Every time I open a newspaper or magazine a headline tries to tell me how to lose a stone
so that I can be beach-body ready, for summer...…
the only way I'm going to lose a stone in time for summer is to sever a limb....or two :cool:

Hi All,
Yesterday I had an MRI done at a hospital in Portland. (The only other one I ever had done was at a hospital in Salem- it was a little scary but I am not claustrophobic so I made it through okay with a little anti-nausea medicine for the drinking of the "yukky stuff" ahead of time.)
Yesterday's experience was a completely different thing- it was actually a pleasant experience! A very kind tech brought me the stuff to drink, which is a new kind called "Breeza". Still lemon-lime and thick, but not as bad as the old kind. Had to drink three 16.9 oz bottles in one hour, not a half gallon. (I did take an anti-nausea pill). During the test itself, they put ear plugs in my ears, and on top of that a set of headphones. They said I could pick any music I wanted- anything! So I requested Beethoven's Fifth Piano Concerto, knowing it would last about as long as the MRI (almost and hour). What a difference that made! It was so comforting that I actually got lost in the music several times!
They also had replaced a dozen or so ceiling tiles with a beautiful scene of flowers by a river, all back lit and bright. When I felt restless, I would open my eyes and if I looked way up out of the tube, I could see the scene. The nurses there were so nice! I heard two of them discussing ways they might install videos, especially for children that need to get an MRI. Everyone was so caring- it really made me feel great! I made sure to fill out a complimentary form on the care I received before leaving.
May you all have nurses and techs that truly care- they are awesome!!!
Hugs to all!:ghug:
 
It's good to hear positive reports of tests NGs.and I hope the outcome is just as positive for you..

Well you all know I'm not one to whinge, but today I will make an exception.

IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY YESTERDAY AND IT WAS THERE FOR ALL TO SEE IN THE QUICK LINKS SECTION, AND NOT ONE CONGRATULATION DID I GET !!! Please don't worry though.I'm resilient and will get over the huge disappointment and upset very soon.Maybe by Christmas.:tear:
 
Carol so sorry. Wishing you a good birthday week. I always like celebrating the entire week as I’m glad I made it through another year. [emoji512][emoji512][emoji512][emoji259][emoji254][emoji272]. Just keep on celebrating Carol and enjoy the week. [emoji254][emoji272][emoji254]

I use Tapatalk to access the forum from my phone it doesn’t have the same levels of access to the forum as it does if I’m using the computer. I have basic functions like replying to recent notifications. I do not see any quick links on people via Tapatalk.
 
I don't know how to see your birthday on quick links,but Happy Belated Birthday, Carol! Kirsty is right- celebrate being alive and having made it through another year! :rosette1:
 
Many more Happy Birthdays Carol.....i dont know about quicklinks otherwise i would have sent greetings sooner.
As Kirsty says make it a week to remember....
If i lived closer i would bring you a big Birthday 🎁 Cake....and a decanter of best French Champagne.....
Nutty thanks for the positive feedback...sounds like you had a bearable experience in a challenging environment....
Winning...
 
Happy Birthday Carol. We share May birthdays and I didn’t receive any wishes either but to be fair I removed my birth date because it’s not always a celebratory date as I get older. 😂😂
 
I know you all know I was kidding, but thankyou all for your kind replies.Shanen,I'm sure I posted on your birthday.I always congratulate all my crohnies when possible.

I'm really proud of myself today.There's a huge book sale at the local community centre this weekend,and so far I've resisted the temptation.It was actually my old school and is only a ten minute walk,but I've lost count of the number of books I have waiting,so I'm staying put.Of course there's always tomorrow.....Happy weekend all x

I've just found my birthday post to you on the 8th.It's still in my subscriptions.Sorry you missed it....:medal1:
 
I'm dithering about dodging day-trippers today.It's not easy living where we do,especially in summer.I think they should earn points for every time they show up during the cold,wet,windy,foggy months and earn a day out in summer.Picking up a bag of litter along the coast would also earn a day out.I will e mail the local council tomorrow but I won't hold my breath waiting for a reply.....happy Sunday all.
 
