Things that go bump in the day
My neighbours are moving today - I had got the impression a few days ago that it was a few weeks before the actual move so a bit of a surprise to see the removal van outside when I got back from my morning run. Saying goodbye isn't really something I'm that good at - intense emotions and I just get

The Raining Has Stopped!
Well, this time a little time passing has been a positive thing. Yes, my son-in-law's father died yesterday. It was a blessing as he was very aggressively upset and did not know his family. And it had been expected for weeks. But the most wonderful news is that my son has turned the corner and though

Introducing myself
I should start by saying Hello to all. My name's Rich. This is my first post on the site. So, bear with me. It's long! About myself. In January 2009 I left sunny England to go travelling around New Zealand as a fit and healthy 29 year old. I first flew out to Thailand, which I loved so much, I

My partner is 4 months in from a hypoxic brain injury. After 3 weeks in critical care and 2 weeks on a stroke ward he was transferred to the only rehab unit in this county and has been an inpatient there for 3 months. Physically he isnt too bad (apart from stiff joints?) and is able to carry out all

Do you feel better on low-dose naltrexone?
A couple of people on here have said they're taking LDN, low-dose naltrexone. Does it help? In what way(s)? How long did it take to have an effect? Any downsides? I have given details on LDN to all my consultants, including Professor Khamashta. He was very interested but wanted more details

LDN low dose naltrexone
Hello spreading my good news. After a horrible bed ridden year of major fatigue and pain. I took the decision to stop methotrexate as I'd got worse not better from taking it. A friend of mine with ms told me about LDN, and how it was making a major difference to her in particular the fatigue. I looked

New to this so please be patient
I had a TBI as a result of a car accident in Feb 2012. I am left with double vision, nerve damage and weakness on the right hand side of my body, some memory problems and some personality changes. I am still getting use to the 'new me'. I think I like her though, I am more outspoken and confident on

"I'm coming home, tell the world that I'm coming home" 'Strength in broken places, eh?'
"Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes I'm coming home, I'm coming home Tell the World that I'm coming I'm back where I belong, yeah I never felt so strong.." As nice as a song this is, the melody hurts me, leaves me tight chested.

Has anyone found that certain drugs make anxiety worse?
For example, I took a Circadin (melatonin) and now I'm really anxious and nervous. Is this normal? What other drugs cause this?

Distract yourself from the pain...
....But preferably NOT by having a freak accident involving chasing a pet rabbit round the garden and ending up taking a layer of skin off your knuckles so that the new pain from the wounds cancels out the old and irritating bit of pain elsewhere. Now I will have to distract myself from the new

Who doesn't just love paying their taxes?
Now I've never had to pay tax in my life, it's the main reason I became a student, but for those who do, I (and I'm sure a lot of you) have certainly managed to get my money's worth in benefits, sick pay, free medication etc. If I lived in another country and my health plan didn't cover it, I'm sure

ostomy frequency at night
I'm an Ostomate since 2010, 66 years old woman and wheelchair bound . I can't do much for myself , but learned to change my colostomy pouch with one hand . Because i'm only got liquid output i don't sleep much at night for fear of accidents . How can I overcome those problems ?

Many intensive care patients suffer pain up to a year after leaving hospital, a study has suggested. The research also found a quarter of the patients were dependent on help with washing and dressing, months after their discharge. Almost 300 intensive care patients answered questions for the study

Do any of you wear SOS talismans or Medic-alert tags?
I don't think I fully understood how serious my condition was when I was first diagnosed, it was only after one of my medications cased my AF to become VF and I collapsed in the street that it occurred to me to get an SOS talisman. I was so seeply unconscious that I was unresponsive and became incontinent

Bioppsy by General Anaesthetic
Just heard from the Cancer specialist Nurse that I am to have a biopsy via general anaesthetic. The Oncologist did tell me last week it would be done either by a needle to draw off or general anaesthetic - the problem with general anaesthetic they could perforate my bowel. Has anyone else had it done

Winter has arrived!
Woke up this morning with chattering teeth (not really but it felt like it). Coldest morning so far this year at 14 degrees (and Yes I know that's not really cold for you in Blighty, but it is for Brisbane) with the thermometer dropping to 10 deg. on Saturday. Maybe its because after so long in Queensland
