So while this is not directly crohn's related, because I'm immune suppressed it is making it all worse. I had an allergic reaction which lead to an infection around a month ago. I never could get a doctor to examine me because the allergic reaction was in the genital area and apparently in the UK doctors pick and chose who they will see. anyways I ended up in the ER and was admitted to the hospital for a few days. Now about 5 days after my last dose of pred. the infection has come back and once again I can't get in to see a doctor for at least 1 week. By then I will probably be back in the ER with the way this infection has progressed in the last 3 days. I am just getting really frustrated with the NHS. They have been extremely unhelpful and at times have blamed me for the fact that they can't examine me. This is more of a vent post than anything, but I'm to the point of flying back to the states just so I can get some actual medical help.
