Thank you @NatureLover for you reassurance. But I am feeling very precarious here at present, especially after a response I got from a manager on a forum feedback thread earlier today. I fear I am not wanted here and my time here is very limited. It does not help my anxiety at all. BP is very low again, and pulse high. Anxiety over a number of things, and some hyperventilation is causing that I suspect. I know what I need to do to get it under control, but its hard. Are you okay NL ... I know none of this is easy for you either?
Will respond to your posts shortly @Lee71 ... just busy with post dinner stuff.
