@MeiChanski @helensaramay the organiser of the Meatup tomorrow evening has asked that you could sign up to the Meet-up group for approval, I think she’s been getting some grief.

I’m very glad you are hypo aware when driving but I think keeping something permanently in the car to stop a potentially serious hypo rather than parking it in a spot that could cause problems to you and other people is probably easier and safer. I’m excluding acute hypoglycaemia that needs...

It’s ****** rotten isn’t it. It’s relatively common following spinal/epidural anaesthesia but I don’t know much about any other causes. Blood patches are usually the ‘cure’ and the other one is time. Are you seeing anaesthesiologists? Post edited by moderator for language

Rotten isn’t it. Is that common for you? I’d be seeking help if it were that bad, it may not be indigestion.

The surgery gets paid for your diabetic ‘care’ I’d refuse to go and you can tell the practice manager that under no circumstances will you be seeing that particular person agin and they are to provide you with the appropriate support.

You potentially have another 20 years on this planet, would you like to live that time being cared for or with the freedoms you choose?

I see no reason why not as theoretically, you lot are my +1’s

You sound like you’d walk through fire to get there @MeiChanski!

Location TBC but BS1 or very close, 19.00 - 21.00 and because it’s small, this one will be more a social gathering to make friends and contacts and to sort out future meets. I’m not the organiser and they’ve asked for a quid towards the organisation.

There is no need to eat more than once a day if that’s what you normally do, intermittent fasting has been proven to be nothing but beneficial, humans are designed to eat that way. Breakfast was invented by a resourceful cereal manufacturer called Mr Kellog so he could get rich. As for the...

We are having a Meat Up on Wednesday, who’s coming?

Home. The physical is healing, the mental and emotional not so much but I’m working on it. Gastro OPD appt and colonoscopy to be arranged and the definitive Crohn's or not diagnosis still pending.

I’m very glad you are wearing pants :wideyed:

Obvs.

You have to ask??!!

You are all wonderful. Thanks for the PM’s and thoughts, they really do help and I have plans in place for my care and treatment. I’m happy to be staying in for pain management, not changing my diet and doing the reading necessary to potentially learn about a new condition but I have a suspicion...

Thanks lovely, that’s all been explored

There’s certainly no raw liver or juicy ribeye steak, that’s for sure! It’s a good reason to fast though. I’m attempting lots of humour because I’m concerned our WOE could possibly be the cause and I simply cannot ‘go back’, that frightens me more than the pain.

Thanks for that, it’s very useful in that none of that applies to me so I can see why they are none the wiser. Today I’m feeling a little more upbeat but still can’t stand up straight and my belly is still swollen and very tender. Just waiting for the ward round.

It won’t be long before you see that stuff as poison and feel sorry for those that still buy it.
