Also waiting for the tramadol to kick in. (No bike ride involved tho.) Had cortisone injection in foot/toe joint so it will be a three med appointment week. (Wow! This doc got me in in under 24 hours, and he is as respected as any of the other specialists in this area of expertise. And at a clinic closer than the one I normally go. Win win situation. So I'm winning.)
 
Oh peeps all these appointmemts to deal with...its a job in itself 😯
Tramadol is the only thing keeping me upright n moving at the mo. If i miss a dose i know about it..the aching shouts "hey feed me now!!". I feel achey all the time but without that im in agony..oh the joys of crohns 😞.
Well dragging my old clapped out frame to work,for another days physical punishment ☺
Love n hugs to all. Keep as well as you can..💕💕💕
 
It's cold and grey here today again.No cycling,but had a brisk walk into town and back.
Am now going to colour my hair,it's been almost 2mnths and the grey is winning the fight.
I'm not vain,but I don't feel old enough to have grey hair.Well,not today anyway.

Back later
 
I feel way old enough for grey hair Carol,but il be damned if il show it Haha,bring on the dye.
Hope you all are keeping well. 💕💕
 
Winging west tomorrow with mixed feelings
Hope the sun will shine today...so dull and overcast
Have a good day Everyone
Winning.......
 
I know mixed feelings very well Trysha.I'm assuming you're going home ?
There's nothing like being back to "normal" and your own bed though.
Safe journey.
 
I hope your arms don't get tired from all that flapping Trysha. (My poor attempt at a joke.) Have a safe and good flight home.
It has been about as usual around here. My sleep is still as backwards as ever, my toe is a lot better (at least for now) since my cortisone injection yesterday, and I have round three of med appointments tomorrow (well actually today now as its 5:00 am but I've been awake since a nap that ended at about 11:00 pm last night.) This time the cardiologist.
See you all around. Bee well.
 
Hi Trysh have a safe trip back. Hope you enjoyed old blighty 💕
Sandy im coming to sort you out girl. You need Mandying for sure lol ☺💕
Carol hope your ok and are not still falling of that blooming bike . Keep safe on it please young lady :hug:

Love n hugs to all 💕💕
 
A friend has just asked me if I would take in a rescue Chihuahua.5 year old,little girl.
I sadly declined.It was very hard, as we've had dogs for over 50yrs and I love them.But I don't think I can cope with the heart ache of losing another one.Of course if I'd been 10yrs younger,I might have considered it but I'm getting selfish now,but also sensible.

Enjoy you weekend everybody,
 
Aw shame Carol but i know what you mean. When i lost my last dog,i said no more. It is so hard when they go. Had my old doggy nearly 20yrs too.
Hope everyone is doing ok . Much loves to all 💕💕
 
The gloom is leaving this area, it must have blown over to you Shanen.
I'm still waiting for some Mandying, Mandy. I need a lot of sorting out. (Although thankfully not much new at the cardiologist yesterday.)
Sorry about the dog, Carol. Allie said to say "woof."
And hugs to all from me too.
 
Very wearily back at the ranch...arrived back a short while ago.
I know how you feel Carol...when I lost my dog I said...never again
I am sorely tempted at times but can't go through all the trauma again.
Winning......
 
Glad your back safe n sound Trysh..take the time to get your breath back hun.. the washing n stuff can wait ☺x
Sandy the Mandying is on its way hun.. im swimming like crazy but i think im either going round in circles or the land keeps moving 😕xx
 
Hi everyone. Just recovering from allergies. Been a while since I won.

Getting all set for trip to India. Leaving next Sunday and haven't packed anything yet :D

Hope everyone is well :)
 
Give yourself a day of recovery from travel Trysha before tackling any catch up. :ghug: to all.
 
Welcome home Trysha........
Home is the place where,no matter where you're sitting,you're looking at something you should be doing.

Winning
 
Wow Madhu only a week to go... i really hope you have a safe n wonderful trip.. go get packing girl lol 😃💕💕💕
:hug: to all n lots of love too..💚💛💜💖
 
It is so fun belonging to this group of international travelers, and just having so many friends from all over the world. Welcome home Trysha.
Madhu, may your trip be everything you want it to be.
Don't worry Mandy, we'll get together some time. I think that most of us swim in circles at least at times.
Happy Sunday everyone (though most of you are about done with it or about to be done. In that case have a great upcoming week.)
 
It is fun your right Sandy. I feel like i travel the world each day,from the comfort of my sofa..
It will be my sons birthday tomorrow (18th). 27yrs old.. where has the time gone!!!. Dont seem like 5yrs n here he is 27 n having his own child in june...
Time flies i guess huh !☺
Big hugs n love 💕💕
 
Thanks Mandy and Sandy! That rhymes, lol :)

Happy birthday to your son, Mandy! Your son and I are of the same age :D
 
Safe travels Madhu, enjoy your trip. Congratulations on your promotions to grandmother status Mandy, what joyous news! Hi Doug, Sandy, Carol (and Trev & Dave if you're lurking in the background).
 
