    Unfortunately, we are not medical professionals so won't be able to give you any medical advice. If you have any concerns you need to speak to your GP.

    Good morning @Paula78 and welcome thanks for reaching out, I've just move your query into our physical conditions category so other members can chat more easily. I hope you've recovered from hospital now, that can't have been pleasant. 

    With this sort of question, we're not qualified to answer, and we cannot give medical advice as Poppy has mentioned.

    Have you had any follow up appointments with your GP since being in hospital? 

    I think it's well worth asking them or asking to be referred to a specialist, as they can help support you on an ongoing basis. 

    Keep us updated with how things go, as we'd be keen to know how you get on :)
