    You got the outcome you wanted Fuddle without showing them your bare bum. Sounds like a resUlt to me, well done.

    Well after last weeks childcare duties not being as onerous as expected, this week I have dgd today and tomorrow and possibly Thursday and Friday. On Wednesday I'm with DD1.
    Chin up, Titus out.

    Brilliant Fuds!! Well done you for facing all of the dragons!
    NM- Not allowed to use the salty words that someone else had got your bungalow - can you be second on the list just in case?
    Hester - no good deed goes unpunished ;)

    My cold has turned out not to be so bad. I am recovering already.

    I have just had a phone call about the bungalow we wanted. Someone else has got it. Start again then.

    softstuff Delighted you are back. You have been really missed. I had just given up on you ever getting back. I had decided that working full time and doing up your house was too much, you had no time.

    So sorry you missed out again NM

    Welcome back softstuff
    I wanna be in the room where it happens

    Yaaay go fuddle!! :T:j:T You channelled yer inner miner! :D:D
    This is copied from an American site, about the hellish stuff I had in that infusion:
    ~"Reclast may cause severe bone, muscle, or joint pain. These symptoms can begin within days of starting your treatment, or they may not show up for some time. Call your doctor right away if you experience severe pain while taking Reclast."~
    Well I've had severe bone & tendon pain for a week and I can't walk. Phoned my gp who hummed and hawed then told me to take Paracetamol! I have a year's worth of this stuff in my bones and I'm seriously not happy. Just posting this to explain why I'm so whiney and moany just now lol.
    Industrial quantities of JBs needed I think!!!!

    Hello all
    Just popping in to say, in no particular order.....
    Yay Fuddle :j. I'm glad TPTB saw sense ;).
    Mardartha I'm sorry that you are in such pain, I hope you can get some relief soon. In the meantime there's a crate or two of JB's winging it's way up to Scotlandshire via t'internet.
    NurseMaggie Bu88er :mad:. I had everything crossed for you.
    Vjsmum hope the cold makes a swift exit.
    Karcher I hope that you are ok now, health wise and work wise. Thinking of you.
    I'm making the most of the calm before the storm, as DGD is due teatime for a sleepover :rotfl:. Seriously she's lovely on her own, a bit bossy but that's 'cos she's a girl ( and bl00dy minded :D ).
    Hugs to anyone who needs one and get well wishes to all the poorlies.
    nan xx
    Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, but this time more intelligently

    brilliantfuddle so pleased for your DD.

    mar, I was tempted to send you some codeine then I remembered it does not work on that pain nothing does. I have been having that pain for years. Sorry to have to tell you no pain killer works.

    If you can cool it that may help. When I get it in the night I stick my whole legs out of the bed. walking about can help too. It's difficult to get going but even walking around one room helps it to go. Then you can have the jellybabies nanny window sent.

    I can't walk NM, it's like the tendon at back of my heel has seized. I've found a HWB does help a bit. but as you say, it's trial and error. I'm pondering a JB poultice.....
