Nanny1086 profile image
Nanny1086β€’ in reply toBilliejean_2

Haha ,if only , I'd send it it a rather angry email ,haha ,

No I just know I've had it many times and it's got loads of letters in the name ,

Wishing you better asap Nanny. Just thought Id mention that ginger is brilliant for nausea. You can get the root and grate it into a tea, or cook it into all kinds of things - but the tea's easiest. It really works for me - might be worth a try and no harm can come of it :)

Sorry you are not well, there's loads going round.

Check you'll still be having the lung function test on 22nd.. They don't do it within 6 weeks of steroids for sure, and according to many have posted on here before, wait applies to ABs, too..
