What a beautiful plant @Shaz51! Will it be a hanging plant or go in the garden?

@Shaz51 It’s beautiful and I love hanging plants! I hope you are sitting down or laying down at the moment and letting yourself rest. I’m trying to convince myself to shower. Really need one lol! 😂

Hi @Shaz51 I am sorry to hear you are having a lot of aches and pains lately. I hope you are able to get the bottom of it and get some relief. What plant did Mr Shaz buy you?

This is the new plant 🪴
My mind is going over and over things that might be causing all the aches and pains

Sorry @Shaz51 I see you already posted it before, I just got home from volunteering.
Then I had an appointment that was pretty difficult.
So was trying to catch up on tags and didn't read the rest of the thread just the post you tagged me in.
Some medications can cause bone pain. When are you seeing kidney specialist?
Could power washing the outside of your house caused soem aches or was that only Mr Shaz doing that?

I hope you can get some answers from kidney specialist @Shaz51 Thinks have certainly not been going well for you lately.
Did you have a bone scan where they take a scan, then inject you and wait for a while and then re-scan?
Yeah my appointment was about some childhood trauma that I was disclosing to an organisation, anyhow it's over now
