I'm sorry to hear, I think maybe you should pop down to the Emergency Ward and get something sorted.
You shouldn't be having to figure out how to get help while your health is deteriorating.
Is there anything we can help or do for you to get your health back on track?
Thanks, I have been to the ER repeatedly but unfortunately Iβm 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

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.
I know that feeling - but go anyway. Some hospitals have a patient advocate that can help you. Do it for your kittyβ¦
