Chronic kidney disease & mental health

Hey @Shaz51

Hoping this, at least, stabilises things for you

Me too @StuF 🙂

oh 10 units is not bad, mums injections are duel, it has one quick release for dinner and a slow release for the next 24 hours, she takes 20 units and her sugar has stabilized at 7-8 mmol. her doctor wanted to put her on Ozempic but she had bad side effects from it and it is really difficult to get a hold of.

Hoping it went OK with the kidney specialist today @Shaz51

Morning @Dimity

Yesterday was total information overload, spoke to 5 people over a 2 hour period

So felt very overwhelmed when I finally got back home

Now to put it all into now and the future

How did you go last week and this week

@hanami , @tyme

Hey @Shaz51 ,

How are you? I feel like I haven't checked in with you much.

I'm reading up on all your appointments and Mr Shaz's. Hope you are okay.

How's your mum going? Also, are you still bracing for wild weather where you are?

Hugs. Thinking of you.

Sorry my awesome friend @tyme

Will write later

Mr shaz has had a bad day , and I am feeling like rejected, not talking for the day is crazy

My mum is confined to a wheelchair now , no walker anymore and she is very upset

I am put on sinsil injections for my diabetes

Soo much happening , Mr shaz has a melanoma and waiting for a specialist

Is having a bowel oncology in February

I see the doctor again tomorrow and then the diabetes specialist in February

The cyclone -- fingers crossed for tomorrow

Oh @Shaz51 ,

What can we do that will be helpful? You are going through so much. I just want you to know you deserve support too.

HUGS.

I'll say my prayers for you for tomorrow.

Thank you for the hugs @tyme , @Dimity

Cooked rissoles and vegetables for dinner, Mr shaz helped me

He is still very quiet and watching TV and looking at reels on his phone

For me I have to remember he is not cranky with me but he upset with himself

But he sets the feeling for the day

Such a lot happening for you @Shaz51 .I wish your forum family could cocoon you and give you a few days respite.

Stay safe re the cyclone. It sounds as though your mum is in good hands, and mr shaz's tests are planned - his mh is bound to have some ups and downs. It sounds as though it was pretty intense for you yesterday. I trust your gp or someone is on top of it all and can help guide you.

The main thing is I hope you're as well and comfortable as possible, and that any changes are for your benefit.

I don't seem to be getting email notifications at the moment but I'm barracking for you. Take care.
