Hi Tulip, me..too (L....O....L...) that won't be good for us then......I have to have some one to drive me to meet up for a coffee somewhere...where is it North Bournemouth???, well I start taking this supplement...it seem I am getting more energy...let me become a guinea pig..and I let you know if it is working...as NHS do not cover this...but I heard it is brilliant..you know I used to work selling pharma's drug..none of them work on me (pharma's drug only help suppress the symptom) so I m off them completely as I have been on them for sooooo looooong..and getting worse..and I spoke to my gps...they told me try massage..accupunture..and I told them about these supplements ..they said that they know nothing about it..but if it is work for me...why not?, who is your GPS?

Kinson is down the road. I'm glad your energy levels are improving. I'm registered at Bearwood Medical Centre. Best I've ever known. My GP is trained in accupuncture, it does help a lot for some. For me, they either ping straight out or the next day feel like I'm at death's door, I'm not but that's how it felt. Par for the course really! :)

Keep up the good work, ie. doing everything you can to feel better! :)

I just want to wish you all the best of luck with this. But please stay safe if meeting people off the internet that you do not know. Always meet and stay in a public / safe place.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Hi Ken,

Thank you for such a gentle reminder, you are right..mostly with our fragile condition...I am a house bound though...so they have to visit me..or some one have to drive me for coffee...(LOL), but I hope to be able to mobile soon..I just being re-assessed the lady who came to the house seems very helpful and knowing that I could not move easily she asked me to perform movement and nearly fainted..she was apologizing, I was surprise that I have got a letter from DWP a week after stating they have got all the necessary report and would be able to make decision...that is worrying..I hope they have given me the right decision...I never claim any benefit in my life..this is the first time...as my GP keep on and on at me..THANKS again KEN
