I've been in and out of my GP since March about bowel problems. I was referred at the beginning but was on a long waiting list. I suddenly got period problems in June and all tests came clear. I suddenly got urine problems this month and all tests again came clear. My bowel symptoms worsened and now I'm on a 2ww suspected cancer referral for that.
I'm wondering if during this time, it's still okay to go them about a different problem?
I'm scared they're going to think that I just keep going to them and it's one problem after another. I feel like it sounds like I'm faking my symptoms, since my tests come clear but I don't understand how they come clear when I can literally see and suffer from the symptoms. (heavy and prolonged vaginal bleeding and incontinence).
The other problem is about my knee which I haven't gone to them about. My right knee's been clicking since June 2021 but it wasn't that painful so I didn't care. In the past few months, it became moderately painful when walking up and down the stairs or sitting/standing up from sitting but it wasn't unbearable. But now in the last few days, it becomes severely painful when I least expect it.
The other day, I went to feed my cat and squatted and then I screamed in pain as my right knee felt so stiff and sore. I also screamed in pain today when I walked down the stairs and when I bent to collect something. I'm just scared now whenever I'm about to bend/ straighten my leg, I don't know if this is a proper problem I should go to them about or if I should wait to see if it goes.
I'm finding this knee pain worse than my bowel problems.
