Sleeping a lot and GP cancelled appointment!

Hello.

We are waiting for my partner to have a GP appointment however due to only have 2 doctors at the surgery and one is off ill, his appointment has been cancelled. 

I'm terrified. He sleeps a lot more now, he walks the dogs and does some stuff still, but he used to Potter and clean and would love doing that at every opportunity, now and I think I've only just noticed the change today really when I think back through the past few months but he has definitely began to be more sleepy, irritable and just overall exhausted. I feel so sorry for him, I hate this is happening and at the moment we have no hope for answers.

Any help would be appreciated they said the doctors appointment may be weeks away.

  • Hello Concernedtwinflame9194,

    I'm sorry to hear how you're feeling.

    While you're waiting for an appointment, it can be a worrying time and it's natural to think the worst, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better. It's important to focus on other things in these next few weeks, so It's encouraging that your partner is sleeping well and is still continuing some activities. We also have some advice around coping with waiting for news on our website.

    I hope this helps and that the appointment goes ok when it comes,