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine....I’ll taste your strawberries and drink your sweet wine......such a lovely sunny spring day.
Mixed blessings with the tourist season....sadly some are not environmentally friendly.
Carol...i would love to come to some of the book sales to which you have access .I did see a booksale in Walmart yesterday but such rubbish...not worh a second look.
Feeling so much better today...well one day at a time...but i think the acupuncture is having a cumulative effect...remains to be seen...will issue a bulletin in a weeks time..
Be marvellous as a permanent cure...but then pigs might fly...
Happy Sunday to Everyone.....
Winning.."...........
 
We ended up going for a walk through the park,but boy,was I tired.We sat in our "secret" place and listened to the birds for a while,then we walked up to the book sale.You would have loved it Trysha.Everything you could want and they had some real oldies on display.One was printed in the 1600s !!!
But because of the sheer volume and variety of books,it was very overwhelming.I maybe should have went the last three days.I bought two @ 50p each and hubby bought one.Like I said I was really tired.,but I did perk up
at the sale.
 
Bye eck Carol your house must be like central library :)
Mind u i cant talk iv far to many books. I dont even get chance read these days. Oh well maybe one days il turn some pages again.

Hope to find everyone well. Xxx
 
Wow...Chris..that was a lovely surprise...hope you bought a lottery ticket while you are on a winning streak...
Good to see you Mandy...
Carol ...you make me so envious...sounds like a really good book sale and i would love to peruse and maybe buy the ancient ones...and such give away prices....50p....unimaginable.
I can only dream...but should i be lucky enough might find a sale when i am visiting family
this year.....unfortunately they dont share my love of books.
My dad used to say....you'll ruin your eyesight with all that reading...then i was sent to play in the garden....no fun there with the incey wincey 🕷 spiders and 🐜 ants sometimes wasps....if we got lucky......
Had to wear glasses since ten years old...i cant think that was because of reading....hmph
Think we are into the fine weather....still neeid a light coat but lovely walking weather..
Cheers!
Winning.....
 
Congratulations on the win, Chris! We can visualize you sitting outside in your thermals enjoying the new chairs! Cheers!:drink:
 
And....when i grow too old to dream..I’ll have you to remember...
When i grow too old to dream your love will live in my heart....
Age is mind over matter......if you don’t mind ...it does not matter.
Its a lovely day today.....lots of sunshine now changed to evening clouds..
Winning......
 
Things are going well. The yard is looking nice and we're about to plant the rest of the veggie garden. The sky was very cloudy and still is. I hope everyone can enjoy a nice sunny day. Still waiting for the lightning they promised. No more fires please.
 
Really missing my garden...
Used to grow all the veggies 🌶🌽 ...no sprays....i made a successful insect repellent with fluid from boiled rhubarb leaves which contains high levels of oxalic acid....very effective.
Being poisonous to man and animals we kept the dog away from the garden for a few days
When spraying.....which we did not need to do very often.
Also did some companion planting...roses love garlic...
We took her for long walks along the escarpment which she loved..never tired of it.
How I miss her.....and her singing with my classical music....i ended up listening to her
vocal renditions with high notes.She was a miniature french poodle...pure black....pure
breed that we adopted from the animal shelter....seventeen years old when she passed.
We were told she was one to three years old when we adopted her.
It seems that spring has arrived still 😎 cool but sunny ☀️ and a few clouds...
Such is life....
Winning......
 
