Worked several jobs, including in a nursing home. Got thyroid cancer and the treatment caused me to have a stroke and many other health issues. Thanks to the stroke I’m now partially sighted, can’t walk properly and can no longer work. Also have chronic foot infections and migraines. NHS treatment is so awful it has made my health worse rather than better. My local pharmacist tells me I’m a drain on the NHS because my medications cost so much. Got awarded disability benefits until 2028, but still waiting for the backpay and payments to start. Absolutely penniless and in debt.

5·5 days agoA lot of people who’ve been privileged in life like to imagine that they earnt it and that more unfortunate people deserve their poor fates too.
2·5 days agoI wonder if this is what happened to Atlantis.
Haha, thank you, I hope so.
Marigold gloves and a binbag, pull it out by hand. Cheaper than getting a plumber.
Not good. Having allergic reactions to my meds, a UTI that won’t clear up and need more foot surgery. And my migraines are flaring up.
I don’t know enough about it to comment.
You mean AMOC as in the climate thing?
May the workers finally rise up.

This is exactly what happened to me. GPs refused to do any tests for nearly 4 years, saying I was too young for it to be anything serious. Eventually my employer paid for me to get tests at a private hospital. Turned out to be thyroid cancer.
