Hope you're already feeling loads better and sleep well tonight!

Oh Sylvi, poor you. I've got a slipped disc in my neck and I know it's agonising, although I'm over the acute phase. Take it very easy and be kind to yourself. Xx

Try a good osteopath mine is £25 for 30 minutes but great. Worth every penny and also try a bag of frozen peas. Its not as comfortable as heat but increases blood supply and relives pain. On for 10 minutes, then off same time.

Take care Sylvi, I hope you get sorted soon xx

I am a major computer gamer, so if you can't sleep, computer games are the way to go :-) (at least for me). Hope you are feeling better this morning..

I will try darling. We are on a lovely site and our caravan is lovely as well. There is also a lot of wildlife here as well loads of ducks and moorhens that i have seen so far.xxxx

Seeing your comment and reading the others reminds me just how many of us there are out there, I had to laugh as it took me 2 hours to actually get out of bed this morning, I was thrashing (gently) around like some beached whale to get into the right and less painful position, god knows what I looked like. :)

It is 4.15am here darling and your comments has made me have a quiet laugh here in the caravan where we are staying. I mean the things we do to get going in the morning is so funny.xxxx

If you don't laugh you cry, my neighbour always says I make her laugh and some of the conversations I have with my brother about the effects of some medication (codeine) cannot be printed, but if anyone knows the side effects they will understand :).

We all have to smile and continue in the face of adversity, fighting the DWP doesn't help us at all, but then they don't care about people only money.
