Debs thats awfull for you, no I'm fed up now can't get in to see my gp till the 19th August :roll: so will just have to plod on till then.

cant you get an earlier appointment or emergency. I cant see them saying that lack of sleep & exhaustion wouldnt be a good reason for earlier appointment. People get them for less important things.

I'm sure Bubbles said it was fungai. She is not herself at the moment I don't think, she said it was very painful also splitting open and was very sore.

Evening everyone, Debs, Trish, and all those who are here, but I have missed. Hugs for all.
Glad that your Son is coming over Trish, that is wonderful news.

Debs, have you caught my pompholyx? I hope not, I have never had anything like it and it is flaring up all over again, with blisters and lumps appearing, before the old ones are healed over. This isn't fungal, it is a form of eczema. I am keeping an eye on my foot, the split, where the blisters were, is getting quite deep, so nurse is watching for any infection like a hawk. I have dimethicone cream as well as betnovate now, to try and hydrate the scabbed areas. Give it another few days and I will be back, yet again, to the Drs, sometimes it needs steroid tablets to get a lid on it.

You are right Trish, I am not myself at the moment, don't know what it is. I think I am still getting used to the high dose of pregabalin, which is ok one minute, then wipes you out the next. Probably still recovering from all the hospital visits, family being ill. My sleep pattern is all to pot, I go into a coma now at night, then if I am late up, all my meds are out of sync and I am not right all day. I feel bad for not writing on the LWA pages and not saying hi to the new people, it isn't personal, I just cannot do it at the moment.

Anyway, we went out for lunch today, which was nice, in laws are coming tomorrow for the day, to look at a property nearby, which we have been to nosey at and it is lovely. They want to move nearer to us, which will be good.

OH has had a fuss round, I did a bit of flicking the duster, not that we are ever untidy, OH is well trained, bless. Have a nice carrot cake for tomorrow and will be out to lunch again, I am spoilt.

XXXX Bubbles.

Hi bubbles sorry you are suffering too, ((((hugs)))) to you. Debs my gp is on hloiday and comes back the same day I go to the hossy for my treatment, an as she only works 1 day aweek I will have to wait. I could see another doctor but I would rather see her as she understands me so well.

Hi Julie, it's one thing and then another, but, that's the way things go at the moment. Hope you are ok. I know what you mean about seeing your own GP, one day a week, that is very part time.

Hi Rose, I am not usually one for hot chocolate, but, this time, I think I will take up the offer, oodles of mini marshmallows will be lovely on top of the fresh whipped cream. XX

Hi Bubbles, sorry your not good, it knocks the stuffing out of me all this. The pains bad enough but with the Fibro all ive had is infection after infection. I had a good 4months trying to get on top of sinisitus,then this foot thing is reoccurring. Ive got Trimovate for it & luckily have 2 tubes from previous infections. Whats come up on me hands is exactly the same as feet, now its peeling like dry skin taking the blisters with it.
I have to keep blisteze & Zofoakc(sp) in the house for the cold sores & me face is a right mess when i get them,i dont even go out. :oops: vaseline i was told is good for the sores up nose & only thing that has cleared mine up.Got it up there now as nose is breaking out again. :oops: :roll:
I must up the pregabs past 200mg twice a day,im just hate the high bit & having to be watched like a hawk. OH says anyone would think im p....d on the 300mg twice a day & im diffo not safe on me own :roll:plus i slur me words :shock:

Thanks for the pocket duty. Debs no it is NOT you, it is the weekend Debs everyone with family so they don't come on here also lots of peep going away today for the holidays.

Yes we are the ones who are not sensible :shock: :shock: If I go up now I will not sleep also have to wait for night meds to try and get through the night.

Yes it does seem to have come through quick doesn't it? They phoned me, I was going to think at least a letter so that was what yesterday no day before yesterday.

Quicker I have it the quicker it is over, wish I knew if i have to undress, I don't know what you do.

I sippose I will have to take my wedding bands off I hate that.

Love Trish xxxx

Hi Rose

How are you?? Have you had a drink yet? Would you like one?

Hi Bubbles

See you still not too good. It is because of your immune systems that is why it has not gone.

Oh yes, two flakes if they will fit in.

Hi Rose I would love a hot chocci drink thankyou eh bubbles must be nice working one day aweek :roll: I ache all over not sure if I'm getting a cold.

Julie xx

bubbles

It is horrid Debs, I know how you feel and perhaps I have rushed the pregabalins, now on 400 a day, still a way to go, 600 is what the rheummy wants me on, I am not sure if I can take that to be honest. I have trouble putting a sentence together sometimes.

You must have the herpes cold sore virus that keeps popping up, moreso when you are tired and run down, they are horrid when they affect your nose too.

We are a pair, we need a week at a health spa, being pampered and petted. I will be bubblesdevere for a week.

Bubbles

Don't feel bad about not writing on LWA they would all understand that you do not feel too good.

You cannot write to everyone. When you feel better you will do it again, concentrate on getting yourself better then you can write on there.

Hey Bubbles got my MRI Scan date 14th August. Do you know id I will have to undress???

love Trish xxx

minky67

Hi trish, Dont worry i got mine though pretty quick too & had it done on a saturday :shock:
Yes you have to take all jewellery off but you dont have to undress, well most dont. you can wear headphones & dont worry i get closasphobic (sp) but i shut me eyes as i went in. was in about 45mins & you can press the panic button & they will stop if you need it. Ive had 3 now & i suffer with panic attacks.

That is quick. You need to wear a hossy gown, no jewellery, pins, needles, no metal at all. You can keep panties on, but a bra is likely to have metal bits in, so a vest top would be ok. xx

trisher

Now I have an idea I will open a spa on here you can have complimentary Sparring.

Debs want to come to my Spa I will open Rose how about you???

Hi Trish,

I was just doing the honours so if you would like a hot choccie with all the trimmings....?

Hi Minky,

Sorry to hear you going through it too! hope you soon feel better. Does it happen because of the fibro? I have recently been diagnosed with fibro on top of OA hypermobility and spondi wotsit!

Rose x

Oh yes, let's have a spa. I will take a thalassotherapy session first, to ease the muscles, then be covered in sea weed and wrapped in tin foil like a chicken.

Spondylosis, spondolitis, I don't know, spondi wotsit, lol. Sorry, nurse Bubbles was being fussy. Hot chocolate it wonderful, thanks Rose, full sized flakes too, even better.

trisher

Rose

Yes please my turn tomorrow night. Are you ok Rose?

Debs

They said roughly hour and a half. If you press the panic button it it all over? Do they carry on again?

Does the couch shudder at all? It is those sort of things that make me move, I mean having no legs the slightest movement makes me slip down in bed those sort of things.

If I turn my head in bed or move my arm they graduallly make ms slide.

Do you have to drink any meds???

Trish xxx

trisher

I have Cervical Spondylosis, also Scolosis in the spine.

What is hypermobility??
