Yes INOD you are right - Happy Birthday :) for a week or so ago.

Ok so what has been happening?

1. Boiler fitted but leaked. Guy sent another guy to fix it but hasn't validated the warranty so am a bit !!!!!! off.
2. Work is awful (!)
3. I got really sick at the start of March. Called 111 and they sent an ambulance. In A and E for 12 hours and then they diagnosed pancreatitis and gall stones and admitted me. Of course there was very limited communication with me - in huge amounts of pain, couldn't sit still, it was AWFUL. Doctors were a blur. Was in hospital for 4 days until my liver sorted itself out but it didn't quite. Am on a list to have my gallbladder removed. Doctors didn't really listen to me regarding questions, pain, digestive upset. Sadly Google AI has been more helpful, Signed off but went back for pre op and blood test every two or three days for liver. Waiting list is 32 weeks. No contact from anyone tho will ring 111 again regarding
4. Went back to work as couldn't get a GP appointment to extend fit note, was basically ill and exhausted for a week and a half.
5. Been off for week on holiday. Felt better but then ate too much - low fat but normal servings and haven't been well. Essentially, the no fat/low fat is okish. I like tuna and white fish and chicken. But I can't eat 3 meals a day, I need to either eat 5 or 6 snacks (impossible at work) or manage on a snack, small lunch, small dinner and lots of peppermint tea. I have lost weight but absolutely resent thinking about food so much.
6. In the midst of this my sister had another financial crisis so I have no spare cash. Plus I needed to get a cab to the hospital which was 20 quid a go so money is extremely tight.

Forgot to say had to get loan for the boiler 3000, which is ok and the rest of the money came back so the big CC is paid off. The small CC has a running total of 277.

I must say in the face of being really ill paying it off was all a bit anti climatic but at least it is done.

So sorry to hear that you’ve been so ill,Buffy.And that you’ve had your sister’s problem on top.

Wishing you better

Oh Buffy. That sounds dire. So sorry that you now have to wait 32 or was it 36 weeks for the operation. Take care of yourself xx❤️‍🩹

So sorry to hear about all this ☹️ My DD had an aneurysm between her pancreas and stomach lining and was bleeding internally. They also found she needed her gallbladder taking out. Long story short she’s fine now, had the aneurysm repaired and her gallbladder out. I hope you’re not waiting long for an op 🤞
