Dear @Erin,
Thank you for reaching out. I see you posted this last night so you may have already taken some action but I would strongly encourage you to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Are you able to get yourself to A&E, can someone take you? Alternatively you can call 999 for an ambulance. These symptoms really do need to be reviewed.
Please do let us know how you get on.
Take good care,
Heidi (Support Services Nurse)

I got it checked im ok, im on Asprin a year, the consultant is deciding if he is going to put me treatment, my blood pressure is through the roof and platelet s are at 1345 on Thursday, had a bit of a meltdown this morning reading the leaflet s on treatment, but thank you for your advice and concern
