Welcome to my health blog. I am a 29 year old living with a range of strange and confusing medical symptoms and conditions including various functional/neurological disorders, Endometriosis, PCOS, Raynaud's Disease and seronegative Hughes Syndrome. This blog is to document my struggle with doctors and the impact these illnesses have on my life. I hope that in some small way, my experiences will give others who are in similar situations some sort of strength or some form of comfort. Thanks for visiting!

Some may question my choice of title but if you are ill constantly and seem to always have your brain on pain and discomfort that's making your life very difficult, you begin to feel that perhaps you are a hypochondriac or what's worse, that other people see you as one. Whether you are or not, you still feel pain, sadness, and dispair which brings me to this quote from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling:

"Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?" - Albus Dumbledore

Leg... again.

Still hurting when I stand up just above the knee, down the side bit ish. Barely slept, for some reason I'm really worried, silly silly me. I know I shouldn't and it's probably nothing to worry about at all.

Spoke to Dr C secretary just now to clarify my email about the contrasts used in the scan. Mentioned the leg to her and she said if I was worried to contact someone... My GP isn't there but finally decided to call them anyway just to check.. It's stupid I know.. I'm being a massive worrier but I feel better to have called and got that out the way. Just for someone to say 'there's nothing to worry about' will make things better, I'm sure!

Silly me :/
