    I'm back, I live to fight another day.

    They didn't do it, :). It was all a bit frustrating actually.

    I've been at the doctors as well today. They gave me an ECG. As soon as it was finished the nurse said "errrrr book another appointment to see the doctor" and almost ran out of the room taking the print out with her and leaving me to rip off the 10 or so sticky tabs she had attached to me. I am not sure whether I am dying or she was just very busy today.

    Try and stay calm chewy.

    I had to type in a hurry before. But now can say that the eye situation is looking a bit better (hurrah!) and a lot of the swelling has gone down. I get to add a new pill to the rattle, which has quite a high risk of depression. Apparently if its a risk we'll know quite quickly. :). I start it to night And have to check in with the surgery at the end of the week to let them know I haven't topped myself. :eek:

    I'm thinking you are too metrosexual to have an interesting patern of shaved patches....I suspect if you were dying they would have sent you to A&E rather than booking you another appointment.

    i didn't get a free chest wax unfortunately. when i ended up in hospital they carefully removed some patches of bodyhair with what felt like a rusty, blunt bic razor (whilst going over a speed bump in an ambulance). didn't even get that this time, she just stuck the pads on. the NHS isn't what it used to be.

    Maybe get a preemptive wax from your oh next time? It can be good fun if a bit tender. :)

    Glad things are improving and lets hope the new pills are not as sideffectful as threatened as your conversation can actually be quite enchanting at times so we would miss you - if they are would they then give you more pills to boost your mood....

    not my idea of fun! i'm sure she'd like it, but her opportunities to tear hair from my body are strictly limited to the few stray hairs that grow on my back, thanks very much. besides, excess hair is in. i'm cultivating a beard at the moment.

    No, if I get depressed I have to stop taking them immediately. If I get vision disturbance I call the gp. (I did ask how I'd know if it were the pills or my swollen optic nerve and they looks a bit embarrassed and didn't know) :D. I'm actually quite hopeful. Not everyone gets the side effects other wise they wouldn't license the drug. :)

    Like body hair,(still enjoy the occasional waxing, and it can be reciprocal....not suggesting she has a hairy chest) not keen on beards though. Why are they popular now?
