Thanks for this, a very eloquent and brave young lady, I have been diagnosed with this too, my Gp’s missed it for over 6 months until I was finally sent to hospital for tests. However it must be said Im very impressed by the level of care at the hospital since going.
Thanks Claire for making this film, my Daughter was diagnosed two years ago at the age of 11. She has had a rough couple of years. So glad you are feeling much better.
It’s good to know you are well.
I hope the NHS help more people as they are there to do it. Too many people slipping through the net and also getting a very basic ’service’ from an organisation that has deteriorated to a very unsavoury image and practise.
This girl is lucky she got help, it would be nice to know her experience because i was in hospital awhile ago and it was bloody awful. uncaring rough nurses, filthy rooms wards and rooms. i hope to god when i’m old i’m not at their mercy omg
