Going through similar myself at the moment and tend to feel I am being a pain if I go back to the Doc. too. Mostly due to getting a bit older I suspect - eek. At least the basic tests have not shown up anything untoward.

I think you're right that many doctors now do seem to be very dismissive as we get older. I feel lots of it sadly is to do with funding.<br /><br />Your card is beautiful.

You have coloured those tulips beautifully. Would love to know what you think about the quality of the SN watercolour pencils, I've read so many reviews some really good and some really bad. It doesn't help when that's the case as I have limited crafting funds and don't want to purchase a supply to then realise the quality is not that great lol!<br /><br />Sadly I know what you and mean about doctors. I've complained to GP & previous RA consultant about burning heat and pain in my hands & both said 'it's your fibro/RA'. A new RA consultant last year so I complained to her, she thought RA but sent for tests just in case. <br /><br />Had tests a couple of weeks ago and the junior doctor commented on how hot my hands were and she had not had anyone with hands that hot before as it's usually her hands that are the hottest. It turns out that I have carpal tunnel, not great news but I was so ludicrously happy that I tested positive, lol, because they've been saying it's your RA/fibro and it isn't!<br /><br />Naughty Milo chewing your cashmere, it's awful when they do that, been there and done it lol! xxKaren Petitt https://www.blogger.com/profile/12744994134996508387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-358609042692535536.post-71495213695982142092017-01-30T16:02:10.650+00:002017-01-30T16:02:10.650+00:00Gorgeous card Kate, love the tulips and colour pal...Gorgeous card Kate, love the tulips and colour palette, good luck in the challenge.<br />Hugs<br />Linda xxxLinda Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15180736604435426888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-358609042692535536.post-53166173158013344272017-01-30T15:49:11.453+00:002017-01-30T15:49:11.453+00:00What a beautiful card Kate.
