    Bah indeed, hope you are not tooo sore.  Is the falling because you are not getting physio etc at the mo or is it cos of heavy housework or something else [if that's not too nosy] x
    Probably a bit of both but certainly no physio & no accapuncture is not helping as I knew it wouldent.
    Anyway, enough of me, how are you?

    Hello Beanie,  I have finally made it back, haven't read back on the posts, ( yet!) but have seen no physio and acupuncture - totally with you on how crap that is, as I am not getting to massage/oesto either.... sending gentle love and hugs 
    As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
    What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
    Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
    Fake it, to you Make It
