Mental health

Hi @eeL I have a large hiatus hernia and have bad acid reflux, since last July when I had my gall bladder out I also now have bile reflux as well and a cough. This means I have to take large doses of Proton pump inhibitors which unfortunately are now starting to affect my sodium and magnesium levels. My life style cannot be changed any further as I do not drink, smoke nor am I overweight (underweight if anything) also do not eat fried or spicy food or drink coffee any more. Just tea but Consultant has said I need to try decaf tea. I only have low fat cheese and I am very careful what I eat as also have Ulcerative colitis. I also have routine Liver function blood tests as this was affected by a blocked bile duct and the gall bladder. This has to be monitored blocked bile duct can happen again.

I am not feeling too bad thanks just get very tired. I agree we are better off knowing so can be sorted sooner.

Thank you for asking. I am sorry your day has not been the best, Take care.

hey, not too bad thanks 🌹 glad your phone call wasn't too bad

I miss vikki and I'm wondering how she's coping without this space to offload and engage with her friends.

It must be possible to return under a new user name, in time. I don't use other social media and would feel very isolated without this forum.

I miss her immensely too, It just feels different now

I can't help imagining how she must feel after investing so much of herself. So smart and kind. One in a million.

aww that's lovely, Pippa is my best friend too.
