Hi everyone, saw the nurse today, she thought it wasnt very serious as the redness has gone down now, its still tender to touch and a little painful though.
She said if its still the same on Monday to call GP for an early appt, but not really too concerned.
So hopefully thats it, and nothing to worry about, thanks everyone.
I think I need to cut back on the hours and rest more, she didnt say in so many words to do that, but when I said how many hours I work she was very surprised that I am able to do it, The thing is, I am not really able to do it!!! I just keep going through the pain,and thats why I think I keep feeling ill.
Well, thats about it, take care all love Jay x :)

    Hi Jay,

I am going to say I also am right with you that push it too far and you feel ill BUT you must try and cut back a bit. I can't, I dug my hole 16 yeas ago :wink: I do know though that if you can you must cus I spend so much time in s much pain and feeling sick etc. Luv and a ((( ))) Cris x

    Hi Cris, thanks for reply. I know I have to take this illness more seriously.
    Its just hard to accept, and to tell parents that I wont be able to do it for much longer.
    I dont know your circumstances, and not sure if you want to discuss it her, but if you have made the choice 16 years ago, cant it be changed? You can pm me if you like. Take care Jay x

    Hi Jay,

    Sent yo pm and well I can't really change it just yet. Its just a case of pacing your self they ell me. I have to learn that one :wink: I also know that things will have to change but not yet. I get my neck denerved the end of the month sand that really will help with the feeling sick cus it did last time...... I really hope it wasn't a one off :lol: You take care and I know how hard it can be to slow down but I think, if you can, you should little bit. Luv and a ((( ))) Cris x
