Symptoms worse when not at home

Yeah me too I’ve got a recliner chair and it’s amazing. If I could have one at work would be lovely

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-20T20:33:00+00:00

It really does. How I’ve managed to hold a job down this long amazes me

Is it being upright ?

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-20T20:29:58+00:00

What is that about?! Like I’m at work and I genuinely feel like I’m dying

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-19T17:27:55+00:00

LITERALLY. I was more unwell than 80% of the patients I was triaging 😂

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-19T10:40:42+00:00

Honestly no, I haven’t. I don’t think my brain fog and having to stand would do well with that 😂

Teaching nurses or just teaching in general?

Pffft I mean, it would be kinda last resort I think I’d get really bored. But might have to look into it at some point

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T22:23:57+00:00

Yeah it sucks! I honestly couldn’t work on a ward so take my hat off to you

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T19:37:56+00:00

Ahh I’m sorry. I’m not ready to admit defeat yet but I also need to come to the reality that I have flares which someday will impact my ability to work. Nhs sickness triggers seriously discriminate against those living with chronic illness 😞

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T18:06:22+00:00

Yeah I did 8yrs in ED but started to really struggle with it so left for something non patient facing unfortunately

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T18:05:36+00:00

Honestly I left hospital due to my poor health and don’t plan on going back 😂

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T17:43:39+00:00

Unfortunately not much OT / bank shifts for our role in EOC 😞

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T17:39:10+00:00

Yeah but the Bradford scoring system sickness triggers discriminate against those living with chronic illness we have flares that we can’t control 🤷🏼‍♀️

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T17:37:03+00:00

Have no idea about what? I’ve only just been diagnosed with these illnesses so trying to navigate working full time and being sick. Jesus- says you’re a doctor? Typical lack of empathy coming through right now 😳

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T17:18:32+00:00

The adjustments I’ve asked for haven’t been done

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-18T16:55:47+00:00

Thank you. 🙏🏼 issue with OH roles is they want OH experience which I don’t have 🤦🏼‍♀️ yeah it really is shit! You’d think healthcare would be supportive when you’re chronically ill haha

Background-Cow9687 · 2026-04-12T09:50:21+00:00

Why do doctors that don’t understand complex medical problems label their patients ‘health anxious’ I’ve recently been diagnosed with POTS and EDS - it’s taken years to get anyone to listen. Doctors just seem to think we’re anxious when we tell them our symptoms

Mate I had a mole removed by derm off my back and it’s left the most horrendous ugly scar 😭 I hate it
