I have just started HD and travelling a minimum of 1.5 hours each way. Does anyone have any tips on coping with the travelling?
The travelling is very tiring and makes for a very long day that is making me weak ill miserable and depressed. I would also like any tips people have for a) Killing time on the machine. b) Managing the back pain caused by sitting in one position for four hours. c) Coping with the depression caused

Hey, my father has recently sustained a brain injury after sustaining a blow to the head in a violent attack. He was knocked unconscious but came to quite soon after. We've been told that the CT scan showed contusions in the brain. His current GCS score is 13 and this has remained stable for the last

How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb? GOLDEN RETRIEVER: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb? BORDER COLLIE: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code. DACHSHUND

Bladder problems after laproscopy
Hi everyone. I had my laproscopy early Tuesday morning. I was told id be in and out. I had 2 large cysts removed and a small amount of old edometriosis was found which i think shows taking the pill back to back has worked. When I woke up I had a drain fitted through my tummy and a catheter inserted.

Sensation of smell, or a taste in your mouth, with deja vu
Hi all, popped over here from the Action on Depression community. Was just wondering if anyone else had ever experienced (prior to or during a panic attack) either a powerful sensation of a smell, or a taste in their mouth, at the same time as a disorientating feeling of deja vu? I used to get that

Macaroon Danger
Hi Everyone, a quick hopefully humorous note. Part of my heritage is Jewish (my mother was half Jewish and we also have a Quaker heritage, interesting combination) and a friend gave me a box of macaroons for Passover. They are lovely and I love Jewish food. Last night, I thought I would have just

Weekend Wit- keeping with the golf theme
A couple were playing around of golf on the weekend of their 40th anniversary, just as they have done every weekend since they first met, and to celebrate their special occasion were given a sumptuous meal and champagne, laid on by the golf club as a gift. At the table the husband plucked up courage

Good news after the disaster of ATOS
Got home feeling really fed up after the ATOS fiasco (see my earlier post) to find a letter from Addenbrookes from the immunologist saying that I need immunoglobulin therapy and a £10 gift card from M&S after I complained! At least hopefully once the therapy starts I won't suffer from continual infections

Haemodialysis and Calcification
My wife has been on APD for 2 years now. She went into hospital with lower back pain. They have diagnosed Calcification. The only cure is to put her on intensive haemodialysis for 6 days a week, with an injection of drug after each session. This will last for 6 months. Only other alternative is palliative
