Re: not coping

We are all here for you lil Sis @outlander. You don't have to go through any of this alone.

I've deferred uni for a semester so I can be here online a little more now. And I've pulled back on some other things as well. I'm just not coping with the level of fatigue that I have.

Yesterday with mum was good. Because it was so hot we opted to go to a museum instead.

But I'm annoyed with her today. She often picks such inappropriate moments to bring things up. I just got a text saying if I could sort out what money owing to her when I can would be good. Subtle as a sledgehammer! There's a very long story behind it all, but she didn't need to choose today.

I've had a very long, full on day. I had a liver specialist appt this morning. I got the times confused with my plastics appt tommorow morning so I was late this morning. Instead of taking the bus, I had to get an uber.

Then I had to have bloods taken for the next liver appt in a month's time. Lots of vials lol! 6 vials!

I then walked down to the train, and went to my dietician appt.

My support worker kindly picked me up from there where I had another appointment near home. Thankfully we had time for a coffee and chat.

I had a cortisone injection in my right hip after our coffee. So I'm now resting as I've been told to do.

I probably need a cortisone injection in my left hip, but waiting to see the effect on the right first.

Are you sorry you asked how I was lol?! I have A LOT going on.

Hi @Shaz51👋💕💕💕💕I always love seeing you around.

Re: not coping

Lol @Sans911 but no i neber regret asking about you. I want know how you are.

Sounds like a very full on day but im glad your support worket was around.

What happened to your car- you normally drive to your appts rathet then catch an uber/other transport

Was the dietician helpful?
Do you have to take it easy for a few days after those injections?

Sorry about your studies though, maybe next year you can start up again but theres been lots of stuff thrown at you to have to contend with.
That was quite abrubt of your mum too, some people arent overly sensitive to the way they approach things

Re: not coping

My car is playing up again @outlander. I can still drive it through. Because my support worker was picking me from the dietician, I didn't need to drive. And most of the hospital outpatients appts tend to have a decent wait despite having a scheduled time. My aim was to get a bus to the outpatients appt, train to the dietician and then be picked up. But I was late for my outpatients appt. That's why I needed uber.

Yes, the dietician is helpful. I have weekly appts for a while. She's got a bit of a different approach, which I like. But she does challenge my thinking around food, etc.

Yep, have to take it easy for at least 24 hours, but if I can rest more than that is better to give the injection time to work.

Tommorow is going to be tricky getting around too. I have a number of appts again. I'm still strategising about how to do it all.

Evening @Eve7 😊👋💕💕💕

Re: not coping

Oh that makes sense re the transport @Sans911

Your good at planning and strategising so i have faith youll work out how to do it all! Hopefully you can rest moreover the next coming days to give the cortisone time to work.

Im glad the dietician is helpful. Weekly sessions sound like abit though but good to have someone your accountable to and who is also supportive
Of you while your adjusting to all the changes that need to be made

@Sans911 Just wanted to say that it is great to read your resilience to the days events. It sounds like big day has been had and you're charging forward with the next set of challenges of tomorrow.

Can't wait to read how it all goes for you and thanks for sharing.
