I feel like I’m falling apart at my joints. I’m in so much pain every day.

My gp doesn’t seem to care. He did refer me to the rheumatologist department after I dislocated a finger, but they rejected the referral. So I’m now stuck with nothing but a gp telling me to take paracetamol.

I’ve taken in so much research and linked together my other symptoms and illnesses (endo, PMDD, varicose veins, etc) but they say it’s all unrelated and that I need separate appointments for each symptoms. I feel like I’m going insane talking to them.

I’ve had as much private PT as I can afford and I have purchased knee braces, wrist brace, ring splints and numerous books on hypermobility.

What more can I do to get professional help?
