It's all kind of falling on my head at once, so it is a bit confusing Unfortunately first available appointment with my GP is on 2nd June (so almost 2 weeks)... it's weird, he's usually available much quicker. But maybe the letter will have a chance to arrive in the meantimeThanks Paulina, for posting about this. Yet again I've learned something I didn't know. I had no idea cataracts were related to diabetes only that retinopathy was
I truly hope you get quick appointment and get it sorted out, it must have been scary having this diagnosed so early . Have you told them at work? Maybe they could make adjustments so it is easier for you while waiting for the op ?

I haven't told anyone at work - I adjusted my screens myself and I don't see what else they could do for me: unless I can get a single, half-dark room for myself (but that's not really possible in our office building) I'm thinking about getting a break of work completely, until I can get all my health issues sorted out, but first I'm waiting for some financial stuff to sort out (ie my partner getting a better paid job, so we can manage it without my pay).
So, basically, waiting and waiting for now.
Thanks everyone for this incredible support! I felt miserable that no-one seems to understand how it is, but it's much better to know that I'm not alone
