    Yes and no, obviously I'm glad it's not kidney,heart or liver failure but now we're on rarer things and although dr Google isn't the best practitioner the other possible causes aren't much better, Gp is ringing later to prescribe something to try keep it in it's box.

    I've already had a bad morning and not really interested atm, I'm making it very clear after playing games for six months already I won't be attending any more appointments this year ,I have enough to deal with with the two mum has.

    I ***** hate 2025 can't wait to see the back of the horrid thing. I need routine and normality and I've not had one single month or even fortnight that's been settled since LAST Christmas.

    I'm looking at'my options for the future regarding many things including where I live who Can stay and go in my life, if I should sell my collection of films.

    Hope you're ok, speak soon 💛

    we're here for you

    I finally got an answer off the GP he says as all bloods are clear it's likely two of my medications interacting they've basically burst my capillaries causing fluid to leak into the tissue including the brain (it's not dangerous), but explains the lightheadedness part too

    he's told me to stop one of the BP pills (amlodipine) immediately stay on (bisproprolol) monitor the BP at home for a fortnight and if it climbs above 150/100 regularly he'll prescribe a replacement.

    If the swelling doesn't improve within 14 days he'll order more extensive tests but is sure it's the amlodipine

    thanks for all the support @Rachel_Scope @Strawberry1 @Anhedonia @Catherine21
