@Former-Member , have you drank any water today my friend 🧡

My husband blood goes high and then sometimes low

It was sunny this morning and the is after a storm and rain 🌧 back again

A lady who we mowed the lawn when she goes away put on a morning tea for us to say thank you 😊

@Shaz51 I've had water today yes. Have actually drank more than I normally would.

I just wish they could find out what's causing this before it's too late.

A bit of sunshine would have been nice before the rain set in again.

Awww that would have been nice 😊

@Former-Member I think the not-knowing would be the most agonising part for me... I really feel for you.

Sigh. My brain clearly wants sooo badly to help, but I'm not sure any of the suggestions it has would actually be helpful. Unless you think a cold bath and a cup of tea are actually reasonable suggestions? 😅

Hugs hun, for whatever they're worth 🫂

@Jynx even my doctor is frustrated that noone can work out what's going on. It's so scary especially when I'm still relatively young.

If i could stand long enough I'd have a cold shower but literally as soon as I stand i feel sick and start blacking out.

Hugs are definitely needed right now so thankyou ♥️

@Former-Member yeah 100%, I have been navigating some health issues and when the tests continually come up 'no you're fine lol' it feels really crappy. Like 'oh ok I'm fine... can you tell that to my chronic pain please?' Sounds like this has been hovering over you for some time too, sooo rough.

Any sink you can reach? I'm guessing shower-bath combo so you couldn't just sit on floor of shower?

You need one of these lol then if stuff is up on a bench you can still get it!! 🤣

Hmm? Saw what? You up to mischief over here? Teehee

@Jynx that's the thing my levels come back showing that there's something major going on but then when they do further testing it comes up clear. Like they've tested for things that are extremely rare just to try and find an answer. One time they thought I had internal bl***ding cos of the levels that came back but scans showed I was clear another time it showed that my gall bladder was affected and they thought I was going to have to be rushed to surgery but then scans again ruled that out. It just doesn't make sense and it's so frustrating.

I do hope they can find out what's going on for you though.

I have a separate bath but I wouldn't fit in it 😂.

And i definitely need one of those 😂

@Former-Member oh that sounds doubly frustrating!! Like your body is playing hide and seek with the scans.... Geez that's hard. I have even more understanding now of why heading into hospital would feel so unappealing for you.

Aww thanks chicken, that means a lot 🥰

I was thinking about getting one of those portable baths at one point... I realised that I am far too clumsy and would probably end up spilling like 50L of water across my carpet 🤣

@Jynx it's like part of me wants to spend as long as it takes in hospital trying to find out what's going on but the other part of me is like what's the point going cos they can never work it out.

I just walked from the kitchen to my bedroom which is less than 20 steps away and I'm puffing and panting like I've just run a marathon. My chest is tight and it hurts, my left arm is weak and aches, my jaw aches. This really mimics the symptoms of a heart attack. It really worries me how much my heart can take before it gives up.

Noone needs soggy, wet carpets so perhaps best not to have a portable bath 😂.

@Jynx

... I... I called him... the police guy... to... to set up the... the interview... statement... he... he wasn't there... he's going to call me... probably tomorrow...

I'm scared... I'm so so scared...

breathe right?
