Thanks, I have been to the ER repeatedly but unfortunately I’m not your usual case. The medical system can be pretty broken for anyone atypical.

you said you were having trouble eating and drinking and was becoming dehydrated.

Get them to look after that, just treat symptoms for now

@melbaboutown @Duenan
The health care system is pretty broken for neurotypical people too. Expect long waits with a temporary blanket and bowl of porridge for those that qualify. Later, write to your MP about the lack of funds.
