Despite the weather its not been to bad . Ron and me had a lay in . Yes that's right @ickihun Ron had a lay in.Hope everyone is having a great Bank Holiday weekend.
No you won't , try some breathing exercises . Relax your arms and legs, close your eyes . Now breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Ron says he can't do this as his lungs hurt.I'm starting to get anxious about the endoscopy precedure on Wednesday. I've decided to take the whole family for distraction for before and afterwards. They are going for a late breakfast in the hospital restaurant. Lucky them.
I'm going to re read their instructions for me. I stopped lansoprozol as instructed nearly 2wks ago. Eating gaviscon liquid like water to keep acid from burning my gullit. I've woke twice on various nights with reflux in my mouth. I fear I will choke in my sleep.
I know how he feels some days. Without painkillers those spasms take my breath away too.No you won't , try some breathing exercises . Relax your arms and legs, close your eyes . Now breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Ron says he can't do this as his lungs hurt.

Johnny!My blood glucose reading this morning was 9.6. That was after medication. I've been eating chicken and vegetable soup that I cooked from scratch yesterday evening, which included diced potatoes in their skins, and I regrettably ate the whole massive pot.
Not mine.Ickihun - Whilst I appreciated your children will serve as a distraction for you, do you maybe not feel your anxiety abou the process might lead them to be unsettled and anxious too?
Children can be amazing at picking up vibes.
All went exceptionally well. Had sedation due to anxiety.My only further comment on the watching/being there aspect is, watching a film, documentary or even a live op is one thing. It's quite different when it's someone near and dear.
In my way, way back, professional life I saw countless invasive procedures, and carried out countless myself, so blood, guts and all that goes with it were very much my stock in trade. When I had an "iffy" mole removed from my lower calf, the surgeon questioned the wisdom of my watching over the scrubs. I was fine until the scalpel drew my blood, from my leg, and it started to trickle towards the operating table.
The surgeon laughed quite loudly when I asked if he could pause whilst I lay down.
As I say, it's not quite the same when a process comes to one's own planet, but I'm sure you'll do what you feel is best.
I wish you well for today, @ickihun .
Thank you @JohnnyBaker12021970prayers to god the father and his only begotten son jesus christ on high for you, @ickihun, my lovely friend, for a straightforward, safe and successful medical procedure. may jesus be with you the whole time, holding your little hand and upholding you in his loving arms. my prayer candle will be burning for you all day long. much love to you, mr.ickihun and your two lovely children.
lots of love, dear @ickihun,

I know when it's me I get very bad tempered when I'm tired.Looks like Ron may of had a M.E. relapse these past two days . He has been to bed both afternoons , only getting up for his tea and then going back to bed . Tonight he has snuck into bed whilst my back was turned . I know he's tired but his therapist has told him not to have afternoon naps . So what should I do , go in and drag him out of bed or should I just leave him? I have had to get him up both afternoons, and today he wanted to stay in bed but I told him he had to shift as I wasn't leaving the room until he was up.
According to Ron he said last night he just went to put on his Pjs and he felt so tired he just layed down on the bed . This morning he got up at 5 sat in his recliner and fell asleep waking up at around 8 am. We've been out today and he's also been doing jobs in the garden which has tired him out but he's still up . Lol.I know when it's me I get very bad tempered when I'm tired.
He must try and not make it a habit.
High bgs leave me exhausted, especially on not being able to walk. Our walking attempts are painful and exhausting but depression can very much call on your bed.
Looks like more nice weather on the way. He needs an excuse for an afternoon out.
Tell him he can come and visit as soon as I have op date. He must do some practice runs first, maybe.
Little by little. He needs a goal hun.
Awake at 3 am tasking my brain into how I can lose the 3kg needed for an op date.
I might have to try metformin again. It has helped so much in my life. Maybe it will help me here again.
Ive had very very little IBS pain since stopping it thou. So I've been able to stop mebeverine tablets.
Iron has been good since stopping lansoprozol for this precedure so no need for asthma inhalers recently either.
So no metformin, no lansoprozol, no asthma 3x inhalers and no mebeverine tablets lately.
