After two months, I finally got to book an appointment with my specialist, and I had to fast track this one by bullying the handler of account of the hospital, else whoever it is might not pay attention to me.
I use to hate hospitals,I still do, it's a very stressful place, filled anxiety and uncertainty, I never stepped my feet into one for over 15, despite suffering a lot of complications over the years that needed the attention of a special.
This wasn't because I hated my health, it's simply because I don't do well with anxiety. I've lost jobs over the years because I didn't have my head in the right place, and due to these I stayed away from hospitals for a very long time, but here I am now, frequenting hospitals and specialists multiple times in 2 years.
Some days ago, I started noticing new symptoms that are strange and just suddenly comes, I realized thay weren't familiar and this troubled me.
Trust me, that hospital is not where I want to be, one thing is sure, I'll be having anxiety bouts, because I'm probably going to be running multiple tests and the expectation of the results of these tests might throw me off a little, but then, I want to get rid of these symptoms and their underlying causes, because they're scary and not something I've experienced before.
I'm looking to do whatever I need to do, so that even though I'm not at a favorable state of mind, I'll have taken care of everything I wanted to.. Another thing is that there is a 20% chance I might get admitted, and that's if I need electropheresis treatment, which I honest wouldn't mind, but these treatments are very expensive.
The Specialist hospital is also very far, and I'll need about 2 to 3 hours drive to get there, and since I'm not at a 100%, I'll need to cook a taxi.
My partner will go through a mental breakdown if they learn I might only show up for work for less than one hour. She always has a PTSD when I'm absent for work, but unfortunately tomorrow will be an off, because I'll definitely not be able to work when I come back, and that's if I wasn't admitted.
She's one of those people who doesn't have the ability to grind without needing help, sometimes just 3 hours on the job she is already gassed out, while I can go 8 hours straight without even taking up to 30 minutes break. I'll see how it goes.
Same here, I hate going to hospital as well especially all smelling all this drugs and all the liquid treatment, it's always fuckin irritating, the stress wahala is too much for even the journey of 3hrs is not easy my brother. But it worth if it is for you to be restored back to your good health
Thank you, yes, a 3 hours hospital journey is never easy
i hear you, i bloody hate even to see an hospital from outside, it brings back bad memories, gives anxiety and uncomfort... i also had to start being annoying and make noise otherwise times would have gotten endless... and as always you either pay or are left alone
I'm glad you're getting checked out and hopefully won't need an electrophoresis treatment, but staying healthy is more important. You can't work if you're dead, at least the way I see it! Sorry to hear that she has a PTSD when you aren't at work, so hopefully it will all work out tomorrow. It's a shame the specialty clinic isn't closer, but at least you're taking care of yourself!

Hello, dear josediccus, I too have those terrible memories of being in a hospital, the anxiety, the hopelessness—it's terrifying. Going through something like that reminded me of my elders when they told me I could be going through a terrible time at work or financially, but the truly important thing is to be healthy. I wish you good health and success, my friend.

It sucks to go to the hospital, but you have to do what you have to do. I think your health is more important, and it's too bad about your partner. I think it just depends on the person, but I am sure you will be back to the grind soon enough.
