Re: not coping

Nah hon @outlander Think I will be in bed soon anyway.

Sorry to hear you are not enjoying the course. I hope it gets a little better as the time goes on.

Seeing your specialists might give you some answers hon so hoping too that you can get in to see them soon. At least things are starting to open up a bit.

Re: not coping

yeah im not really into disability @Snowie I like supporting staff though and doing behind the scenes things. I thought I wouldn't but I actually prefer it.
theres a 4 week wait atm but im trying to get in earlier cause ive already seen my gp twice for stomach pains but no relief from anything ive tried so far so need another review.

Do you have any plans for tomorrow?

Re: not coping

@outlander 💖

Thanks , I'm still in pain, and still got Drs working on solutions. I am getting better at using a walking stick though.

I am starting to get used to the MH ward. Been here 5 days now. They have started me on a new medication to help with my nightmares. Unlike the other one I have tried, this one does not lower my blood pressure. They are also looking to change my current ADs to a mote effective or better fit option for me.

I was planning on going home this Friday, but the head psychiatrist is recommending I stay a while longer.

At least I am still having physio and rehab each day, plus hydrotherapy, for my back surgery. Since I cannot drive for another 3 weeks, its pretty convenient still being here in hospital.

Re: not coping

@Emelia8 I’m really glad that you are getting some much needed TLC and really please that you are agreeing to spending more time in there. Think perhaps this has been needed for a while but you have had other things to deal with and your own health, both physical and mental have always come last. Now is the time to focus on you, give you back some quality of life. I’m hopefully that things are on the up for you my friend.

i hope the new meds are a good fix for me. My nightmare meds drop my blood pressure too, but it’s not too bad at the moment, just need to keep my fluids up.

please take care of you 💕🤗