Hoping to finish planting our garden over the next week. All the herbs are in- parsley, cilantro, oregano, and rosemary. The spinach and lettuce are almost ready. The blueberry bushes are flowering, and we managed to get a few strawberries before the birds ate them. I still want to plant red beets, green beans, a couple squashes and tomatoes, potatoes and carrots. C'mon over in July, Trysha, and we will load you up with some fresh veggies! No sprays! Mostly cloudy here- hoping for sun soon.
Family coming in for the weekend from out of town- sure hope my gut doesn't act up during their visits, as we only have one bathroom!
Hugs to you all...:strawberry:
 
Hubby had me awake during the night due to snoring and nightmares.The snoring is curable-ish with a spray from the chemist,which needs replacing,but the nightmares are something else.Howls like a banshee,kicking me,wrestling me etc.It's quite scarey.He has done it occasionally all our married life.He says he would never hurt me,and he wouldn't of course,but as he doesn't remember,how does he know? It's a good job I'm tough.I'm a light sleeper so I'm usually aware of what's happening and can hold him back.Threw him out of bed at 3am and slept well for a few hours.Of to town for some snoring spray and some strong rope and a gag.....hahaha
 
I’ve got a busy week at work. Got my ANA results. Tested positive ab. 1:1260 titre homogeneous pattern. Being referred to rheumatologist. So docs are thinking lupus, drug induced lupus or autoimmune hepatitis. While waiting for number 40 to be confirmed I may have 41 on the way already. I really think my DNA and genetics are screwed up. Still planning cake when they become official [emoji512]
 
Blimey Kirsty...you are a walking miricle girl 🦄. If i was you i'd make it a bloody big cake 🎂. I dont know how you manage all these things going on. 🏅💝

Hope to find you all having a good day . 💕💕 xoxo
 
Kirsty..thats a heavy load to carry...
Yet you still manage to work...hope things will turn out better for you...
Mandy...how are you......did you get the meds ok?
I found the system pretty poor when i was there trying to get my sisters prescriptions....they run out of essentials and have to get stuff from other chemists..
Where on earth does all the tax money go...? I know the young ones in my family say they would do better with the deductions from their salaries....
Many things in the UK are much more expensive than here....
Carol...would you like some bear spray......very potent and effective to keep bears at bay..
Chris...you have been very industrious
Nutty....love the sound and variety in your garden...
Its a long way to come over....about 3000miles....bit of a hike...tho the veg would be worth it..
Winning......
 
Trysha yes i got them about five days after the script went it. Hope they help calm the mini flare. Oh well break over back to work for me hi ho hi ho 🙂
 
Thats scandalous Mandy so you miss five days treatment when its badly needed...
My prescription time is Fifteen minutes........
Lovely sunshine cool winds today.....summer or spring? Is just round the corner
Hope your nights have improved Carol...
Winning......
 
Tell me about it Trysha... apparently the chemist doesnt carry stock of it,so had to ring or whatever the place they get meds from to order it. They also said they had to send a copy of my script to prove a person had been prescribed it, then wait for the drug company to send it to them at the chemist 🤔....well there you go eh!!!

Yep missed nearly a week of getting vital medication..the nhs is going to hell in a handcart these days. If i remember rightly our Carol had a similar issue not long back.

Oh well onwards n upwards it is what it is n not much i can do to change it.

Love n hugs. 💝💕
 
You all make me realize how lucky I am to get my meds so quickly! When the doctor prescribes something for me, she puts the order into the pharmacy near my home while I am still in her office. By the time I drive home, the prescription is usually ready for me to pick up! I guess I have taken that for granted, and I am so sorry to hear you have to wait so long, Mandy! Hope you are feeling better soon!:kiss:
 
So true Nutty.....if i phone in my prescription it is ready when i get there...takes me about fifteen minutes from home.
Taking it into the drugstore .
then i wait up to fifteen minutes depends how busy they are.
It is less than acceptable for sick people to wait five days for a much needed prescription..plus some of these drugs take a few days to become established in body systems.
Hope you will soon feel better Mandy.
People in the UK are being short changed in many ways...the system is no longer there
for them.
It is not a free system either....the enormous taxation from income tax to sales tax is
the payment.
Needs to be big protests about the lack of service .
Unfortunately the government is no longer cohesive...too much in fighting and posturing to be the next PM.
The men do not support the female politicians and i feel very much for Hon. Mrs. May.
I have experienced bias in the university workspace here and it still exists.
Politicians are supposed to be the voice of the people.........lets see how well they do now.
So we have Saturday rain again here....but how lush,verdant green are all the lawns
in my surrounding area plus beautiful 🌺 💐 flowers.Soothes the soul..
Winning.....
 
