Hello BLF friends

My daughter is finally on seven days antiviral drugs for her shingles..and they think she’s got chronic fatigue..who wouldn’t..

Aria and I enjoyed the sunshine!

Tomorrow is Apnea test. I have to be there at 4.30 pm and bring the machine back the next morning.

Did anybody have that sleeping test??

Have a nice evening xx

Better news for Bea and nice to see Aria amongst the plants.

Pete had the sleep study done some years ago and the hospital advised him to use a machine each night. He couldn’t get on with having to wear the mask so that was the end of that. Good luck to you Fran. Xxxxx

Never mind, probably a glitch. Xxxxx

My husband had the test last year . He wore the machine overnight without any problems and result was clear

in reply to joyce74

I see.. I may have apnea I think, I wake up gasping for air..we’ll see..not looking forward to having a machine at night.

Thanks for the info 😊

I have an attack of shingles in my face at present. How late can you be before taking anti virals?

in reply to Leesea

I don’t know I left 10th of November she was unwell but we didn’t know what then she had glands a cold sinus

the spots only came out last week

and this week end I saw the measles looking ones so she got a hospital appointment yesterday brcause it is on the face pressing on her eye and then they gave her 7 days antivirals.

Ask your GP is best. Take care xx
