Re: not coping

sounds like a good nap day for you all! @HakunaKhunz glad you feel abit better today too.

thanks @Lee82 I wish he would've just got a scan done, I understand the unnecessary testing but it might've provided some answers. probably be better by the time he agrees to one.
I haven't had a look just yet, ive been working on an assignment. almost finished now just up to the last part.
sorry your feeling pretty average today too. such a bleh feeling hey

Re: not coping

Sometimes doctors don't know what's best and they should really listen to their patients cause at the end of the day your the one going through the pain. just a little short true story about my brother...when he was a couple months old he was experiencing severe pain. He never slept, everytime he ate he would scream for hours he would throw up a lot and so mum took him to the paediatrician and everytime she went they would send her away telling her she was just a paranoid mum. She kept persisting for months and turned out he was lactose, fructose and sucrose intolerant. (Hope I spelt them right..lol)
So glad to hear you have been able to do some of your assignment @outlander. That is incredible. You truly do inspire me outlander. 💙

Re: not coping

thank you @Lee82 for sharing with me. I do hope they figure out whats wrong soon. in my family history there aren't many ailments (or the ones that are in the family have been ruled out by the tests) so I guess its abit hard to know whats wrong if there isn't much to go on either. theres no food intolerances within the family that im aware of (unless its somewhere along the family lines that I don't know about) but hes getting me to go off lactose to start with.
ive just finished my assignment, just going over it again before submitting. ill be ahead for this course then. ill try to get abit more of the content studied tonight too if I can manage it. Im suppose to start my second dementia course I think the 12th of may so if I can get ahead in this course itll work out well and less pressure to get everything done.

that's so sweet Lee, im inspired by others here too every day. Every day we all keep putting one foot in front of the other even if it seems impossible to do so and that encourages me to do the same too

Re: not coping

It's just a frustrating slow process trying to figure out what the problem is but you are strong and determined @outlander I see that.
Its seems to me that you are flying though your courses. Lol

Re: not coping

thanks @Lee82

I wouldn't say flying lol but yes getting there. just submitted the second assignment. this module is quite big and im only about quarter of the way through and still have another 3 assignments plus another module with 3 more assignments to go yet.
I don't think ill be doing much more study now though, feeling abit worn out and out of focus-starting to read but its going in one ear and out the other.

how are you going?

Re: not coping

You have had a pretty big day today so I can understand that @outlander

Feeling frustrated SP havent been working cause I am only allowed 1 and no one will listen to me when I say I need 2. So I'm afraid I'm up for another long painful night. 😞
