Thats really bad luck- so sorry for all the bad karma coming at once.
Will they have more patches in the morning?
I hope things work out better soon.
Thinking of you.
cheers buddy the patches were delivered 8 30 this morning am back on earth now !! could have killed next doors cat yesterday lol
Well Stan that was very cruel of you to want to kill the cat xx
oh beady beady dont tell me that you have never come across that saying before it was ripe when i was living in the MIDLANDS???? its just an expression used to let off steam read my post [what a start for 2017] maybe you will see what i mean or am i reading you wrong????
beady3, I have to agree with you 110%. Even though I am sure the comment was meant in jest, it clearly was not thought through before being said. I guess you have to be a parent of a fur-baby to truly understand.
If I could the get. The. fur baby that keeps doing a mess on my plans well I will wish you a good night
Well, my now moved-out nextdoor neighbours had four cats that used my garden as their personal litter tray and killed all the birds. No good talking to the neighbours - the cats are only behaving naturally. If somebody had suggested strangling them, I wouldn't have done much to dissuade them - with or without RLS-related exasperation. Luckily the cats and their owners left, and the birds have returned
What a stressful day! If your legs are giving you gyp how do you watch a video. I try standing up watching TV but my legs don't like me standing still so I generally walk around doing chores so, inevitably, I miss bits.
Me too lois Tonya. Cannot sit or stand still. When I am up with RLS I either walk around the house or stand with my feet/legs tensed up for as long as I can stand it and then walk again. I never sit for any length of time in the evenings. Nightmare isn't it.
Hi Keiralee,
As my legs are at their best in the morning I take advantage of the chance to sit down and save the chores for the evening. I do play board games from 6.30 pm and my mates have got used to me walking around the room between my goes.
Oh man those days such and I had a couple of them this week alone
On the plus side at least when a heap of sh1te happpens at once it gets it all over and done with!!
hi raffs you got it in one
O heck, what a day you had. Hope you got those patches now and your chest medication. Feel better soon. x
hi ELISSE thanks for posts patches/chest meds here this morning am on the mend now
I just started a low dose of Prempro yesterday morning. I am on RLS meds in the form of a patch called Neupro.
Last I had the worst case of RLS of my life! Had I known that it could tear me up like this I would never have agreed to take it. What's more RLS isn't even included on the sided affects nor was it discussed with me by my gyno. I had to look it up online to find the truth.
