Every year, around this time, I get ill.
It consists of me being unable to eat or drink, not sleeping, having an upset tummy and throwing up.
The past three weeks were this time for me... I went to A&E but they did blood and told me they couldn't do anything so I ended up visiting my GP everyday for them to do my blood pressure, weight, temperature (and blood) everyday. (The blood wasn't done everyday, it was done every few days - which was not fun for me as my veins run away and hide from needles.)
In the end, when it got to 17 days without eating, I went back to A&E where they did more blood and admitted me for 3-4 days.
If only they'd have listened to me and mummy at first because I've suffered from this 1-2 times a year for about 4 years. I usually get better after they put me on a drip for a couple days and give me anti-sickness injections instead of the tablets - which I just throw up anyway.
ARGHH... Silly doctors!!
*huggle* to everyone!!
Talking about POTS and how it affects my life, a teen struggling through the normal teen stuff with medical problems on top of all that!. Also a way for me to vent and work on my writing skills :)

So, I know it's been a few months since I last posted but I have good reason...
I accidentally 'broke' my thumb. Actually they aren't sure it's broken... Oh, the joys of being hypermobile.
So, a real update; I applied for universities and I'm nervous.
I haven't had any real potsy things happen but I'm still always floopy. :(
*huggles* for everyone!
Ps. I WILL write soon
