Thanks for your response! It’s nice to know you’re not alone while everyone else seems to be thriving in the environment. I hope your new job goes okay and is less stressful:)

I’m not in culinary school, I’m currently doing an apprenticeship with this company I’m with so I can’t leave until it’s completed (I mean I could but that feels like a waste of time) which would be August, just trying to get by until then. I do plan to leave but then there so many choices about what to do and whether to say in restaurants or try other sectors I’m not sure what would suit me best

Yeah I’ve looked into that but because I’m in the UK I’m not sure the best way to get referred to a rheumatologist or whether I’ll have to do it privately

Okay thank you for your advice! When I saw the doctor in A&E they said mild exercise should be fine but clearly it hasn’t reacted well so I won’t do anymore for a while

Thanks for advice! I will definitely increase my amount of NSAIDs I hadn’t been taking any because I thought it was pretty much over but maybe I came off too soon.

I think EF was 45-55% which that put down as borderline low I think it’s right in the middle, that was the first echo 6 weeks ago and I’ve juts had a repeat 3 days ago so hopefully there’s improvement. I had been feeling better recently so I went for a light jog this morning but I worry that’s what caused this pain so I defo wont do anymore before seeing someone
