Feeling traumatised and frightened.
On the 30th of September without previous signs and symptoms I had a
cardiac
arrest
. I am finding the whole experience very difficult to come to terms with and to understand. I feel frightened and depressed.

Viral Meningitis infection - how long will the symptoms last?
I was rushed to A+E 3 weeks ago with a suspected bleed on the brain, after a stay in hospital and multiple tests - Drs told me I had a Viral Meningitis infection, once my hydration had been topped up I was sent home with little information, other than I should make a recovery in 7-10days, after talking

Today is day four and yesterday I felt pretty well and went to the shops.... today I feel totally drained and tearful and I’m wondering when

Do’s and Dont’s after FET?
Hey everyone, This is a really random post so I apologise in advance, but I’m looking for some reassurance and advice on what you can and can’t do during the TWW following an FET. My FET is scheduled for Tuesday! I usually walk about 15,000 steps a day, moderate pace. Can I still do that after the first

Consultation with GP and Paramedic done this morning. GP says from my symptoms I am very likely to be anemic due to how much blood I've lost and have an infection. Bloods taken and a good check up and will know for definite tomorrow. She's putting me on a fruit juice supplement as I hardly eat and am
