Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

Well she sounded open to the possibility of a 2nd Date @Shaz51 She even said "we should catch up again".

So I think it's up to me now, to contact & suggest it in a week or two.

People rarely follow me up, so that's why I say that I think it's up to me (next).

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Your company is appreciated @Shaz51 .. thankyou. Still waiting for your 2 latest pictures to come through. Yes very true @Shaz51 , so many different things have an affect on other things, as do many of the medications. Have the same thing with hubby and all his complicated mix of diagnoses and associated medications. All the specialists put their apparent lack of solutions down to "its a very complex case". Ummm yeah, I know that. Anyway all you can do is get as much information as you can, to be well armed with information when something goes awry. Unfortunately as you have a number of different specialists involved (same as my hubby ... eg neurologist, oncologist, endocrinologist, psychiatrist, nephrologist ... just to name a few) they dont always consult with other competing issues. Thus, its either a great GP or yourself, who has to put it all together.

Hey @Adge ... that sounds promising. Really happy for you that the date seemed to go well. A compatible sense of humour is a huge plus.

ye I took a laxative last night , and i read today that i should of went to the GP about it as I might of taken the wrong kind of laxatives

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Shaz51 .. the first pic has come through, the cute baby meerkat. Gorgeous baby he is too.

Oh okay ... my hubby is on quite doses of laxatives every day. Parkinsons disease causes bad constipation, as does the steriod medications he is on for his encephalitis and adrenal failure (auto immune disorders). Its a big problem for him.
