I remember when my doctor thought I was being fussy.

I was dealing with severe anxiety, lost tons of weight, had diahorra often, every time I ate something it triggered severe stomach pains.
The year before I had meningitis and was in intensive care for 2 weeks, during that time my spleen stopped working...
I was panicking... They sent me for a colonoscopy.
Turns out I had ibs but my mucus levels were high and there was a pH imbalance...
I had to change my diet and eat all the rubbish crap that we all hate.
They prescribed me this probiotics that cost an arm and a leg.
But imagine had it been something else...
My body was really out of wack after the meningitis... It was a lot to deal with if I'm honest.

The reason I'm posting this is because they've been talking about bowl cancer again as levels are rising go and get checked if you suspect anything out ordinary

Please please if theyre not taking you seriously write to your gp manager. Gem went through 3 years of misdiagnosis and has lost her hearing pretty much. Its tough.
We wrote to the gp practice manager they then after 2 weeks referred her to ent. It was too late but she's getting the answers she needs now .
Dont let it carry on babe x
