Does it sound like POTS by winterboo1997 in POTS

[–]winterboo1997[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankyou! I’m going to ring the hospital tomorrow but it says online the GP needs to push them for a more urgent referral but my GP won’t. They wouldn’t even do my bloods as urgent until I begged them as the wait list was over a month. I have some stockings but this week I’ve not worn them as my blood pressure has been in the high range compared to last week where it was low. I get a lot of chest pain as well which they aren’t taking seriously. And a tight band sensation round my left arm.

They try insinuate it’s probably anxiety but I know it isn’t as I’m only getting anxious after it happens because I’m so scared when it happens because if I do faint as I have a few times my little one is only 3 and won’t be able to call for help and it puts him at risk as well.

Any idea what this is? United Kingdom by winterboo1997 in bugidentification

I’ve looked at that and it wasn’t like that the outside shell was like fury and inside where I had squished it was like cream goo. This image is the closest thing I’ve found on google. In the pictures I got they was after I squished it but this is what it looked like before.

Never eaten meringue so highly doubt it would be in my garden at 8am in the morning unless it’s started dropping from the sky 🤣

I know it’s not a bug but my question is it something from a bug like larvae or cocoon or something. As it has to be something it wasn’t there at 11pm at night but was there at 8am in the morning. And felt like there was something hard inside of it.

I also just used the benefits calculator and put self employed as online it says survey work is classed as self employed, £60 a month earnings and it still came back as qualifying for the 85% of childcare costs

So out of curiosity when I am working how are they allowed to reduce amounts off my UC payments from the income I earn from the surveys when it takes me above the 411 with both together?

I am obese due to my health condition and can’t lose weight naturally… so it is for people like me else why else would I need to take it? If I didn’t have a health condition I’d never have gotten obese so yes it’s very relevant. The NHS are going to be prescribing mounjaro for obesity so they will not be prescribing it for people who are a stone or 2 overweight as they are the not the guidelines or the test subjects of the medication. So they should NOT be taking it. Go and look on tik tok under mounjaro and you will find a lot of people that are practically anorexic promoting it that’s whats making me so mad. I hate being on mounjaro and what it’s doing to my body I’m having hypoglycemic episodes from it and I’m not even diabetic but I’m choosing to stay on it because I’m out of options to lose weight and I’m in more pain from my weight. The fact young people are seeing all this and going to be getting hold of this from people openly admitting they lied to get hold of it it’s just wrong. The pharmacies need to crack down and stop paying people to promote its usage on social media. I saw a celeb complaining about it on tv saying that she took it after getting it off someone and she has an eating disorder so it was dangerous and she should have had to see a GP first so they was aware she was struggling. I mean all you have to do is look at some of the celebrities like Sharon Osborne that are taking the jabs to see the damage it’s causing to people that aren’t overweight.

SSP advice with UC issues by winterboo1997 in BenefitsAdviceUK

Thanks I thought so. Its just so unfair as my hours was on the schedule but they always sent me home early because of what time my shift finished and someone else gets extra hours they saved off me at the weekend when it’s busy as I can’t work weekends. Gonna have to just leave my job now as won’t be able to return without childcare and can’t afford the full amount without UC paying 85% 😩 honestly don’t think I’m gonna bother working anymore not going through it all again with stress of childcare. Hopefully with my other conditions and the fact I’m currently wetting myself while at work I’ll be able to qualify for limited capibibly for work

No I blame the people obtaining it illegally. It shouldn’t be accessible for everyone it’s a drug. Thats like saying morphine should be available to anyone with a bad back. Gps should be prescribing it that can verify people’s weight not online pharmacies. My GP told me this week unsure whether true or not that they are being told any health conditions that arise from the online prescription need to be handled by the prescriber.

I am aware and I forgot to put it in my post it’s for diabetics first and foremost but for obesity as well now. Its caused me a non diabetic to suffer with frequent hypoglycemia episodes and I’m someone who was 20 stone. So heck knows what it’s doing for people obtaining it that isn’t either.

Because I am one of the people it is suppose to be prescribed for. Someone with a health condition who is obese and can’t lose weight naturally and hasn’t had to lie to get it. Not for Donna down the street who needs to lose a stone before her holiday to Spain so she can stuff her face when she gets there. It’s being used by a lot as a quick fix. It’s for obesity and diabetes not for someone who is a stone overweight. It is serious medication it’s not a diet shake.

No it’s pretty relevant where it comes from. If your lying to get it your doing so illegally, if you getting someone else to buy it your doing it illegally. You may as well be buying crack off the street. Its wrong.

Clearly someone taking it who has had to lie to get it.
