Re: not coping

thats ok @Snowie i get it.
im watching the smurfs atm. i had a shower earlier but i have lots of blisters and the graze stung so much i was shaking in pain so made it a very quick one. hopefully will settle enough for a proper shower tomorrow though as that would be good!

Re: not coping

stupid covid. stupid people not doing the right thing making it harder for the rest of us 🤬😡😠
you were just starting to get the face to face supports again!
i know the phone call ones are harder. its not the same as speaking face to face or even on zoom/skype. i hope you get something out of it though @Snowie

im looking into some health insurance. if i need further surgery/treatment then id like my specialist to do it

Re: not coping

It makes it harder, I just don't get much out of the phone call @outlander

And just when I really need that face to face contact.

If you are comfortable with your specialist and like them then I can understand wanting to stick with them. I hope you find some insurance that doesn't cost an arm and a leg 🤔

Re: not coping

yeah it makes it really hard @Snowie so far im still lucky enough to see my nurse in person but my gp is only doing phone consults, same as my specialist (Unless its for a procedure of course) just to reduce interactions between people.

i jsut joined up with bupa, its only 33 a fortnight and has everything i would need/use (unless im needing a joint replacement anytime soon!) so ill start with that for now. i know i can always cancel if i need/want to in the future. so im covered for any hernia or digestive repairs/tests, gynaecology as thats always an issue, dental surgery if i need another one of those in the next yr or more so those are my main 3/4 right now. i am with a different insurance company for my extras cover as its actually really good cover so i want to stay with them but good to have hospital on the side incase i need it
