Wow that's a tall order Joy as there is soooo much and soooo many gaps. I will try to give the main threads as this may help me!! I probably can't answer any questions as they will be things I need to ask.
Presenting Complaint was acne but she only had a few well picked at spots on a very scarred face. She is 39, on her 3rd marriage- in the first 2 she was abused , this one is very happy.
"I am obsessionally tidy."
Osteoarthritis - shoulder spine, knee and hips. She takes medication to stop the pain.
B12 deficiency - Injections once every 2 months.
"At the beginning of the week my whole face was swollen. This happens now and again since I was bitten by a wasp.
Acne - tiny boils, sometimes a head which is white pus, around the nose yellow pustules. She has had 4 courses of Roaccutane, the last being a year ago. She has been on Dianette for the acne.
Pernicious anaemia
Hypothyroid and is on 100mg thyroxin
Allergies - sneezing early afternoon. Her eyes run and are itchy and sore. This is all year round and curled up. I feel as if everything is going to fall out. My breasts are swollen before a period and sometimes they are swollen for the whole month. I have had scans and there is nothing wrong. The pill didn't agree with me as I put on weight and had mood swings. I was sterilized at 23. I have cysts on my right ovary and small fibroids at the top of the womb. I have had precervical cancer cells and been lasered twice and I have had coloscopies. That's why I want a hysterectomy to get that bit out of the way."
Pregnancies and birth were normal.
Headaches - "I get migraines with zig zag before hand and sometimes it doesn't get to the pain. When it does I feel like hitting my head. It feels like I have been kicked. My brain is sore. It is the top and sides and sometimes the back. I want dark and quiet and support my head in my hands. I don't want anything to eat or drink. Leave me alone. It comes every few months."
Digestion - "I have been told I have a hiatus hernia. I get a burning sensation. It's like everything comes up to my neck. I had it a couple of nights ago and I take Losec 40mg.
Itching - "now and then < at night when I get overheated and I have to change my place in bed. I have to sleep by an open window.
Nails split and break. "Since I was young I have had no nail on ring finger of my left hand. Sometimes it grows and sticks out." Her nails are flat.
Bowels - "I have IBS- low down pain. When I get it I alternate between constipation and diarrhoea. It kicks off when I am upset."
"My first marriage was annulled as there was never any sex after the marriage. I was treated horribly and was raped when he was drunk which was how I got pregnant. She should have been twins but I was battered. Then with the second marriage came the other 2 children. He was hitting me and my daughter. I ran away. I packed the children off in a van and we moved for 6-8 months until I was strong enough to go to the courts and get my house back as it was my house. I did file for divorce once before with him but He told me I was lucky that anyone would take me on. Then I had my miracle baby as sex wasn't penetrative. He was very domineering. I married for the 3rd time and have never been happier."
"I've not got a high opinion of myself. I would be happiest at the top of a mountain. I'm a recluse and need to be where I can't hurt anyone and they can't hurt me. I gauge people's feelings.
"At primary school I was the class clown. Then I got bullied at secondary school.
"I work as a cleaner now in a school. I avoid people. I like gardening. I go walking with the dog. I walk the other way if there are people around. Sometimes when I am in company I can make people laugh. I love kids and little people."
"7 years ago I was a support teacher for special need. I had a nervous breakdown. We moved to Ormskirk. It was a family problem with my sister lying about me. I had to get away from everyone. I was on Roaccutane. The last time I was on it was a year ago. I wrote my sister a letter 5 years ago and said that this is silly. We made up but I will never trust her.
