OK, so this is a list of all my illnesses and disabilities

(1/1)

Amanda_George:
Just feeling a bit glum this afternoon and realised I haven't given you all a list of what my illnesses and disabilities are yet, so here goes:

Endometriosis
At risk of getting a detached retina
Hearing loss
Brain damage
Dairy allergy
OCD
Psychotic depression with self harm tendencies and suicidal ideation
Non-alcoholic Korsakov Syndrome (ie extreme vitamin B1 deficiency)

I spent almost 4 months in hospital after being taken in unconscious by ambulance on Christmas Day 2002... I spent 2 weeks in ICU, 3 weeks in High Dependency and 2 months in Neurology.

In 2010 my dad died of cancer.

I miscarried twins the week of my 19th birthday and because the Endometriosis is so bad, I'm probably infertile too.

Oh I dunno, just needed to let the blues out somewhere  :chin:   :(

Martin:
That’s a lot to cope with. How are you doing today?

Amanda_George:
I usually cope OK with it all and just struggle through each day as best I can   :-\

Martin:
That's the most anyone can ask of you; doing the best you can to get through each day. :-)

Amanda_George:
Thank you Martin!  It'll be interesting to see how I feel when the clocks go back now that I'm off the citalopram!