Rumour has it that all 'scripts will be electronic by September.I send my repeats to my doc. by email and collect personally but I have the option of appointing a pharmacy to which my script will be sent by my medical centre.The pharmacy will then txt or email me when it's ready for collection.That's all well and good,but there are still many,mainly older folk who are not technically wise,my hubby being one of them.Also this year,all parking along our part of the coast,must be paid by app.and card.As neither of us has a smart phone,nor want one,we can no longer visit the coastal area by car.Only bus or bike.It means those of us who have lived here all of our lives,paying taxes etc.are required to buy a phone which we neither want or need so we can visit places we call our home patch.....I don't think so.
 
Good morning all.Grey and drizzly Bank holiday Monday.Going for a stroll down to the river soon,then a lazy afternoon with books and TV.
Yesterday at the Sunday market,I bought three local history books.Just about 30 pages each.So no doubt I'll be sharing some stuff with you soon.Bet you can't wait eh.?
 
Carol...have you spoken to your MP about the requirement for a cell phone...it is disgraceful
that seniors are not taken into consideration when pivotal decisions are made.....how disrespectful can they get.
I have not seen any posts from you yet regarding the three history books you purchased...
Thought by now you would have looked...read...learned ..and inwardly digested them
ready to divulge the contents.
My sister is deteriorating and it will be sooner than later I will be in England.
First i have to get the scopes out of the way....
I did think of a reschedule but have too many symptoms to let it wait and besides i dont want to spend the flight..7-8hours.....inside the little room on the aircraft....and arrive half lifeless....limp as a blimp!,
Life gets a bit depressing at times.....but have to square shoulders...chin up...cheerio..carry on.
Our sunny day has metamorphosed into rain and is going to present itself tomorrow with
More...
Winning......
 
I'm sorry, Trysha. xx I've lately been on very strong cannabis extracts to stop my cluster headaches and haven't been around as much. The good news is I think things are improving for me... (touch wood). You always have my support. Hello to everyone, may things improve for all of us.
 
Trysha sorry to hear your sister is getting worse . I hope you can get to feel better soon and the scopes dont reveal anything to bad. Love n hugs 💝💕

Chris hope you are getting on track and things improve quickly.
Love n hugs 💕💝

Love to all. Keep as well as you can :ghug:
 
It's so sad that you have to come to visit due to your sisters ill health.It would be nice for you to have a trip to enjoy,but life throws all sorts of obstacles in our path,your own health worries being priority.Sending kind thoughts your way.
I do have a cell phone Trysha,but I refuse to pay hundreds of pounds for a one with bells and whistles just because the council gives parking business to private firms who can do as they please.I will be having a word with our local MP very soon.Hopefully he's not a partner in the parking business.
 
THE OLD NEWCASTLE CATTLE MARKET....

The public convenience here was a strange arrangement.One farmer suffered the indignity
of having his shirt tail pulled under the partition by a lady and used as toilet roll..

I must add that the above occurred in the 19th century.Us Geordies are almost in line with the modern world nowadays....almost ...
 
Hi Everyone,
Well, I made it through a five day visit by my stepson and daughter-in-law with another dozen or so relatives stopping in Saturday and Sunday over our Memorial Holiday weekend. It was lovely to see everyone, and to see cousins that haven't seen each other in a long time connecting again. However, I am exhausted! Didn't have any major gut trouble until today. Next Remicade infusion is next week, so I hope I can last until then! Best wishes to all of you!
 
