Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hello @soul, @Faith-and-Hope, @Anony18, @JasJac , @Darcy, @Determined , @Appleblossom, @NikNik, @CherryBomb@Former-Member

home again from the doctors , I have a Bladder infection --now on strong meds for 10 days

Hello @Faith-and-Hope, @Former-Member

Not sure if antibiotics are okay to use with a sick kidney.--- no they are not @utopia

The doctor gave me the wrong meds , so have to taken weaker ones

Me too @Faith-and-Hope

my next kidney checkup is in June

@Shaz51 So sorry to read of your health problems. Balancing water intake must be difficult, let alone everything else on top of it. I hope the infection clears up soon, don't need that further complication one bit.

@soul Hope you managed to stop the gremlins in your head long enough to snooze and it didn't impact your day too much.

@Faith-and-Hope Have you swum with the dolphins in say Monkey Mia or Rockingham perhaps?

@Anony18 😞 re the lack of communication. Kind of suckey.. You seem to be handling it better than I'd be think I'd be more on the wtf level by now. Sorry you are going through this.

@JasJac How are you going?

@Determined absonded after his good exam, maybe he is off celebrating 🙂

@Smc How's things with you. You're quiet not seen a lot of your butterfly lately.

@Shaz51 Bladder infections are nasty. Get well soon. Would cranberry-ish dietary additions be likely to help at all? It tends to be good as a preventative helper, but I'm not sure it's of much effect when the infection's already established.

@Former-Member Oooh, well spotted. Yeah, I've been hanging back a bit. Watching and putting in the odd comment, but not really feeling "chatty". I'm pretty flat and depressed. There's been too much going on for way too long, and it's hard feeling so worn down when I'm usually a proactive goal setter. There's no big crises in process at the moment (thankfully) but there's always the simmering background of my daughter's MI and my aged parents slowly deteriorating health. Spoke to my Mum last night, and the nurses at the aged care home she's in are having to step up her lymphodema care at the moment because her legs are infected and really red, swollen and weepy. Stuff like that makes up a constant background mental weight, and I find I have less capacity for dealing with normal daily ups and downs.

Am doing my best to look after myself. Will give a shout out to the group if I need to, but at the moment I think "quiet-ish" may be best for me. Thanks for checking up.

Thank you @Former-Member, @Former-Member, @Smc

feeling tired tonight

@Smc I get that. I totally empathise. Sometimes there is a need for quiet to process and just be, even if that just being means sorting and thinking. I'm glad you are around and just being 😛 if you don't show up here and there, I'll probably still check tho 🙂 hope that's ok.

@Faith-and-Hope I have been meaning to ask this for a few days. Did you slightly change your avatar rose perspective? Or am I imagining that?
