    So, I had my blood test today and almost fainted. Then I found out that the doctor has not just ordered one blood test but four!
    The nurse said I can go back on Monday to have the rest. They need to check my general health, thyroid, liver and kidney because of my Anorexia etc.

    My arm really hurts now. =/

    Hi guys! :hello:
    How is everyone?

    Ok, I give up - where's everyone hiding?:confused:
    I know we have our annual lull and drop in posts on the thread at this time every year - people busy with children, holidays, covering at work etc. - but can someone please post? It's one thing to talk to yourself but quite another to post to yourself!:eek: :D
    You should know by now that the Tiffster shouldn't be left alone to her own devices...rolleyes.gif

    Hi anni! :hello:
    Oh hun - poor you! Sorry to hear about the blood tests anni.sLo_hug2.gif
    When you go Monday, try and tell yourself that if you can get through this few minutes, it'll be worth it because you'll have it all over and done with in one go and you won't have to worry about going back and getting all worked up again. I know this idea might sound silly and a bit patronising, but it's not meant to be angel. As you know, our thoughts can be poweful things. It's funny because I knew someone who was petrified of having blood tests done but they had a lot of piercings and some tattoos but that didn't bother them!rolleyes.gif
    Make sure you have a little treat lined up for yourself afterwards. Well done for going though and for trying - you should feel really proud of that hunnie!action-smiley-033.gif
    Take care sweetie.
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    :hello: Everyone,

    gosh this thread is so quiet,I have been out today,missed the barbeque at the centre but all was not lost as I had lunch out instead of Scampi and chips at Asda at £4,mug of tea was £1 so spent £5 in total :)

    I got a nice doughnut for pudding as well which was lovely :) I am now back home to a new freeview box as my other one has crashed and needs to be sent back to them once Dad has put up the new box :)


    *hugs*

    love and light,
