Subject: Stupid rheumatologist
I have had enough of the so called rheumatology department in the hospital I phoned up today to get appointment to go to flare clinic ( the so called emergency clinic) there is an advise line that apparently patients can use to get advise every time I use it I get the answer machine one time my mum phoned up for advise they didn't get back to her for three weeks . When I did eventually get through I was told they will try and get me in to the flare clinic . That my blood results have been up for a while No ONE TOLD ME THIS I hate that stupid department I actually don't care anymore what do I have to do to get someone to treat me ? I give up completely what's the point in me helping myself they never help me never coming off my meds maybe then they will listen

Oh Laura I understand, I have the same problem here. I have rang for help in the past and only got answer machines, and no call back!!! We do not have a flare up clinic. My GP will never give me an injection when my knee is huge, even the specialist said she has his permission to do so. But she still won't help. It really is like banging your head against a brick wall at times! Try not to get too depressed, easier said than done... I know. But better times do come.....eventually x

Hi Laura, don't worry about having a good old rant it does you good. This forum is for exactly that. I bet it made you feel better getting it all off your chest as they say. You are more than welcome to rant and rave why shouldn't you we all understand. Take Care X
