I apologies for not replying to everyone. My ribs are still playing up but improving, I have also had this flu type bug for six weeks now. I have been ordered to rest but have been told I can get up for a couple of hours twice a day.

I have been given a long appointment slot on Dec23 with my GP to try to sort me out.

Gives her time to make the bed!!!! jools

Sorry to hear there hasn't been much improvement. Don't overdo it when you get up for a short while. I'd send hugs, but I'm scared of hurting your poor ribs. As Julie says, let's hope you are feeling better in time for christmas. Kath xx

Richard How many times have you told me to take it easy? Do as you are told! You don't want to spend Christmas in hospital. I do hope you feel better soon . Can you see your GP or consultant any earlier? Thinking of you.

Sorry to hear you are having a bad time. I do not log in every day so was unaware that you had been unwell. I am sure you will be sensible and obey orders to enable a speedy recovery!. We need to laugh - daily if possible! Patience is a virtue but is hard to achieve sometimes. Take care.
