    Right, start stuffing your mud into Kilner jars and flog it at the end of your drive as 'Pure Cornish Cleansing Beauty Clay', that should bring in a few pennies. I'm glad to hear you didn't attempt to decorate the hawthorn, that can wait until another day and as for her Ladysheep, well, I'm clattering off to the Co-op later to see what they have to offer in the way of bubbles - Lambrusco, anyone? DD

    PS That just hit me - Lambrusco! boom-boom! Oh Mr Derek!

    Hi Cris

    hope the weather drops and you are feeling well enough to do the hawthorne very soon.

    I know it makes you happy to see it all lit and sparkling :grin: .

    You deserve that treat, but lass you do have to be careful and not sure you should let Val up that ladder nor the girls drink lambrusco x:lol:

    Love and hugs (sun is out her and it's BITTER)

    Hope today is a better day both pain wise and weather.
    Like toni we have sun melting the frost but it is still bitterly cold.

    Lambrusco dd, I will have a glass please, I know I don't drink and do get rather silly if I do but wish's birthday is a great excuse x:-D

    Love & hugs ((((((())))))))

    Val, DD, Joan, Suzy, Poppy, Toni, Jule and All

    straight away i need a bit of advice/input of you good folk please?

    got edema.... major one at that.... both legs but its not fluid in the normal way (see i do remember the waggon training :lol: ) it hard..... really solid and so cold.....

    have rubbed the feet, put on extra thick thermals, Frankie's boots (only inside out there is real deep mud now) and also made the legs work a bit././. well a lot actually.....

    anyone got any ideas if this is part of vasculitis... Toni i have got that starting again i think and poss in the arms as well.....

    are supposed to rest the legs or use them given its 80% sure its circulatory...... or not.... :lol:

    i have lathered them with gell to try and get some blood in em as well cus being cold don;t help them does it.....

    the other thing....

    the neck is horrendous but easing the shoulder is crap and the twitching is driving me mad.... was tested for CP a while ago and well how long after can you ask for the tests to be re-done... and is thee any point to have it done ... what are they going to do with all the problems from the neck and shoulder....

    you reckon its time i had a word with the pain doc?

    i let the girls out so far.... we now have sun and the frost has made it wet under foot again so they haven't come out at all.... Wish has moved to sit in the doorway and seems to be holding 9very refinery i must say) a glass of lambrusco..... :lol:

    she said pink champers is better :wink:

    Bre is lurking and possibly wondering just how she can jump over the door blocker :lol:

    I haven't done the lights yet but will try and get the legs to get me out and up the steps cus using them (to me ) can only help... but am i right.... :lol:

    you all stay warm cus its some cold now and leaving hugs, tea and hopes as well as copious amounts of slurp and slobber from the canine contingent........ love Cris xxx

    Please see if you can get in touch with the pain doc? Meanwhile, you know the candle is burning brightly, sending you all the love and light that i can muster. Love, gentle hugs and im asking the light for extra for you . Xxxx

    Cris, you need A & E love, and I think you know that deep down. Vasculitis is serious, and needs assessment and treatment. Its not the kind of thing you leave especially with all your other conditions and meds. I am sure its the last thing you want to hear, but I find when I ask for advice and don't want to go to the doc it is usually the time you need to go. (If that makes sense)

    Keep warm, and rest up with gentle movement, no strenous stuff. Keep the pa's informed as to how you get on. Please get checked.

    (((hugs))), loves, warm wishes x

    HI folks - offered to do evening PA duties for Cris but didn't mean to be this late logging on :oops: :oops: computer decided to crash :roll:

    Cris wanted me to thank you all for your concern and advice. I can honestly say she's listening and knows that you are all giving very good advice.

    Cris has promised me that she will get help for her legs on Monday at the latest. She has been very good and has done only the very bare minimum today, helped by visitors who insisted she put her feet up :grin: . Apparently the elevation has helped somewhat.

    I did make her promise that if there was any deterioration she'd ring the out of hours GP service, rather than wait until she can get her own GP. (The sad thing as many of you know is that those of us who have complicated medical histories get rather reluctant to seek advice from 'strangers' because it's so flippin complicated a story to tell :roll: )

    Anyway, Cris is now warmly tucked up with the heated blanket, and is safely away from the armchair :smile: mind it must be catching because yesterday I did an hour of unscheduled 'sofa-ing' which appears to be almost as dangerous :wink::lol: )

    The hawthorn is still unadorned - a fact that many of us will be relieved to read! Hopefully later in the week Cris will have less pain and more energy (not to mention less mud!!) in order to complete that task.

    Cris sends hugs and thanks, along with a bucket of stay warm .... half drunk :shock: :lol::lol:

    Hi Cris,
    I do hope you have had some relief from your poor legs, as I lay person I would say you are doing right by elevating your legs and yes please make an appointment first thing tomorrow. I don’t suppose the mud fight will have done anything to help matters and I am pleased the hedge lights have been left until you are feeling a little better. They will look fantastic when you get them sorted but there is time yet so please leave it until you have had your appointments.

    I am so pleased the OT have come up trumps for you, I am sure they are used to fighting their way through mud and even worse so don’t put them off if they want to come out to see you.

    I have knitted a lovely sparkly scarf for the birthday girl and of course a box of custard creams to be passed round the rest of the gang and hopefully the staff. x:lol:

    I am thinking of you,

    Hugs as always,
    Lv, I x

    Hello my lovely, I hope things are at least a little eased today but that you WILL go and see someone, yes? (And by someone I mean a doctor not a friend! :smile: ) I am thinking of you. ((())) xx DD
