Still feel like I am fighting a battle single handed against a fully equipped army.

I went back to my GP and asked "What now?" She looked thoughtful and said "I think we will have to give up on that hospital." That was the local city hospital.

So now I have to arrange an appointment with another hospital (in a larger city nearby), but they require the details of the tests done at the first hospital. The GP doesn't have those details, I have to apply for a copy of my hospital dossier from the hospital itself, that might take 4 weeks.

In the meantime, my eyes are continuing to get worse, as are my swollen feet, which the GP put down to the fact that I can't do any exercise.

By the time that I do finally get a diagnosis, let alone treatment, I am going to be so much weaker than when I started, that I shall never be able to get back to anything like normal. Despairing and furious, but there just doesn't seem to be any way to get this health system to work any faster than treacle running uphill.