Hi everyone..hope you have/had a good day.
Sending love n best wishes to you all while im winning for a while.☺💕💕
 
Hi all, THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
The Catacombs of Paris contain the bones of around six million ex-Parisians in the caverns and tunnels of the city's former stone mines.

Shove over Sandy! I'm in need of a win. :hug::rof:

Glori, Glori hallelujah! (I've always wanted to say that.) Finally, some competition. These losers (I can say that because I am winning) forgot how to fight. And I really needed a win myself.

Madhu, can I come with you? I need a vacation.
 
I hope I did not offend anyone with my post above. I just miss the banter of the old days, of which Glori (Naturelover) was good-naturedly part. And I'm fuzzy brained from the end of a horrible migraine. But getting better.
Carry on, y'all.
 
Hi Everyone
Thank you all for the good wishes
Safe and happy travelling Madhu
Jet lagged to the max right now....off to bed..again
Two specialist appointments this week...one down one to go....sigh...
Winning.....
 
I think Doug's packing Sandy's bag if the above thankyou's being taken seriously.hahaha

Sign outside a café: We don't have WiFi,talk to each other,pretend it's 1995.

Winning
 
I'm sure he is packing my bag. He needs a vacation too. (He ended up talking me to the ER for my migraine in the middle of the night the other night, it was really horrible, then I had a seizure the next day, first one in ages, which doesn't help his tummy that is giving him problems. )
I was freezing all night so 100° temps sound good right now. I used to get hot easily, way too easily, and now after years of that, I'm starting to go the other way. What's up with that?
 
aw Sandy,it's one thing after the other for you,isn't it ?
I've never had a migraine and rarely get headaches,so I haven't a clue what you're going through.I know it's pretty bad though.Just get through one day at a time,best you can,and try not to worry.Not easy with all you've to put up with I know.Big Hugs x
 
Sandy,Hope your feeling better x

Off for a run to the countryside.(in the car) Will stop off for a snack in a market town we often visit.My fave author has a new release and there's a good bookstore there.I could wait awhile until the supermarket gets it,it will be cheaper,especially if I wait for the paper back.But I love books and reading and buying one for me,is equal to the thrill others get from buying shoes etc.( I didn't mean to write all that,but you can tell how excited I am......I must get out more hahaha) Winning excitedly !!!
 
Feeling mostly better today, thanks! Even managed to cook a large hot breakfast, something I haven't done in ages.
P.S. I don't spend hardly any money on shoes, my "mad money" goes to craft supplies, and I must be mad, I hardly use them.
 
Hello Everyone....still very tired..
I bought two pairs of shoes while in England....perfect fit and comfortably stylish.
They use different lastes here and it's hard to get a good fit.
Saw the rheumatologist yesterday first time...he says I have osteoporosis....but not too bad yet.Rx magnesium , vitamin D2 and calcium.No physical evaluation surprisingly...just lab work.
Same with the neurologist...no physical evaluation...just take magnesium for migraines....ordered stacks of lab work.
I don't know how they reach conclusions without physical evaluation...together with the blood work.Medicine is no longer what it used to be...
However I am too tired to care.
Resting and enjoying the sunshine pouring through the many windows of my apartment.
Madhu...where are you...have you left for India.? Safe travels
Sandy I see you are having bad migraines...must be the time of year feel better soon...
Carol...would love to be with you for the book fair and a lovely ride in the green hills of England.
Mandy hope you are feeling better.
Winning.....
 
I would like to tell you all that I ran the London Marathon today, in my best time to date, of 2hrs 56seconds.........but I'd be lying .Maybe next year.
 
Hey Carol. Sorry to hear about the osteoporosis. I agree about the medicine now, they blindly order lab work before thinking about anything! Feel better soon.

I'm at the gate, ready to board. Waiting for Sandy ;)

Take care everyone. I ll pop in whenever I can :)
 
Have a good flight Madhu with lots of lovely airline repast.....may you arrive before you know you have left...just a bit of Irish for you.
Lovely sunny day today but cool temps.
I thought I saw you at the Marathon Carol...?....,!!
Still very weary....can't seem to pull myself together...tomorrow is another day
Cancer clinic check up.....it's like a zoo ....crowded lab ......then very crowded clinic...glad when it's over
Winning......
 
Safe travels. It's been raining all day so I have been trying to run errands, grocery shopping etc in between downpours. Not much fun. Hugs Trysha.
 
Hi all sorry its been a while... iv barely had time to myself lately. My sons girlfriend lost her father last week from cancer all rather sudden really. So its been a bit rough .
Iv had a rough time fatigue wise n been too tired for most part. Again my notifications for LOW have gone astray along with some others...😕
My son gets the keys to their own home this week,so got to help with some packing, as he at work as well as me.so we will both do a bit..
Hope you all are well and keep smiling ☺☺
Love and hugs 💕💕

Oh ye and I AM WINNING !!!
 
Oh Mandy, I'm sorry you and your son and his girlfriend have been dealing with so much. I hope things go smoother for you this week.
Madhu, am I too late? I'm just down the corridor...

