I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

You're right @TAB
It can be better to have unpleasant tests - I am sure of that
But I often wonder at how many I have been asked to have when I have no symptoms
But I did the one for occult blood when they sent me a package a few years ago - it didn't cost me anything and it was done in the privacy of my own home and it was clear
Tab - you are probably right and I was being flippant

Hi thanks for checking in @Kurra. I suspected things weren't going so well. I hope you hold that depressive phase at bay. I guess you've painted a black picture because there's stuff you're dealing with that feels heavy. Just wanted you to know that I'm thinking of you and hoping you gut a break soon from all the stresses you are experiencing, you deserve some more joy again and that free spirited Kurra to have her wings back to fly.
Sending hugs 💜🤗

Hey @TAB glad all went well with the procedure. It's cool to read the relief you have for it all being over. Now you can put it behind you for a bit and all the family stuff and just be you for a bit. Hugs 💜🤗
