    editted as just read above post
    Dragon cant think of anything really helpful to say apart from sending you strong positive vibes
    YOU MAY NOT HAVE MS OR CANCER please keep telling yourself that, and if they do find something nasty in those test results, the sooner they find things the better the chance they are treatable.

    HUGS for you things must be very scary at the moment





    had a phone call boiler mending person is running late, losing hope of a warm bath tonight. just hope its not going to be expensive to fix.

    took all the glasses cups and lunch/storage boxes out of two of the kitchen cupboards gave thm a wipe out and put contents back in tidier
    tea towels and cleaning cloths folded and put away

    I have literally only just turned the netbook on; been keeping really busy, as it's the only way I can cope. Three frogs have already been eaten, and another is on the menu for eating as soon as I've cleared today's email.

    Dragon (((HUGS))) mate; gods, it's frustrating, you've had a bunch of tests and they still can't tell you what's going on!:mad: Lots of Wolfy posi-vibes, my friend. I wish there was something more constructive I could do to help.

    I don't really have a RoD (referring to the Post #2 Challenge) - my challenge has been to keep sane while Mr LW is doing these mega-long shifts.:cool: Thankfully, Megan is helping with that. On a positive note, the frozen Shepherd Spies have been a great success.:T

    *breaks off typing to take phone call from Mr LW*
    He says it's back to normal work times tomorrow!:T:T:T:T:T

    The greenhouse has blown over in the high winds we've had; it's OK, it's just a metal frame with a plastic covering, so no glass involved; but I think this time it may officially be dead. In any case, it'll have to stay there til Mr LW can attend to it, as it's too heavy for me to deal with.

    Right, I'm going to do my email, then chomp another frog.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    I have been in this situation too and to some extent I still am. The only way I cope is by going by the old NHS adage "No news is good news". Also google is your enemy. Hugs x
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Not long home from work, but glad I got up early to put meat and veg in the slow cooker. Just made dumplings and DH due home about half six so HHC before he gets home.
    Work still pretty miserable and I am being made to feel like the bad guy even though all I have done is work :(. Still hoping my premium bonds come up trumps so I can tell them where to stick it. You can but dream. Hopefully I will have more to cross off my list later.

    I've been here a few years ago. All the tests came back negative but I went ahead with the operation anyway to be on the safe side and only then did they find cancer cells....so if anything it's better to have the tests than not :) Just think if you were in the US then you probably wouldn't have the tests regardless of whether you needed them or not because they'd cost too much *hugs* hope they get it sorted soon. Have you thought about trying supplements and vitamins or do you already do those?
