Can only sympathise, Rob. As a side effect, I just hope it's one of those which wears off for you........have they given you any mouthwashes etc?
Annie0 -
Yes got mouthwashes........
Good old salt water still seems to be best.....
But they are so bad now.....
Probably start to heal Sunday evening.....
Then I can take another dose of poison.....
And start all over again.....Rob0 -
HI Rob

hope the new year heralds better times to come for you

Morning Rob, I hope all is as well as it can be today. I reckon those ulcers are here to stay - your poor body is under such an attack at the moment that it can't mend itself, can it? Keep up with the salt water if it helps, even if it is just a little: you are doing OK Rob, you really are coping well. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

I believe in the salt walter rinses, too. Was quite surprised recently when a doctor agreed with me! It's not really something I plug as it tends to be dismissed as an old wives' tale.
Best of luck with the journey through next year, Rob.
Love

I am thinking of you, very, very much. Tonight's dose was horrific, I am concerned, worried and somewhat distressed, which I know is utterly useless info. But I am, so why deny it? There is nothing I can do, nothing I can say. I can't help in any way, shape or form, but I am thinking of you. DD xxxHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Morning Rob. Smack the VB in the face, repeatedly. Don't let her win. TOY. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Sickness started at 4.20.......
I'm sitting in front of fire shivering....
(well me and Dill the dog are fighting for best place)
Legs feel like jelly.....
Guess I wont be running any marathons today.....Rob0 -
Are you shivering with cold or stress, or a ghastly mixture of both? Have you a blanket you can wrap round yourself? I know it means fetching it - I wish to god someone was there with you to do all the things that could help - gives a hollow laugh - what things? Nothing's gonna help this one, is it? Drape a dog round your neck instead, they tend to be warm, if somewhat heavy. It will pass, Rob, all things do but it will take its time. Raise two fingers to the VB. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Hi Rob. I know today must have been rough for you in a way that is far beyond our imaginings. I am thinking of you, very much. I hope that it begins to diminish soon, that the initial onslaught is losing its strength. I suspect, however, that that is a vain hope. I am so sorry. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Morning Rob (I dispensed with the 'good' - didn't seem appropriate). How's hell looking today? A little less intense, I hope. DD xHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Morning Rob
I really do hope that things are feeling a little better today,

I can honestly say, yesterday was the worse day of my 58 years...........
I thought I'd felt ill before......
But yesterday was on another level.......
And this is the cure???????
Today has been much better....
Well compared to yesterday........
Thanks everyone.....
Your support is greatly appreciated....Rob0 -
You poor, poor man. I have no idea what you have been thro, and yes, sometimes the cure is worse than the disease. You have had three of the six doses, yes? Half-way thro, then, in terms of medication, not quite half-way thro in terms of the effects, but you are getting there. You will beat this, Rob, you will. Tomorrow stands a chance of being a slightly better day than today, and I sincerely hope it is. I don't do this often, as many can testify, so brace yourself. (()) DDHave you got the despatches?

Oh bless Rob...we will be here for you, if we become a pain just say.
Wishing you well

You can do this Rob, you probably don't want to, but you can and will beat it.
Love, Linda XXLove, Legs x

Good luck with today, Rob. I hope you are able to do the things you wish to do, despite the VB popping up from time to time. You carrying on is a good way to smack her in the face! DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

So, the VB has nearly been kicked into touch, which is a good thing. Enjoy your day, Rob, I hope it's a good 'un and bountiful. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0
