Part three. Useless GP visit follow on from Manchester
What can I say? As bad as expected?. Not received either the barium meal REPORT nor four page letter according to him. I gave him my copy. He glances through it. I say anaemia would tie in with my increasing tiredness and lack of energy to do minimal things. He looks at his screens, flit back and forth

Trouble swallowing
I have dysphagia, shortness of breath, sore throat, itchy painful ears. A feeling that my throat is constricting and pain in my chest I know is costachondritis, I also have acid reflux, incredibly painful heartburn. Also I have dizziness when I bend over and stand from bending to the point where I crashed

This was my Journey - It May be Helpful to You
I had my TURP (Trans Urethral Resection of the Prostate) in October of 2011 at age 65. Subsequent analysis of the material removed showed cancer cells in less than 5% of the material and Gleason graded 3+3=6. I was staged T1a by my urologist. To say I was shocked when I was told I had the big C, is

Severe spine and abdo pain
Hiya girls, Need a little bit of advice. Think I mentioned in one of my previous 2 posts some of the symptoms I've been having which are lower abdominal, pelvic and lower spine pain which is quite severe. Today I've been in absolute agony! I've taken four 30/500mg co-codamol and four extra relief paracetamols

Liver de-tox
Hi , I am sorry if all my posts are along the lines of "has anyone tried this!" But....has anyone tried an Epsom salts liver de-tox? I am up for trying anything that might help my condition, but, living as I do on my own, like to be able to talk things through with people in the same situation as myself

Daily running
I've been in Cornwall for a week with my gorgeous mum and sisters who live there. I've ran every day and clocked up 40 miles which is more than I've done over a week for a while. I wanted to share what I have learnt so far about daily running..... It's only now after 3 years that I feel my body is ready

There, that's better!
I knew a kicking from Laura would get me going again! Not a great distance but it if you extrapolate times it means I'll be doing 6.5 km in under an hour. Pretty slow I know but after the last effort I'm quite encouraged as I could have run a bit more. It's also a miserable truth that if you ran twice
