I am suffering with internal bleeding on my right kidney, and have been since the last week of October last year. This causes swelling on my back, traces of blood in my urine (can't see red blood, yet the urine is cloudy and brighter, my GP tested it and told me it's blood). It is getting slowly more and more painful every day, I have seen 8 doctors at my local GP's surgery, I have had 2 scans, and am awaiting the result of a blood test. However, I am sick to death of waiting, as each step is taken weeks apart, scans are booked 2 months in advance, etc. This internal bleeding is causing me to miss work (I work 12 miles away from home and have to catch a bus) and whenever I am at work it is really troublesome and inconvenient if I need to dash off if I have an appointment. Any advice on what I can do? Should I miss out work altogether until it's sorted?
