is sending me back to the doctors that refused to see me 6 months ago!
Just very fed up with it all.
Sorry for ranting just needed to get it out into the open, not all help is available to those who need it.

Dear Tracy, I am so sorry to hear about your problems. I cannot believe that there are no specialists in your area. How can these people do that to somebody in need...there must be something that somebody can do to help you. I know how hard it is to not have a T to talk with...and I hope that you'll find one soon. Good luck!
P.S. Please try to stay safe and if you need to talk more...I am here, so you can pm me or chat if you wish so. Take care

I am so sorry this is happening to you. I wish I could share my T with you.



Rant away, that's what this site is for.

TracyL,
I'm so sorry...

For this to be happening to you when you are seeking help is outrageous. Is there anyone who can be a patient advocate for you? I'm unsure how your health system works so I don't know what is available to you...for this I offer my apology.

Please keep posting, though. It will keep you in contact with people who care, understand, and will support you as much as we can.

Catherine

Thank you all for the support,
Family doc is contacting trauma center to see if they will reconsider, if not then we go back to trying to find a T here in town.
I am trying hard to be optimistic, and trying hard to remember I am not alone, but sometimes it is just to overwhelming.
That is why I value this site so much, I'm NOT alone and have found a huge circle of support and friendship.
There are no words to describe how that feels.
So thanks to all, and maybe we can all get through this together after all?
Tracy
