Checking In

I thought I would start a thread for myself and other members to check in. I thought also needed a thread for myself after being in hospital recently too. Hope its helpful for others too.

I had not so bad today, my anxiety levels are less and feeling a bit more energentic which I think is good.To me that is a good sign. I have start to put my recovery plan in to action from my hospital admission. Tomorrow I think my staffy dog will be needing surgery, she had had another mast cell tumour. I truly feel for her, she has been fighting this cancer for almost four years, she is so strong and courgeous.

This week I have a specialist appointment twice and seeing my other Doctor once this week. I think with me and Kira I am going to have a busy week.

Re: Checking In

If you knew how I 'freaked out' at the zoo yesterday @oceangirl then I could explain how I feel. I thought being home would make it better but I think the relief of being in my 'safe place' has allowed all the feelings to come to the surface. Last night was really sh*t and it feels like the good times that I had while I was away were masking how I was still feeling underneath. I really struggled at times to get through but I tried really hard to push myself to do things. I'll be ok - just need to get to my GP appointment tomorrow and go from there.

Re: Checking In

@oceangirl Hi sis. I hope you are feeling better today I am struggling and don't want to do anything atm. I don't even want to go out to see my GP today - I don't want to have to talk as I don't have the energy. It's later today so I'll try to get there but atm I don't have the energy to do anything.

Re: Checking In

@Zoe7 Unfortunately I am not better- no zoo for me today- I didn't want the others to get sick too. I hope its not like my last cold/sinus infection- it took me weeks to recovery. Trouble is in bed with me- she wouldn't let me out of bed before and then when I got out the other side she decided she wanted to do her usual game of throwing pillows up in the air.

I'm in hospital, I am pretty sick. I will be here for a few days. I think tonight I will try and rest. Hopefully I will only have the IV overnight.
