Four appointments in five days the other week.....

Sorry it has taken so long to write about these appointments,but life gets in the way sometimes. The first was for my knee that i had replaced twice. The apt time was 4pm and we got out of ther at 6.30pm. I had to have a x-ray then the wait began to see the gorgeous consultant(i can window shop with the best of them) X|-rays didb't show anything so the gorgeous Mr. Spalding(did i say he was gorgeous) sees all his patients hence we was so long. I am now waiting to have a scan on it as he agreed something was not right with it.

The second was on the Saturday with the neurosurgeon and he was lovely and he wants me to have another MRI on my back.

The third was on the Sunday and this was my pain infusion which went well and i made a couple of friends who both have Fibro. The infusion helped my Fibro if nothing else. That bone breaking pain you get from fibro was gone thank goodness.

The fourth was on the Monday and this was a follow up from my bariatric surgery(weight loss surgery) it was a pschcologist(excuse spelling) and i did say to him that i have had no regrets about having the surgery. I have since lost five stone in weight.

Today i am seeing the rheumy at my hospital and i hope something good comes out of it,but i very much doubt it,but we will see. Anyway stay safe in this cold spell of bad weather we are having. Hugs to you all.xxxxx

Your appointments are like buses , nothing for ages and then they all come at once . Do put your feet up and rest afterwards and be careful when you’re out and don’t slip like poor Deejojo . A fall can take ages to get over even if you have no injuries 🌺🌺🌺

I'm so pleased you enjoyed your window shopping lol, makes the day worthwhile, made me giggle. We are kinda snowed in, the country has came to a standstill and in red alert. No shops open and transport all off, it was so quiet yesterday, hardly a car on the road. I am Ayrshire and it's not changed this morning, supposed to be more snow. Take care xx

Gorgeous tulips!

You have gone through and endure much.

I hope you are keeping well in this Siberian flavour weather!

Blimey! A proper social whirl. I do hope you manage to get some warmth and rest in between all these appointments and they lead to a better course of treatment. Huge hugs

Wow, you have been busy. I don’t know how you keep track of all your appointments! Everything seemed very positive. Take care in the snow. My road, a main road but not a bus route, is unusable at the moment because it has a hill to get over the canal and the cars are all getting stuck. My daughter, a teacher, is happy because they have a snow day tomorrow!

I keep a diary of them all i have to otherwise i would forget when i have to go to them darling. R|e; the snow we have got off lightly here in Bulkington not much snow compared to others in the country,but it is bitterly cold and i haven't been out unless it is to appointments with hospital doctors so i have stayed in the warm,but yesterday i was cold even in the house which has been unusual as my house is quite warm.xxxxxx

We’ve suffered lightly compared to other parts of the country, although my puppy had snow up to his ‘armpits’ when he went out this morning. My son lives in the Cotswolds and is snowed in - it’s supposed to be his stag weekend this weekend!
