Diagnosed today! Age 44

Diagnosis: England

I am finally official. I cried when the assessor told me. I put my forms in to my doctor in November through right to choose.

I've only told my mum so far. God I don't know how I feel.

My assessor was so lovely she said she has seen a lot of women my age who were missed as children. Having spoken to her I realised there where so many more symptoms that I hadn't even realised.

I'm tired. I'm confused. I don't know what to do next.

For anyone unsure about going to the doctors. I was scared at first. I was scared I would diagnosed and also that I wouldn't be diagnosed.

❤️
