That definitely sounds like fibroids to me. I had one many years ago. At first I was told I was too young to have fibroids (I was 27). Then, when I was examined, it couldn't be detected at first because my uterus was retroverted. Once they found out it was a humungous fibroid, I was swiftly cured (with a big operation, but it did the trick). If I were you, I would ask for a second opinion

Oooooh, how exciting, that's just down the road from me. I'll try to pop along & see you What time will you be there? Word of warning - that garden centre is ALWAYS very very busy and the last Sunday before Christmas, it is likely to be mayhem there

I think you might have a virus. I've just had an email from someone called charliegooster. At first I thought it was you, but when I read it, I thought it wasn't. Fortunately I didn't open the attachment, so I don't think it's infected me

Any news yet? I'm sincerely hoping that no news is good news

I bought mine from here: http://www.gasandhireltd.com/index.php for £274.99 with free delivery. I then had to buy a gas bottle at a cost of just over £56. However, I have just found out that Calor have now introduced a special offer of £299.99 including a gas bottle with free delivery, so it's worth contacting Calor direct about it.

I looked at that one too, but it's about £100 more than the Calor Provence and I personally think the Provence is more attractive.

I have just bought this one: http://www.lpg-portable-heaters.co.uk/prov...lame-heater.htm and I LOVE IT!

I tend to withdraw from people when I am upset or have a serious problem about something. Although I withdraw, I do find it helpful to know that friends are there for me when I am ready to talk about it. It may help your boyfriend to know that you will be there when he's ready too. In my case, it's only when it's something serious that I withdraw. When I just have minor problems I like to discuss them with friends & get their input.

I still haven't found my camera

I didn't realise Laura had gone - I liked her

Oh my goodness! You lot are making me start to feel normal I'm going to get my camera and show you some of my horrors before I sort it all out. As some of you may know, I've just been made redundant, so I am going to try to get my house in some kind of order before I try to find another job. This may take some time............................... I'll be back in a bit with photos

Do you have a friendly local Avon rep? If you do, I suggest you ask her advice and if she's really friendly (like wot I am ) she will either give you some samples to try (which, if you only want to wear make-up for the party, will do just fine) or she will sell you some slap and if you don't intend to wear it again, you can just use it the once & then return it for a full refund. She might even offer to do your make-up for you

double posted

OK, my day wasn't good yesterday because I got made redundant But, getting things in perspective, at least I have no health problems and neither do my dogs, so I am counting my blessings

I'd been intending to see the doctor about my memory problems, but I keep forgetting to ring to make an appointment. Now, I don't need to bother, because those are my symptoms too. Now I've got a name for my disorder, all I need to do is find a cure

Doesn't the Magic Eye thingy need loads of coaxial cable & connecting to your aerial?

I think my signal is pretty strong because I've got a very good picture on channels 3 to 5, BBC1 is a bit blurry, but it's watchable. Only thing is, if I buy a freeview box & can't set it up cos my signal isn't strong enough, I will have wasted money on it because I doubt the shop would take it back if it was just me that couldn't set it up, and I don't want to go to the expense of getting a man in to do it.

I had thought of getting a cheapy digi box for upstairs, but I don't have an aerial upstairs . I may be wrong (cos I don't know much about these sorts of things) but I think you need a proper aerial to connect a freeview digi box. Maybe someone here can tell me different

Thank you for that, I'd tried to find some reviews on t'tinternet, but failed. Looks like it's the cheapy from Argos then

I want to link my downstairs Sky+ box to my bedroom television. I've been looking in the Argos book & I'm a bit boggled by all the variations on this. They also vary in price quite a lot. The thing I'm looking for is the one that connects without wires. I can't do the aerial one because I can't get into my loft & I don't want coaxial cable trailing all round the house Does anyone have any advice on which one to get please?

Is that so that the deer won't recognise you & sneak up on you?

It's beautiful Jayne. I hope you & your doglets will be very happy there

I've had the Carpal Tunnel op in both my hands. The first time I had it was when I was pregnant, 29 years ago. It lasted for a couple of years and I had the op on my right hand when my son was about 2 years old. That op was performed by an Orthopaedic Surgeon. I had to spend one night in hospital and had to have my hand elevated the whole night. I was then discharged but had to keep my hand in a sling for a few weeks. The operation was a complete success and I had no further trouble. Then, a few years ago, I got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in my left hand when I was going through the menopause (apparently it's quite common). This time, the operation was done by a Plastic Surgeon under local anaesthetic. I went into hospital as a "day" patient and didn't even occupy a bed. I was discharged the same afternoon, but my hand was bandaged up like a boxing glove & I had to keep it in a sling for a week or so. I also had to go to my doctor's surgery a few times to have the dressing changed. Again, the op was a total success and I've had no further trouble. I was off work for 3 weeks but during that time, I had no problem walking my dog (although I only had one dog at that time). Fast forward to a couple of years ago and my mother, who was then about 85, got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and went to have the operation. This time, it was done as an outpatient, in a clinic almost like a dentist's surgery. I was actually in the room with her whilst it was being done and was talking to her the whole time. She didn't even have a dressing on the wound and was told to go home and use the hand straight away, even knitting the same night if she wanted to! Surgery has advanced in leaps & bounds in recent years and I would say, if you need it doing, go & get it done, because Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can cause irreversible damage if not treated. Good luck

I have done Avon for almost 13 years . If you live in a village rather than having a few streets in a town as your "territory" it is much easier as you're not competing with other Avon reps It's not really enough earnings wise to rely on as a salary, but it can be profitable, especially round Christmas time. My orders have dropped off a bit recently for several reasons. One is that because I work full time but I'm heading towards retirement, I'm not looking for new customers, so when someone moves away or dies, I don't try to replace them on my customer list. Another reason for declining orders is that with the credit crunch people are cutting down a lot. Once I retire, I intend to build it up to a nice little earner. If you want any information, please feel free to PM me

I started going to Weight Watchers at the end of July last year. Up to last April I'd lost just over 2 stone and I found it really easy. With WW you can have anything you want as long as you count the points. I was never hungry and really enjoyed my food. I decided to stop dieting for a while for various reasons and I've only put on a couple of pounds in the last few months. I've just re-started the diet though. I'm hoping to lose another 2 stones in time for my son's wedding which I hope is going to be in 2010