Be sure and take some, "me time" and be good to yourself, Nutty. You made it! :) Family gatherings can be hard to negotiate at best... Especially at your own house... ;)
 
Hi people. I've been a bit of a hermit lately online and IRL. Hope everyone is well. My Crohn's is still in remission, and I will probably get a scope in a few months. We've had a cold spring, a few days of 20C and then it gets cold again. They are predicting that the hot weather won't arrive until July. I haven't planted things like tomatoes yet because they won't like it. Lawn needs to be mowed though. I got a skunk under my shed again, and threw a few mothballs in there, it worked, he moved someplace else.
 
Hi all..
Had a day out at Chester zoo today with my son n grandson. Had a good day dispite the cold and some rain.
Hope you have all had a good day. 💕💝:ghug:
 
Oh,you lucky thing.I watch The Secret Life Of The Zoo regularly.It's based at Chester.I'd love to go, but we don't fancy the drive.
We went to Edinburgh Zoo 2 or 3 yrs. ago and were really disappointed.The only good bits were the chimps and penguins.And it was £2 for a sml.bottle of water and most of the cafes were closed.IN September.!!!
 
Could it be the secret road that leads to the enchanted 🌳 🌳 forest.....and where the Mad Hatter holds tea parties 🎉 🎈......
And on their way to the party.....some conversations overheard....
Will you walk a little faster said the whiting to the snail....theres a porpoise close behind me
And he's treading on my tail....
I would like to go to the zoo too Mandy..I see you had a lovely time
Nothing can replace the beautiful sunny day .we have....revives the lagging spirit...
Its 9am here...time to do the chores and then walk in the ☀️ 🌞 sunshine....
Winning...
 
If the roads are paved with gold and its a good place to be you might linger awhile over the rainbow Chris..
Such a damp day today but mingled with sprinkles of sunshine....wish summer would come to stay...
Winning.....
 
It's been mild here but damp.Not inclined to wander far today,maybe to the park to enjoy the bird song,if we can find a quiet spot.I feel blessed to have someone to share my life with and who enjoys the simple things in life.

Chris...don't forget the supplies and compass,just in case.We'd hate to lose you.
 
Aaarghhh... I just got back from the emergency department. I spent five hours with oxygen and the works. The cluster headaches have gotten so bad, I'm now on a course of pred. I guess we all love that stuff the same... not. At least my eyeball doesn't feel like its being stabbed anymore. I told the nurse she could cut my eye out if it would make the pain stop...and I meant it. My best to everyone.
 
:ghug:Ah,Chris that's not good news.Feel better soon my friend.The Secret Rd., will still be there when you're up to it.....maybe.
 
So sorry to hear of all the pain and discomfort Chris,,,,hope you will soon be better.
I can only guess at how you feel......the migraines i get can be quite bad but i have found acupuncture sends them away.
It works for me in so many different ways but is not covered by the health system....time it was so more people could benefit...beats all the drugs.
Wednesday is looming up...scope day....how i wish it was over....but after a bad night ..again...it might help to know what is happening.
Mandy and Carol...i see you have a Trump filled day today...lots of excitement for you all.
Peaceful sunny windy day here today
Winning....
 
Aw Chris my friend sorry you have been having a rough trot. Hope your soon better and causing trouble again🙂 . Take it easy 💕

Trysha, Trump can come here n welcome to do so as long as on the way home he dissappears in the bermuda triangle 🙏.

Hope all are doing ok 💝💕🤞
 
Thanks peeps. I'm holding my fingers crossed that there are no more headaches. This is my second dose of 60mg that I took this morning and I am to continue this dosage for four more days then try a taper. Something seems to be helping slightly, hopefully the doc got it right. That's pretty cool about the site being improved hey? Good to see some positives happening...;) Take good care everyone.

Cheers!
 
Hi Chris...good to see you feeling a little better.....hope it continues to improve..
Its reaally good to have David back and improving the site ...
Take care

I'm not going to talk about The Donald except to say it is costing our country £40,000,000 for the "pleasure ?" of his company,which we can ill afford.....BUT
I would like to say a huge thankyou to my neighbour for letting me borrow her large sheet of plastic covering...….TA PAULINE !!!

For those who don't know"Ta" is thankyou all over UK.
 
