Hi I see your post about going private, if you don't mind me asking, was it a lot of money getting all them test? 
 

many thanks 

Hi Alex,

It was expensive, it was £180 but I have a decent income and honestly you cannot put a price on your health. What I do worry about is people who cannot afford that and waiting on their GPs during Covid. I was sitting in the house for almost 2 months worrying about it Googling all sorts, which the Author of this post suggested you do NOT do lol. I tried ringing my GP over the course of 2-3 weeks everyday but they kept telling me to try again tomorrow due to Covid, and when I did get through on the phone they gave me antibiotics and a spray which lasted 10 days. I knew it was not an infection so one night I went F it and googled nearest Private GP and booked the ENT session online for the following day.

I Waited about an hour then got called in and he said nothing to worry about just calcium deposit gathered which is normal. He felt around my throat and inside, which was not pleasant then the camera up the nose down the thorat. Honestly if you cannot get to ur GP I would recommend you go private, you will feel much better after as chances are you are fine. Then you can have a bottle a win and chill lol

All the best!

Thank you, I'm currently waiting for a private clinic to get back to me as I have so many symptoms of something going on, it's driving me mad. Feel like I can't stay off google and I'm getting worse for it, I need to get this sorted, I have two young children to look after, currently having to take time off work because I feel so I'll and low, glad everything was ok with you, put your feet up and enjoy life now 

Yeah but I was also feeling that way, until I done my own head in and said enough is enough. Chances are you are fine, I found being in Lockdown for the better part of a year really exacerbated my OCD and Anxiety to the point where I became a hypochondriac now worrying about every illness and disease. I partly blame the media & scaremongering of the BBC during these times, it is only normal.

Let me know how you get on!

I totally agree with you there, I don't think it helps I work in a care home so everything is covid covid covid, I've spoke to 4 different doctors in the space of 2 weeks all of them have said it might be covid. It's not I get tested 3 times a week. I feel like GP have forgot about all other problems but covid now 

will do, I've got bloods booked in for Wednesday( and that's only because a family friend ( who is a nurse at my GP) said she would do it for me if not I would of had to wait until the 10th for a quick 2 min appointment to take bloods 

Hello kittens in mittens 

I have the exact same as you too

im on antibiotics and mouth drops but it doesn't seem to be getting better, in fact my throat and ear is feeling discomfort, I sent a picture of it to the doctor and she said it looks like tonsil stone but I said no it's not as I suffer with them and it's not the same. I might go private because it's a night mare trying to get someone to see you .
