Re: not coping

@outlander Thank you for your beautiful message to me yesterday. I am thinking of you lots today with your specialist appointment..I really hope the way forward will become clear and it's all doable fairly easily. Sending you a huge (gentle) hug for all your massive patience and all the pain you've been in...hoping today can be the start of getting rid of all of that pain and nausea.

Re: not coping

@Appleblossom good to see you anytime

Thank you @Lee82 @Maggie @Bunniekins

Thank you @NatureLover im proud of you for knowing your limits on those 'not coping' sorts of days. i really hope your feeling a little better today, i know the limited walking might be having an effect on you during these tough times too.

the shake mix to water ratio is working out better. Most people put in some ice as well to thicken it up (and add the extra water content) but it was to thick for me so its one scoop to around 120 usually its 2 scoops to 250mls or something like that but this ratio works out better since i can only have small amounts at a time. it has to be taken within 20 mins of mixing it up. i can just managed the 120ml in the 20 minutes.



the appointment is this afternoon, ive been lucky enough to have a friend offer to come and wait in the waiting room with me as she knows how nervous and sick ive been so i feel abit better knowing that i wont have to go in there alone.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words, @outlander Yes, am a bit fragile but coping OK today. 🙂

I'm really happy a friend is coming with you to your appointment this afternoon, that's great...

I'm also happy to hear that the new ratio shakes seem to be working out, that is so positive for your nutrition 🙂

Re: not coping

fragile after such a rough day is to be expected @NatureLover
try to keep up with your self care

yeah its better then just sips of water and one meal a day. hopefully the specialist will have some more news and direction as to what to do.
