I had a medical crisis, I didn't die, I wonder why
Last summer I had a medical emergency. The odds were it would kill me but I survived with few life threatening consequences. The problems I had are commonly fatal for 80 year old men. There is a message in my experience which I hope to share with you in this article. It is a bit longer than most

So happy
Brilliant day. Had him standing up and down a few times, before hoisting him into chair. Actually dressed in own clothes. Ventilator on zero and they're going to try him overnight as well. If that's okay, they'll keep it at zero. Sent sputum off to see how long he'll need antibiotics. Physio said he's

A fabulous little run this morning.
Well I think I can say that was a-maz-ing A beautiful morning for a run - cool but dry and no ice. So I set off and decided to do 2x5 minute runs with a little walk in between. Physio had said on Friday to do runs with intervals for the next few weeks and to keep up the exercises he has given me

Hubby was laughing and pulling such expressions when son was taking the mickey out of him. Of course physio came and wore him out as usual

Some Tentative Good News
I'm hesitant to jinx things but I've spoken several times on the forum about my battles over the last two years with dizziness and severe balance issues. Which literally came on overnight. Was diagnosed with Vestibular Migraine which I've never really accepted, I think the Neurologist and ENT consultant

RED February completed 🥳🥳
Well, it definitely wasn’t what I’d planned, but I finished it. To be fair, it was more correctly WED February. Having been suffering with piriformis issues ever since last September and having had numerous physio appointments, exercises etc. I was feeling a bit better so signed up for RED Feb on 29

Frequent injuries when exercising.
I have been hypo for about 10 years, currently on 75mcg levo, and 10mcg lio but drop to 5mcg twice a week, otherwise my heart rate goes up from 60’s to 90’s. TSH 0.01, FT4 16.1, FT3 4.6, both 41% through range. Vit D 85. I find if I do even pilates, ligaments and bursae get easily inflamed. Eg an ankle

Bad day
A bad day for him today. He was sick before I got there, had a temperature and Dr thinks an infection. They've sent cultures off so they know what antibiotics to give him. Because of that, he's very confused, he mimed to me that the nurse is trying to kill him, I said no, she's trying to help you. He
