    hi moonbabe :) hope all is ok with you!

    yeah, i will go back in a few days i think and try to talk to them about doing soemthing further. just always get the feeling they think i am wasting their valuable time. grr.


    OK, this is why you need o be calm but firm. I think you should be very clear as to how its impacting on your life -had to give up the run, making it impossible to eat normally and sitting at next of work bent over and nearly in tears, necessitating a colleague to drive you- if you try to carry on but keep going intermittently they will think it is less impactful than it is.

    PF why don't you write a list of things you want to say?
    I did that at one of my first appointments as my short term memory is a bit poo sometimes and I can forget everything I want to say. This way you can get everything you wanted to say in and make sure they hear it all.

    Still not dressed, oops. I am pottering about and cleaning up though.

    Hi moonbabe! I was wondering where you'd gone. And Min as well, she hasn't been around for ages :(

    Char, I completely agree with what lost has said. Don't let them fob you off, this amount of pain isn't normal.

    tsabo, hope your dog is ok.

    Oh PF. I hope you are able to get it sorted this week. Do you keep a diary of when you have symptoms and what impact it had? If you start doing that (or retrospectively do it through this thread?) take it to the doctors they will see how bad it is.

    Outfit:
    Grey denim dress with pockets and grey pearly buttons - £5 Primark
    Long sleeve cream top with shoulder padding and ruched sleeves - £5 Tesco
    Lime green cropped cardi - £3 Sainsburys
    Opaque grey tights - £2 Primark
    Topshop Pumps with black, blue and lime green floral print - 20p Boot Sale
    Rabbit bracelet that I made and a few others too for good measure.

    Eyemake up today is various blues a bit OTT for a stay at home day but I was feeling bold!

    Right...come on, who swapped me with a fearfully efficient and indefatigable person today?

    I have done SO MUCH today I feel quite excited, almost excited enough to start in on tomorrows list....

    I have been to the shops, vacuumed one of the cars (I think dh should do his own car, but tht because there is more junk in it!) walked the dogs, cleaned the kitchen, had three dish washer loads (dog things go in separately from human things, and I have been baking....) have a batch of brownies coming out of the oven in a couple of minutes....I still have to hoover down stairs and see the horses again, but I can't really do that till this after noon..
