    I have had many problems with pain and I was referred to a pain management specialist who is absolutely fantastic.

    She has reviewed my medications, reassured me I am not completely mad and deluded as well as offering me a place on a "living well with pain" ten week course.

    Unfortunately I had to stop the course after two weeks as my mum was very poorly but I am due to start again in the summer. It is based on mindfulness and even the two sessions have made a bit of a difference. It's run by occupational therapists and physios. It was also great to talk to people in a similar situation who understand how isolating pain can be.

    PM if you would like any more info

    Thanks for this.....
    I feel sometimes that people don't have any idea about the pain I am in as there are no outside visible signs.....
    You have made me feel better about asking the doc to refer me.

    reading back and having a giggle here thanks for all the funny posts and to qoc for her bus exploits x

    one of my own, my son is doing work on green issues and recycling at school and in a test he was asked to list some of the cleverest ways to recycle, he put " Mums friends have taught her to recycle money by continuously using the same payment to get more and more shopping, then she recycles the shopping as gifts":rotfl::rotfl:

    not sure what the teacher is going to think:D

    R.bach, you are obviously doing your bit to train the next male generation correctly! :T:T:T
  • I am sad that that the m&s glitch had to end :(

    ooh, me too :( though i am stocked up. reckon it will take me at least 6 weeks to run the extra freezer down..... just in time for free pizza's in March :rotfl::T

    One thing i've been doing recently is a weekly meal planner. It's a brilliant way on knowing what I'm doing, what meat to take out, not wasting any fruit or veg etc AND spending very little money. Takes two mins to do once a week and makes you want to cook things a bit more adventurous instead of sticking to the same things.

    Remember someone posted on the last thread about signing up to lotto 24 and getting a free oral B 'leccy toothbrush. well don't do it.
    I signed up, paid £1 then it emailed and said they needed ID (copies of my passport/driving license etc and some other things). Obviously that wasn't happening. So i emailed them and cancelled straight away. I did ask for my £1 back, as per "long distance selling rules" and changing my mind (I was guessing on terminology:p). They said no, as i could have played games/bingo etc straight away after joining. Boooooooooto lotto 24. :( Avoid like the plague
    oh no :( glad i didn't do this when i noticed their pages didn't have the security padlock on them

    Thanks for all the thanks about the pizza draw. I'm sure someone else would have brought it over. Its every week for next month I think so more opportunities there.
    But I am feeling really chuffed :j that I helped feed loads of families for tea one night. After all the help I receive and received. I know for some its fun but for others will be a real treat,
    Keep up the good work Elite what a team

    Everyone who won should agree to have the pizza on the same day - call it Bananababe Day or Banana Pizza Night or Yes We Have Some Bananas, or something:)

    Over to you, Bananababe - you can name the day ... fingers crossed it's your birthday soon, that would be the perfect day :D
