"Bipolar and type diabetes"

About: Bromley Healthcare / District nursing

(as the patient),

Since last Summer to mid January this year I had a Bipolar Depressive Episode. I was reliant on attendant District Nurses to maintain my drugs regime including Insulin injections. I also had Essential Tremors. As matters progressed I was also visited weekly by Carla, an Occupational Therapist.

In the early days my one task for the week was to open three items of unopened mail and deal with the content.

Now I am better, I have been Discharged this week and am fully functioning in my job again, attending relevant Meetings and Events.

I am so very grateful to all the nurses and Carla, for their patience, care and consideration.

Nothing could have been better.

Thank you for taking the time to post your positive experiences on Patient Opinion, especially now you are back at work. I am so pleased that with the support of Carla and the nursing team you are back fully functioning!

I will make sure that the team and Carla are aware of your posting.

I hope you continue to be well and don't work too hard!

Kind regards
