How is your day going?

Hahaha you saying that made me panic and double check it is actually friday, I've been caught out before! 😅

I have all the snacks, too many of the snacks and now I can't choose (I know, it's a good problem to have but blehhhh)

Just been to the Dr's

Blood tests back

All normal so not gout

She's pretty certain it's osteoarthritis, but I need xray to confirm

Referral to physiotherapy, letter will come in the post

Because I've been finding blood on loo paper, she did a rectal exam. No lumps or bumps, found blood in my ansus

It's either the apaxiban or a small tear or fissure

Wrote prescription for cream for bum and pain gel for knee

Unfortunately she's sent it to the wrong pharmacy, so it's now coming in the post

Might not get them til Tues

I'm. To do a stool sample too

Xray is 6 Oct

No idea about physio or cardiology appointment s

I'm. Alive

Still got pain in the knee

@Katiedimelow20 the only way it is going to be to tell him everything as if your mum is there or tell the psychologist if he could get your mum out so you could talk to him in private.. if not possible get your back facing your mother and talk to the phycologist as if your mother is not there. I think psychologist thinks you want your mother there when you don't. I hope it makes sense. Your mother has to know visits to the psychologist is a private matter. But I know . I had a controlling mother. She is long time gone. But she was controlling..

you are going to need to be very brave and say to her no you stay outside or just tell your doctor you do not want her inside … otherwise you will have to say what you think even if she is there. she needs to know that you do not need her there. if she is there made her uncomfortable and i mean very uncomfortable. it is simply not fair. you have zero privacy and that is really unfair.
