    It's not just tablets with me it's anything going in my body,when I went to have my covid vaccine they had to take me to a cubicle and get 2 nurses to come to see me and calm me down lol I was that scared then spent a week in bed exhausted through stress ,it's just a fear I've got x

    Hi ollioster hope I spelt that right, thank you for your thoughts and nice words, i to never wanted to take pills but had to in the end, I was taking naproxen but had to stop as they turned  my body levels upside down, nearly had to have a transfusion, iron levels went dangerously low, I'm trying as from last night to get back into relaxation, I have a cd, I used it twice last night, had a great night sleep for a change, I'm going to jump in Bath in a minute then get on the bed and put cd on, relaxation dose help with pain, hope you start feeling better soon, Pete x

    It sounds really positive that, although you had some nasty side effects, they were able to identify what the cause was @peteskinner. 

    How are you feeling these days and is there anything, in particular, that would help you to get back into relaxation? 

    It sounds really positive that you had a great night's sleep for a change. A warm bath can really help  :)
