    Two concerts coming up this week, because it's Easter and my choir are in demand for it. Can I fall over and die from lack of spoons now plz? *g*
    *Fetches bar chair from bedroom and props Trialia up on it*:D

    FP I'm not on FB, so if you could put a wee piccy of your jewellery here, that's be grand.;)

    Juno sorry you've hurt yourself, but well done on the bike theory test.:T

    Erme Someone once told me (when I was trying to help an acquaintance) that some people just want to stay broken. Perhaps this is the case for the chap? Sorry to hear about your ankle, btw.

    Had my DLA letter that confirms the increase : phew : now to get the bus pass sorted out, not that it's been used overly much, but it's a nice to have 'just in case'.

    Reading about temperature regulation above, I tend to be overly warm in bed - perhaps that's why I attract the cats, or at least the heavy ones .... But if I'm not careful when out & about my fingers and hands (and toes) go ivory white and numb before coming back to life in a blaze of painful reds/purples and blues - at least the last attack was in front of the GP and she was worried in case I was having a heart attack!, even in summer I have to be careful when I pass a refrigerated unit in the supermarket !

    Anyway, had a look around and found out some things on the PIP to be introduced sometime no doubt.

    Must say the Cafe remains lively; so, as I've done in the past, I'll leave some chocolate cake, fruited scones and trifle on the side for you to 'dip' into ...

    Slainte !

    ...Your doctor mistook a Raynaud's reaction for a heart attack, altocumulus? That's pretty alarming all by itself. That she mistook it that badly, I mean. I'm not a doctor and even I know what that means. =/

    Mmm, yummy food.

  • Trialia, when I go from a cold atmosphere to a warm one, I get almost like a lace pattern of the capilliaries expanding just underneath my skin. This is apparently due to heart issues and they think it is linked in with the Reynaulds somehow. But I agree with your sentiment, unless doc could see some other clinical signs.

    I have decided to make a bit more of my life, decision partly made as I'm a little unsettled where I am living. Decided to tackle some interests and get out and interact with the world more. First step is to try something I have always fancied - Scuba Diving. Can't think it would do me any damage, although the chances of me being able to lift the cylinder on my back out of the water are slim to nil! Shall have to get the Rheumi to sign off on it first though.
    I must go, I have lives to ruin and hearts to break :D

    I wonder if this temperature thing answers why a) I sleep with my legs stuck outside the duvet b) the windows are open all year round c) the boyfriend can't cuddle me at night because he gets too hot within seconds of being near me and d) the cat won't leave me alone in winter?

    Im the same and my husband accuses me of not loving him when I wont let him cuddle me but its dificult anyway because I can only sleep flat on my back.

    My left leg is always outside no matter how cold it is, we dont have cats so I cant say I attrack them.

    I'll up the offer to a tenner if you can throw in a new neck, shoulder, elbow, both wrists, left hip, both knees and a tight ankle.....

    Heya everyone.:wave:

    Had the psychiatrist this morning and my meds have been increased. I have one more appointment with him before he retires at the end of May. Shame really. I like him. I find it funny that both him and my CPN are very softly spoken though - like your stereotypical mental health professional :rotfl:.
    OH and I went for a walk near the beach. Lovely day here but I'm laying in bed cold and exhausted. :(
    OH has promised that on one of my next good days he's going to take me at @Bristol. :) It's somewhere I've been wanting to go for ages. :)
