How is your day going?

Great! Still sitting the sun but dog is demanding his tea, and so that'll have to take precedence.

Will do usual 6 -10 mile dog walk at about 22:00 (usually 7ish before I get bored sitting on scooter)

@westpest i have similar issues and yes it is very difficult to do x rays apparently. Issue again apparently is there are not people available to do it. so they will not sent people to xrays unless strictly necessary and they decided about who has priority or not. i deal with hospitals and not even the hospital. i will see my neurologist and i hope this time as he is a new one i think he might do it .. Maybe try to impose it . say vyou need it. and if not . change your g p .. i am not sure because it is frustrating.. point is they do not say not.. only they do not do it. they do not send you …. i tried physio as well… and it does not work for me,. paint is awful and i am sure something is going on inside.. and my last neurologist said if something is wrong inside you wiill know. how will i know …. i can not see inside..

my last option is going to be going private. paying monthly and paying for that xray. but i can not afford it. so i do not know what to do… same issue with the bone specialist. my doctors are tying to send me there.. but they do not want to see me. they think i am complaining for nothing. it is very frustrating.. i wonder if i pay if they would refuse an xray etc.. of course not.

moring i fell asleep with air con got up this morning felt like drunk bar dry How's Sam my fifi fell down the stairs last night was so traumatic but she just got up and carried on have to watch her every move now and I forget felt so so bad hope your well

Schildpad

@Catherine21thank you very much. . I have been on therapy but it is only twice a year. Neurology even less. . Is also pain management it does not help. But yes I am trying to get better. In medication etc.. but it is hard as nothing seem to work. All the scary news etc.. I don't feel things are getting better .

I normally find DVDs people throw away . Same with books so I tend to collect them. I am watching one now. Burn after reading. Very interesting... And maybe later watch TV. Maybe trying to get my head out...

Also have to provide info on Monday for the universal credit and I hope it is enough.

I am going to places,more like volunteering.. all art related. It is only about Two o three hours a day but it helps with my mental health . Take care.

Hi @Catherine21 Sam is doing well and growing fast. He is into everything now. I am glad Fifi is ok after her fall down stairs. I bet you heart was in your mouth. I have a chest infection at the moment as cannot shake it off. On antibiotics but might need some more.

How is your hand now? has it improved at all?

Take care.

@luvpink enjoy your day and the nice weather. The sea is very therapeutic....
