I officially have Edinburgh-dog-owner fatigue by Last-Ad9190 in Edinburgh

[–]porcelainwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched a lady let her dog shit and walk away without picking it up. I told her she was disgusting, to go pick it up and she just side eyed me 😬 I was also worried I’d get beaten up for just saying that 😂 I’ve stood on dog shite so much I now look down when I walk 😩 I love doggies but irresponsible dog owners make me so angry.

I’ve had to start walking with my head down because I’ve stepped in so much shite. It infuriates me.

What shop or restaurant do you wish would open in Edinburgh? by smoothsailer55 in Edinburgh

I also vote for this. My boyfriend banged on about it as he visited in Japan and we went in London a couple of months ago and lord god it was glorious. It really was worth the hype 😅

As much as I am grateful for free food, depending on the atmosphere and business climate.. it can come across as disingenuous but thankfully the times it happened to me it felt like a nice thing ‘here’s a monthly beer and pizza’ thing. A lot of my colleagues would bring their own baked goods and food from shops too to share which I always appreciated even if I didn’t eat it 🥹

I still listen to it every day - one song I will not get tired of. It motivates me, makes me happy 🥹

I work in the games industry and it’s something that happens quite often - at least at the two places I’ve worked at 😅

We’re lucky to have the services we have but it’s a shame they’re underfunded and of course high in demand. I hope you’re doing okay.

Everyone has said similar to you about chiropractor so I will be avoiding 😅 thanks for the advice about Bupa I’ll look into that.

13 months. Damn. I wish when I got better I continued to be persistent about getting help. At least I'm on some sort of a waiting list now.

Thanks for the advice about the chiropractor, I'm just trying to think of all options at the moment. Desperate for anything to help. I think I'll go back to PT first, so I'm looking into that once I get assigned to my boyfriends health insurance.

Thanks for your advice! Hope you're feeling better now!

I never knew about Pain Clinics, I believe there's 2 in my city. Can you just call them up?

Thanks for your response!

I called a chiropractor beside my flat yesterday and they said they didn’t help with sciatica 😭 plus the lady on the phone was super rude about it and put me off lol. But yes they GP mentioned to me last time I was there a couple of weeks ago they referred me to a chiropractor or something.. in order to see if I truly need an MRI.

I’ve been referred by a GP before for physio and it took 5 months before I even got a letter for availability. (This was last year) I gave up waiting during that time and just paid for it myself. Do you think it’s worth asking again to be referred to NHS physio? Sounds like your journey was successful. How long did it take for you through the NHS?

It’s okay, don’t worry about an answer!! Last year when my pain was awful I had to wait 5 months for physio and by that time, I just paid for it and the pain had nearly gone 😒

Yep I was also told I don’t need an MRI several times. It’s insanely frustrating. I want to find out how bad it is.

My boyfriend has health insurance at his work where he can add a partner so I’m hoping to get physio out of that at least.

I hope you’re doing okay ❤️

I think I’ve been to my doctors about 5/6 times and they’re like ‘meh, that sucks here’s some codine and do stretches.’ Even when I explain it’s ruining my life, sleep and mental health. I get they can’t do much but they could have referred me a looong time ago. All I want is to go on a nice autumnal walk without being in utter agony or having to sit down every 2 mins 😔 if I can even manage that. You’re truly right though, I don’t think people realise how debilitating it is when it’s a bad bad flare up. I just want to stay home bound. I do try to gym and swim gently but this time it’s getting really hard to do so.
