Difficult

The pain is quite horrible. It's always harder to handle at nighttime. I get really depressed. The doctors still haven't really been doing much to make sure I'm comfortable. It just gets in the way of sleep and eating normally. I made the point of focussing on eating and taking sleep seriously. Sometimes I wish these doctors could have this so they'd stop dilly dallying and make sure some of the pains were sorted do I could focus on the basics. They dont have an interest or even care.
They prescribed me antibiotics which was stupid. They don't seem to be open to what could actually be causing the pain. I try to help them but they don't really listen. If they're going to be so barrow minded then they'll always fail people in pain and continue to be clueless about the psychological distress it causes. They don't even understand how it makes you angry. They don't understand anything.

Have you had a reply from PALS about the complaint you made?
Have you been able to get your gingivitis under control? I think you said you'd been referred to get your teeth and gums looked at and cleaned, is that right?

Slightly concerning though that I was telling them where I got it from. I bought this Vaseline product from Amazon marketplace and when I used it this yellow 'stuff' clung to my skin. I tested vaseline elsewhere and in chemists and clearly it's not a problem that other people get so I'm not sure how it caused me this skin infection. Anyway, thats when I got it. In 2015. I contacted Amazon but they won't do anything until I have a confirmed diagnosis. That's why it was so distressing because the GP surgery has only just taken a skin sample and the dermatology appointment was meant to be in June but is now January.
