Happy ahhh let me explain

4 Replies

Hi

I just wanted to thank people for feedback and questions on this forum - over a strange few years of meds, housebound, in hospital - I come here every time i am on a new dose or medication - but realise that has to be vice versa.

Sorry just feeling nostalgic tonight and I learn more here than through a doc or consultant.

Hope everyone is feeling as good as can and if not hugs and hugs.

Everyone here has helped me get me on with life:-)

Jxxxxx

Hi Julie, Nice to meet you and I'm glad that you find this place helpful. I do too, even though I haven't been here all that long (a few weeks). You want to join us in camping and on our trip to the North Pole where it'll be at least a little cooler?

I too haven't been visiting this site for very long but have found it great reading people's postings. Sometimes you can really relate well to what is being said, remembering our own experiences and being able to share them. I haven't been having a good few days as i had a bad do on tuesday when my tongue decided to swell as well as my asthma flare up. Am now on pred yet again but managed to get back to work today. Am having spirometry test next week at physio but she forgot to tell me what it involves and I didn't think to ask. Gather it is a simple breathing test to confirm I have asthma - I thought my peak flows told me that along with my incessant bouts of coughing on a very regular basis.

I'll second that - thanks to everyone. Being able to read other people's experiences, and being able to ask questions has made such a difference, and taken a lot of the 'fear factor' out of things
