Graduation Run in the bag
When I began C25K back in November and the 60 sec. runs were hard work. Running for 30 mins non-stop again seemed an almost impossible goal. Despite having to take six weeks out due to knee impact injuries in W4 and restarting from W2 again. Then having 2 weeks out when we had heavy snow. I managed

How do I cope with video calls
Hi, my husband has been in ICU on a ventilator for a month having contracted Covid at Christmas. He was given a tracheostomy last week and today I was able to have a video call with him for the first time. Obviously he can not speak, but I think he recognised me. I found it quite distressing to see him

The most distressing thing is that he often seems disorientated and has a poor short term memory. Also he gets fixated on an idea which isnāt true but canāt be

Thread to help those suffering with birth trauma
Hi there I thought I'd create this thread for people to vent about their birth experiences I've noticed since the birth of my daughter 10 days ago there's not much support there are health visitors and midwives but I'm finding the support inadequate for example this morning I get a call from the midwife

Secondary pneumonia- post covid/ventilator
Hi everyone, My dad is off the vent and off sedation. He is breathing on his own but still in the hospital. However, today they said his breathing was a bit laboured. They also said his white blood count was low. They are suspecting secondary bacterial pneumonia. They have already started treating it

Completed!
Iāve just completed my fourth 30 minute run. I felt up for the thirty minutes by the end of Week 7. At 63 carrying just shy of 13 stone I never believed I could do it. Those 60 second runs scared me in week 1. I also got an injury part way through and after resting three weeks had to go back three weeks

Doctors
If pain treatment and/or desperately needed referrals are refused where can you get help? As a result of this treatment (or lack of it) in June 2019, I quickly needed to use crutches. Nov 2020, my severe bone on bone hip gave way, and I broke the good leg. Reluctance to answer my calls for help

Does anyone take supplements only for UC and IBS-C rather than prescription drugs?
I was diagnosed with UC about 20 years ago and have been in remission for a while but have constipation. I'm prescribed Mezavant XL and docusate sodium, when I remember to take them. I've also been taking slippery elm and psyllium husk more often as prefer to take this in an attempt to keep me regular

Is infrared therapy helpful for pmr?
I have recently been diagnosed with fairly severe osteoarthritis in my knee and also pmr. Some research suggests infrared therapy is helpful in relieving arthritis pain. Has anyone used it to help pmr pain and stiffness? I am thinking of buying an infrared lamp. Thanks.
