Good Morning Early Birds - Sorry For Absence X
19 Answers
Thanku so much calda49 for your post asking if I was ok, and everyone who commented - so much appreciated.
After I last posted I started to get a splitting headache, followed very rapidly by vomiting on and off for well over 24 hours. Didn't leave bedroom/ sick bowl till late lastnight (apart from bathroom). Nailedit managed to get hold of me v late lastnight when I was just starting to feel slightly human, and let me know you'd be asking how I was.
Well I still have slight headache but am much better and hopefully seen the last of that! Hope I didn't miss anything too exciting!??

Thank you so much everyone - really appreciated x
ubassea - I used to have bad migraines years ago but then they just stopped, then when these dreadful headaches started a few months ago, lasting 3 days at a time, my doctors diagnosed temporal artritis(easier to a google than me explain) but admitted that they don't generally come with vomiting, so bit baffled really. Sounds dramatic but personally I can't think of anything much worse to have(/that isn't a serious illness) than a severe headache - you cannot detach yourself from it, it affects every single movement, even moving your eyes.
Tests results - nope! I have had a row with my doctors surgery saying I find it impossible to believe that they do not have scan results frommover 2 weeks ago when on the day I had the scan I was told the results would be on the hospital system available for doctor/to look at. So that's todays battle round 4.....
I actually have practically all of the symptoms, which is why he put me on such high doses of steriods. Trouble is I would never have believed that they really did cause weight gain until he put me on them. To say I was shocked is an understatement. : (
Double vision sounds v frustrating/ unpleasant.
Glad to hear you are feeling a tad better Smow.
Nice bright morning here in East Yorkshire, nothing much on the cards for me other than a visit to a local wool shop a couple of villages away.
I had that condition at the beginning of the year, and was on steroids for ages too. The only thing that stopped me putting on so much weight was that the condition actually almost locked my jaw shut, hence on was only able to take liquids or real sloppy food.
Anyway, hope the healing continues for you.
Have a good day folks.
Glad you are feeling better. Y
ou are missed!!! As you were saying about the lack of people taking part. I will try to post every day, (not always early as I sometimes have a lie in!). Had a terrible day yesterday which ended up with me having to visit the bank in the pouring rain and having to have a new crecit card as someone had tried to use mine on line. Of course when I get the new one I am going to have to sit and change various accounts on line, which will be a pain in the _ _ _ _. Anyway glad to have you back and don't work too hard, the housework will still be there tomorrow!
Good to see you posting again, Smow, and hope you are soon back to feeling 100% or thereabouts. Re test results, think this is the fault of secretarial admin .. I had a scan reported on same day and report sent to Consultant - however, the typed report hadn't been received for over five weeks to GP and myself. Part-time secretaries in a typing pool could be the cause.
