I'm currently looking at a small pile of stuff on the sofa. It's been there for a few days. Why don't I just tidy it up? It would take 5 minutes.

I'm going to phone the surgery tomorrow to see if I can get an appointment ,though I don't know what they can do about it a it's been going on for ages and they haven't been able to sort it so far 😟Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,1201

Sorry to hear that, @OBL. It must be so difficult having a chronic pain condition. Hope you manage to get an appointment.

Don't know what your thoughts are on all things holistic & complimentary, but when I suffered a condition that was causing me some grief and GP couldn't do anything much to help.....apart from suggest pain killers, which were useless, I tried massage, Reiki and at one point, hypnotherapy. Can definitely vouch for them all, if you can find some good therapists in your area.Making the debt go down and savings go up

I'm currently looking at a small pile of stuff on the sofa. It's been there for a few days. Why don't I just tidy it up? It would take 5 minutes.I finally did it today.In fact I've a mega housework day so everything is looking much better. It's just a shame it doesn't last long. If only things stayed clean and tidy for a few months it would be great, but in no time at all everything needs doing again.
Re your leg, does your GP have one of those systems where you have to ring up at 8.00 and hope you can get through before all the appointments have gone and if they have you have to try day after day until you get lucky? If that is the case is there an urgent care centre near you that you could go to (not an A&E)? We have one near us and they have GPs there that you can go and see and you don't have to be registered - it's just a walk-in. Alternatively, are you in Benenden? If so, you can speak to a GP through them.1 -
