NannyDoreen & Upndown's daily diaries

Good afternoon ladies :)

Hi - hope ur having a good day - bet you'll have a lot of those - now your wearing your Miss Slinky sash and crown!? x
 
Thanks for the link, will read on laptop later. Good luck with the willpower! Xx

Edit : Having read the link and done a bit more research, I think I'd want to check with the consultant as it appears it can be affected by anti-coagulant drugs, which is part of what I have to take daily. I'll mention it at my next appointment, though that isn't until after Christmas now. Thanks again though and glad it helps your hands. x

Oooh gosh yes u must check - I don't want to make you ill!!xx
 
Don't panic, I doubt it would but just don't want to risk a flare. Most of the time it's fine with my regular meds, though my girls always make me triple check I've got them if we're going anywhere for a few days!

How's your day going? The baby is sleeping, her Mum is doing their ironing and I've been reading for a while. Was going to go for a walk but ran out of time as shopping delivery due in half an hour. Boring but I should go empty the dishwasher I guess, it won't empty itself unfortunately :/
 
Hi all! Hope you're feeling a bit (well, a lot, actually) better, upndown. Hope you get another good sleep tonight too! I was reading what you'd said about the turmeric helping with arthritis and thought I would also mention it next time I see the rheumatologist. I've had rheumatoid Arthur since 1998 (same year as I had a brain haemorrhage too - I don't do things by half!) and it's mostly under control but it'd be good to find out if I can have turmeric, just for when I have the flare ups. Minis is full of useful info!! :)

I hope Doreen got on ok with her appointment. She's sorely missed when she disappears, isn't she? Such a lovely lady.

Anyway, good luck with your next weigh-in, upndown (and to you all, obviously) and let's hope that's the one positive you'll gain from being ill. Take care.

Evening ladies. Linda, hope you got through the day and found things to keep you and Poppy busy. How is her back now? Is she with you again tonight?

Hope Doreen is having a good time and that Mo is alright too, are you looking in Mo, you've been very quiet? xx

Well Poppy felt better as the day went along - so did a few activities with her - we made some sf jelly for later too. We picked her sister Isabel up from school as their Mum is working today - they often like to stay on Tuesday - Poppy asked for a curry - so I'd better get my skates on with that!

Hope everyone's happy with their day - here's how mine went:

B: banana, plum and yog
L: half a pack of pasta'n'sauce with cherry toms, banana and mullerlight
T: SW beef curry (made with lots of veg), rice, meringue 2.5 syns, sf free jelly shared between 3 - 1 syn? I'm sure I had something else so will guess at 5 syns!

Total - 8.5 syns - will edit if/when I remember!
 
Morning all have a good day x

Morning all. This is the first moment I have had to take a breath. What with school runs and after school activities and a 20wk old puppy to take out, bed making, loading & unloading dishwasher --- NO no ironing.

I have not been writing down my food, but will start from yesterday.

hexa milk hexb bread

Brunch eggs bacon mushrooms and 3 toast (2.1/2 syns)

3 bananas

D: pork in a chasseur sauce (2 syns) with veg added and boiled spuds with skin .

5 cream crackers. (10 syns)

total 14.1/2

I am going to get weighed this morning at 11.30, will let you know how I get on. My scales say 1/2lb.
 
I see some of you have mentioned my hospital appointment with the neurologist. Firstly he says that what my sister has (Neuromyotonia) is not genetic. The condition is muscles moving/twitching. I have it in my legs but my sister now has it all over her body and is tired all the time. Her specialist says her muscles will seize in time unless she takes epilepsy pills. (another story) My legs are worse when I have been walking.
He has done blood tests, and I am to have an MRI scan. He says it is sometimes due to a back problem. I forgot to tell him I have spondilocis in my neck, but I will be seeing him again.

He poked me with a pin up and down my legs and my feet. One toe is a bit numb from diabetes. When he run a stick up and down my feet I nearly kicked him. Don`t like bottom of feet being touched. Anyway he says as I have been diabetic for 10 years that is a very good sign of good control, even if I do have the odd lapse.

I am not worried at all. If the MRI shows up anything when I have it I will worry then.

Have a good day all. Weigh in results later.

My mum suffers with spongilitits in her neck and I see how much pain she is in so understand it must be painful for you, hope they get to the bottom of it for you xx

Thanks. In actual fact I am really lucky I very rarely get much bad pain these days. I sure the doc will see it on the MRI.
 
How about this then. Lost 3lbs!! :)

Brilliant Doreen!! Obviously keeping busy has been good for you. Good to hear about hospital too, in fact all good news, just don't get toooooo worn out. Xx