Haha hee hee the win is for me. Il have the packing done in no time.. they dont call me blunder woman for nowt you know.. 😃
 
Hi all, sorry I've been quiet, trying to get over nasty infection. Back on antibiotics. Still waiting on my docs re low serum copper results and what the next steps are. Blood sugars through the roof due to infection steroids etc, not allowed to drive till its cleared. Mainly cause I keep falling asleep when I hit 100kmph
 
Ah Kirsty,I wish there was something I could do or say,that would help.
Sending you hugs,and Sandy and Trysha of course.You three seem to be top of the "sick" list lately.
 
I am joining the sick category. I am in a flare. Been making multiple bathroom trips, usually with "D", sometimes explosive "D". On again, off again abdominal pains, and yesterday, Green poop. I have an appointment to see my G.I.'s physician's assistant on Thursday. (I would have had to wait until May 30th to see my G.I.) I hate crohn's!
 
I wish I could do or say something also Kirsty. I've been wondering how you are doing.

Since I missed the plane to India, I just found out there is a new direct flight to London from Utah. Don't be surprised if some of you end up with a house guest for a day or week or month. Tee hee. (Don't you just hate it when people show up at your place unannounced?)
 
Hi all, big hugs to those on the sick list..💕 smaller hugs to those on the not quite so sick list..💕
For those not on any sick list who heck are you n whats your secret lol..😆😆😆
 
Hi Everybody
Cancer clinic check ok.no progression of blood cell dyscrasia...odds are on my side says the oncologist...next visit one year...so that's good news
Still very weary...hope it soon goes.,...have to start an intensive physiotherapy course on Monday ...lasts four weeks about....they pick me up from home and take me back after
Lunch and snacks provided....can't believe how lucky I am to be given a place in this programme.Looking forward to feeling better and being like a two year old again.......think I just saw a pig flying by the window!!
Sorry to hear you are poorly Doug....feel better soon.
Kirsty I wish I could wave a magic wand to make you better...feel better soon that's an order!
Mandy I hope you will soon be feeling better...I will make the sun shine for you...
Carol I love your quotes and words of wisdom
Shanen....hope the sun is shining for you after the rain
Sandy..you are welcome to drop into my place anytime...always have room for welcome visitors...we could have such conversations...
Winning.....
 
Hi Trysha glad to hear things are going ok for you. Thanks hun..
You take care and make the most of the free lunch n snacks girl. Hope the physio really helps:hug:💕
 
Oh Trysha, we could have some very interesting conversations indeed. I'm happy it was good news, but that sounds dreadfully frightening. Back to bed for me for a while as I'm fighting another migraine, not as bad as the other day, but bad enough. I Took a fiorecet an hour ago or I would not be able to post here. Why I feel a need to post when I know it doesn't help the situation at hand is beyond me, but I appreciate all of you for putting up with my gripes. Sometimes I just want to scream. I guess that's why I post when not well.
Argggggggghhhh!
There. I screamed. (Quietly so as not to wake further the migraine demons of sensitivity to light and sound.)
 
Hi Sandy....sorry to hear you are in the migraine doldrums.
At A recent visit with the neurologist he recommended I take Magnesium 500mg daily to stop the migraines and said it had been helpful to a number of patients
The rheumatologist because of my renal failure reduced the dose to 300mg daily,in two divided doses...150mg am and 150 mg pm.
So far so good.
Seems the time of year for migraine onslaughts.
Feel better soon...know how you feel....
Kirsty...hope you are a bit better today
Everyone get well and stay well.....
The sun is shining today and it's a balmy 12C......not taking off my winter coat yet.....
Winning......

When you say honestly why is it thats when i wonder ?? Haha .
Well it is france after all lol. X
 
I get to see the PA this afternoon. Of course my symptoms have decreased substantially after I made the appointment. Still not having much fun though. The "D" has been ruling my life the last several days.

I'll take my quiet win.
 
You weren't quiet enough, Mandy, I still heard you. But that is a good thing.:) Well, today Doug had his appointment at the GI office while I had a mammogram at the same time in another clinic. We've had enough doctors for a lifetime.
Just a humorous side note, just about every time I type out the name "Mandy," my auto correct feature changes it to "mammary." :rof:
Winning.
 
Haha Sandy...funny thing is i have been called a tit😉 and im always making boobs(mistakes)😃
Hope it does help with those nasty migraines hun. 💕😚
 
Sandy & Doug., More waiting for results I assume ? But as the saying goes, "Patience is a Virtue",and for some of us it's the only virtue we have,eh,Mandy ?

Not you two though,you both have the market cornered in virtue.x
 
I have been put on Entocort again. Will be on it for at least 2 months. The PA thinks this should put me back to remission. Waiting for results of blood tests. She ordered the battery of tests on the inflammation markers.
 
How much would you all hate me if I closed this thread and opened a new one? In all seriousness, huge threads like this can be rather taxing on the forum server. I'd let one of you win ;)
 
Hey ya everyone. Hugs to all those sick!

India is hot, hot, hot! But I still love it :)

Winning
