Yantan Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Snow I agree with Griff about going private to start with. I did that when I was miserable with what turned out to be a type of psorasis that was mis-diagnosed. I saw the NHS dermatologist at a private hospital, he was stotting that my GP practice hadn't referred me to him right at the start. I saw him on a Thursday and was admitted to the NHS hospital first thing Monday morning. Best money I ever spent. Yay! It's stopped raining here, thank dawg. That'll give the whole area a bit of respite and allow the flood waters to recede a little, although it looks like more rain is expected. Has anybody else been affected by the flooding? I hope not and that you are all well, warm and dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooster Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Glad the rain has subsided a bit Marion - thinking of you up there Snow, I'd get yourself to a&e if it gets worse, one of the girls at work has endometriosis and she lived with it for years before getting it checked out (she thought it was normal after having kids). She was in horrendous pain at work the other day, so ended up in a&e - she was admitted to the obs and gynae ward and seen by a consultant the same day. Look after yourself Griff :grouphug: Last night at my first Christmas party of many, I had to drive as I had no lift and blue was getting his hair cut this morning, so needed my car this morning. Guess what??!! The girl who was supposed to be clipping Blue has cancelled So I could have had a drink and left my car at work overnight after all Never mind. I have plenty more parties lined up over the next couple of weeks (one of the perks of working in a few different places - I get to go to all the different parties ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yantan Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Ruby met a woman with her little dog in her arms just up the road from us. She was trying to get to the wood to let Archie have a run round. The woman warned her to be careful where she took Archie as her dog came home after his morning walk and was sick and then started fitting. The woman was on her way to the vets with him. There is sewage mixed in with the mud that's covering a lot of roads in town so he may have picked something up. Of course the little dog getting ill could all be unrelated but better to be on our guard than not. Our water pressure is low and down to a trickle upstairs. I have filled some utensils in case it goes off all together. I could kill the kid from the house opposite us at the back. He thumps a football up against the next door's garage door and any wall he can. It sounds awful. A bouncing football always has been something I hate to listen too. It really grinds my gears.

snow Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Thanks everyone - *fingers crossed* I have yet to take any pain killers at all today I last took naprosyn and another dose of codine at midnight so they should all have been out of my system for a while now. I didn't sleep too bad though I could only lay flat on my back and I woke twice in the night however unlike the past few nights when I did wake I needed a wee (I know tmi lol) and I went straight back to sleep I am keeping my fingers tightly crossed that perhaps it WAS a kidney stone after all - GP thinks fibroids or cysts but outside chance of a kidney stone - only time will tell.

merledogs Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I have just watched Minions. Very disappointing. I am now off to do some tidying up for when new sofa is delivered (and also do something about getting rid of the current sofa). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophie Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Snow, glad you're feeling a bit better today - hope it stays that way Yantan, glad to hear you haven't flooded, but how upsetting for all those who have Griff, hope you're feeling better soon Nice sofa Alex I've managed to get quite a lot done this weekend - rearranged the furniture in the bedroom, caught up on the filing (hadn't been done since May!), transformed two beanbags and an empty dog bed cover into half a bean bag and a filled dog bed (plus a lot of polystyrene balls everywhere!), and had several decent walks with the dogs. On this afternoons walk we went somewhere new-ish, and met up with my mum and Morse and Buzz. Kia and Buzz had great fun running around and got absolutely filthy - Logan was on lead much to his disgust. Unfortunately there seems to have been some sort of irritant in either the ground or the lake, as since we got back both Kia and Buzz have been chewing at their feet and frantically digging at the carpet They've both had a bath and a piriton, and Kia has just managed to settle down after an hour of upset. We won't be walking there again any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Delighted to report I am still medication and pain free slept most of the night through as well. I am still feeling very tired but I suspect that probably is a touch of anemia combined with the poor sleep etc over the past week or so, fingers crossed a couple of naps and some decent sleep and I'll be all back to normal. If this does flare up again in a couple of weeks I will give serious thought to going private though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Glad your pain has eased Snow. Ruby is going to London today on business but she's going to have to drive to Preston to catch the train as there are no trains running north from Preston. She normally catches it at Penrith which is a nice easy 20 minute drive and has ample car-parking at the station. I've got a Tesco delivery booked for sometime over the next hour but I am wondering if they will make it. Did you all know that a car will start to float in just 2 feet of water?