Trysha.best wishes for tomorrow.I expect you're thinking about starting the "PREP" soon.

I'd like to add one thing....it'll soon be Thursday and over.....
 
I think the visit of The Donald has greater implications for the UK than is apparent.
After all he was invited .
Not that i care for his bad manners and crude attitudes.
Thanks for the support Carol.
The GI did not want me to go through the rigours of the four litre purge and has ordered
two enemas..self administered as directed.
Last time with the four litres i ended up in ER for the day and night..what a performance that was and the GI still went through with the upper endoscopy and colonoscopy.
I have once before used the enemas and went through the procedures ok
I was out for the count each time so it must have been satisfactory.he always finds a polyp
the bad kind...better out than in.
So i am hoping for everything to be straightforward......
Not thrilled with enemas though.
Onward and upwards...
Winning....
 
Hi folks. I'm glad to see that a lot of the "regulars" are still around, but also sorry that ill health still abounds. I think of all of you often, tho obviously haven't been here for a lonnnggggggg time. I'm sorry some of you have to deal with The Donald also, but have to admit it was probably good not to have him in the USofA for a bit, ha ha. Oh, I'm so tired of him! Maybe your country can talk some sense into him, but I doubt it.
Doug and I are are doing pretty well, we still kayak and have our crazy cat Ninja and tripod dog Bentley. They are both a handful but very loved. Doug's crohn's seems to be in remission, tho we both went thru a nasty flu (in spite of flu shots) earlier this year. My heart and lung conditions, as well as neurologic conditions, all seem pretty stable thank goodness.
Well, with this hit and run greeting, I must be off as we are getting ready to go on an overnight trip to a fairly local reservoir to try out my new trolling motor Doug just installed on my new kayak (Doug has a fancy new pedal driven fishing kayak as well.) I hope all of you stay as well as can be. You're always and forever in my heart.
 
Hi everyone, peeping in to say hello. I missed reading a LOT of chat, but Chris I hope you feel better soon my friend. Sandy, good to see you. Hugs to Mandy, Carol and Trysha. And hello to everyone out there [emoji4]

Baby girl turns 6 months old soon and is absolutely keeping me on my toes. We are starting solids soon and I must say I'm very excited. Our breastfeeding journey has had quite a rough start but we made it to 6 months without formula. So I'm quite proud of us. It has been a huge learning curve [emoji177]

I'm going to make an effort to check in here every morning from now on. Hugs everyone [emoji173]
 
Well..I survived the ordeal yesterday and have to return in 3 weeks for further reviews.
It seems current problems with pain are due to the colon stricture being around 1mm diameter..lthe GI has widened
It now to 15mm.
The anesthetic was amazing ...i didnt know they had injected it..through th IV of course.
Here one minute..gone the next.
Woke up fast no bleary side effect.The GI explained his results but wants to explore the upper GI tract further.
The pain has gone and i feel better although very tired today.
Its a big relief .
Today i have to see the rheumatologist.....annual checkup.+..DEXA scan
Hope you are all having a good day
Winning.....

Madhu, so glad all is well with you and our darling little girl. Oh the fun is still to come🤯😀😀.

Love to all.
Btw. Iv had messages going to my spam box, with the warning that they could not be confirmed that they have come from David. Hope that they have and google have not found some subtefuge going on. !!!
 
Man, I just had my last big dose of Pred this morning. I sure am glad to begin the taper tomorrow... I'm starting to get pretty moody and the start of water retention with all the puffiness it entails. Hopefully no more troubles for awhile, wish me luck!
 
Good to see you Sandy...
Hi Everyone on this bright warm sunny day
Hope you soon feel better Chris..
Carol.. you were right,,,Thursday was much better than Wednesday

Thanks for that reminder Carol...I would hate to get behind with Christmas shopping....
Two more appointments before I will be winging my way to England.
My sister is slightly better which gives me some leeway with time.
Hope you are feeling better Chris as time goes by...
You too Mandy...
