    Morning everyone, hope you all had a good nights rest.

    I woke up feeling ill again this morning and have stomach ache again, I'm meant to have a cooking lesson today with my STR worker. I'm meant to meet at sainsburys today at 1 and then come back mine and cook something but I'll see how I am. No point in cooking something I can't eat. My steroids stopped on sunday, so I might need to have some more hopefully not but we'll see.

    Hope everyone has a good day.

    @Beaver79 enjoy having your nails done.

    @Lou67 glad you enjoyed your aqua fit class. I really really miss swimming. I used to be a really good swimmer as a teen as would win medals and take part in competitions but can't do that anymore. Its been like 14 years since I have been swimming.

    whats everyone else's plans today?

    Sorry to hear you're not feeling too good @rubin16, take it easy

    @rubin16

    Iโ€™m sorry you arenโ€™t feeling to good today, I hope you start to feel better soon. Thatโ€™s such a shame you canโ€™t go to swimming especially as your such a good swimmer, I really hope you can get back to it.
    Im not a strong swimmer but I can just about swim lol but I enjoyed the aqua fit as in the water all my aches and pains ease away.
    The swimming and a bath and a hot water bottle are amazing for pain relief for me.

    Take care off yourself ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Sorry you're not feeling good @rubin16 I was feeling sorry for myself yesterday because I had tummy ache in the evening but probably not as bad as yours

    I have IBS and it's aggravated by certain foods and maybe anxiety but we can't really get to the bottom of what causes it

    Why can't you swim anymore?? It sounds like it used to be a great thing for you. I'd like to swim myself but I have like 3 different significant things stopping me do it ๐Ÿ™

    I have an ileostomy (stoma) so can't go swimming, I know apprently there is special things you can get to go swimming with however I am very self consious, I wouldn't want everyone seeing it and all my scars. Maybe if I could ever have a private pool with no one there I could haha

    Morning everyone, hope you're all doing well today! I'm quite tired today, I don't think this weather is helping.

  • 66Mustang

    Oh yeah I totally understand that @rubin16

    I am quite self conscious for different reasons and that's one of the reasons I can't go swimming. Like you if I had a private pool I would be OKโ€ฆ I know you can have adaptations done in your house if you are disabled but I don't know if a swimming pool would count??? ๐Ÿ˜‚

    I actually remember a news article from like 10 years ago about a young lady who had a stoma, she was an otherwise normal looking person. I think she was a bit of an exhibitionist to be honest because the article was about how she would go to the beach and sit there in her bikini and stuff. But I think the point of it was about how very few people actually cared and she was able to go to the beach like anyone else. I think it shows that most of the self-consciousness is in your own mind if that makes sense???

    Yeah I totally get that. Like me myself I build it up in my head to be this horrible thing that everyone is grossed out on. But in reality every relationship I have had, and friends I have told haven't cared to be honest. I think its my own self pride in a way that stops me. I also have very very bad RSD so maybe that is another reason why as well.

    @rubin16 I'm just wondering but when you say "RSD" is that short for rejection sensitivity or is that something else?
