Re: not coping

Oh @outlander that's huge news. Maybe now there's no need for the urgency and spending extra money you don't have. Although I know you obviously want to feel better as soon as you can.

Re: not coping

unfortunately it doesn't change the costs @Sans911
i still need to see a gastroenterologist which is where the fees come in, apparently for a gastroscopy if he decides to do that which more then likely he will the fees start at $1500
im still waiting to hear back from others in the area to see what their fees are as well, hopefully wont be that much. the gp is more concerned about my symptoms rather then what showed up on the ct scan. its good and relieving that its not a huge mass though but am going to still have to find out whats causing the symptoms

Re: not coping

Didn't think that at all @outlander. I can't see emotions and expressions in text or through the phone. I can 'hear' it and see it sometimes in your words. Your life is immensely frustrating day after day. You don't cop a break from anything at all. And on top of that you don't get adequate rest and recovery. Even if you were well, you still need that.

So if you are grouchy, grouch away. :angry_face_with_horns::angry_face_with_horns::angry_face_with_horns:

Re: not coping

Thinking of you @outlander Relieved that the mass is 1.9 not 19cm for you. Hope you can find some quiet time for you today - maybe set the kids up with a movie for a while. Take care xoxo 💞
