The other day I got to thinking about you guys and how your kind words and good advice helped me out loads a few months back. Basically I was heavily pregnant, had just been through a lft test and I...
Hello! And in answer to Ziffler's question no my brothers name isn't Michael and I've never known him to wear green speedos lol....
I don't think it would be Connie as I have a few more occasions coming up where I'm going to have to face it and I feel that I need to do it but not right now. We have family who live in Australia...
David I do see where you are coming from but for some people its really difficult. My ex boyfriends mother hadnt touched a drink in something like 15 years yet she still found herself leaving a room...
Ziffle I wonder had your wife not been there would there have been a different outcome for you that time? I think one day will be tough for me but 2? I dunno I think that was pretty impressive :-)...
Thanks but I think I made my email address unavailable from the time I registered as I just checked there and no its not showing. Things have definitely been relaxed a lot since I got the results. We...
Hi everyone I just came back cos I noticed a few replies on here since my last post. My thing with alcohol is and always has been a weekend thing, I never even think of it during the week but come...
Thanks everybody I can't believe I had put this off for so long without getting a check up. My fiancé has just come back from work and already there is a real buzz around the place :-) tomorrow I'm...
I woke up this morning and began to worry again. On Friday the nurse told me my result won't be back until Wednesday so this morning I thought ok I will call the doctor just to see if by chance the...
I think your congress need to come over here and work full time jobs on minimum wage for six months and see how long it takes before their resentment of the British government kicks in. It wouldn't...
Can they really take your job away from you given that they have full knowledge of the situation you and your family are in? I don't know anything about this but I think you could look into the...
Hi I can't help much as I have no knowledge of the disease and I am currently awaiting the results of my own liver function test so I don't know what to say to reassure you only that I feel you...
Sue not due, silly auto correct I am sorry about that. I won a lovely big cheesecake yesterday from a catering company for my mother so that lifted my spirits a bit and hers too! She's collecting it...
Me and my fiancé have been talking about going to church together. We were both born into the same religion but both of us stopped going years ago before we met each other. We need to get a car first...
When you guys say pants I automatically thought "Knickers were not allowed under skirts?" Lol then I realised!...
At least they are just wearing pyjama bottoms, here they come out with their slippers and dressing gowns on, the lot! If I had a £1 for every one that I have seen walk up the street with their...
No matter who we elect over here in the UK they still love to give easy money and expensive housing to the lazy folk. I'm sorry to hear that your daughter for whatever reason had not lived with you...
:-)...
Connie I think that's different entirely, I think if you have worked hard and paid into society over the years then of course you should be looked after by the government should you need it. The...
Lol thanks for the advice but sadly I don't even have a tyre pump so if I get a flat tyre I am soooo screwed! So I did the ten mile round trip to the docs and back and have been feeling so tired ever...
I just had my LFT blood test. I won't get the results for a few days they told me so I've got a bit of a wait but I have to say I'm glad I went today and I'm feeling a bit more relieved that I've...
Well I'm being tested for liver function today, I've been out of work for around a year now but I've only claimed benefit for 26 weeks as that was all they would allow me. I have worked full time...
Ah ok there's no online service between by doctor and his patients. I guess I'll just have to ask the nurse tomorrow so it will likely be Monday or Tuesday when I find out :-(...
Hello Alysmom. That is an interesting job and its something I could look into but as I live in the UK the rules for these companies might be different and is probably covered by call centres but yeah...
:-) I still wouldn't mind doing some work from home. We are finding it a little tough surviving off one income and as I am and will be at home most of the day now and when baby arrives it would be a...
You guys the thought has just struck me that in a few weeks I will be looking after my baby and that should certainly help keep me occupied and make me motivate myself :-) hope to have had a few...
Thanks everybody I've woken up with a bit more confidence today than what I did yesterday. I also slept a bit better last night which can only be a good thing. Barbara I get what you are saying about...
Its ok :-) I went for a really long bike ride I just got back and it has really helped. I am not depressed because of the baby's existence its just that everything has gone downhill since we found...
I understand what you are saying but it doesn't change the way that I feel inside. All sorts of thoughts and feelings are going through me and being pregnant I believe has made this a lot lot worse....
Just spoke to the midwife, hepatitis B result came back negative :-) Right looks like yellowness on my face is getting a bit worse though. During a conversation with my mum she mentioned that I had...
Im so depressed right now I fear the worst, I've never been as worried about anything in my life as I have about all this. Its really getting me down. I have it in my head that I'm going to get a...
I found the following statement on a web page and I wondered if this is just some made up fact or if there is evidence of a study to support this claim? I thought its a bit misleading really as they...
:-( anyway I didn't pluck up the courage to call her today :-( I'm so upset with myself for that. Well tomorrow is a new day and I have to get motivated....
Huh?...
Just calling her to clarify what the blood tests were for and results were thats it really. Yeah having a midwife is strange even to me as I never needed one before lol. Haven't made it out of bed...
Well I'm calling the midwife later to ask about my blood tests and although I went to bed early last night I hardly slept so I'm really tired right now. I am trying my best not to worry but I'm sure...
Hi Pam, I can't offer much advice sorry but what I want to say is perhaps you both could watch what you eat together? If you are both having to lose weight this has the possibility of really in...
True but that's what it had said in the newspaper. Its probable that the docs sent them away and told them to come back in a few weeks or months. They probably did check their hands and arms etc to...
Hello Roy, I just want to say Good luck and there are a lot of people around who can help you if you need it :-) I stopped drinking in April and although I have yet to get tested I am so glad I...
Yeah I think everyone should be tested come to think of it. Women are told to come for a smear test every three years so why can't they do blood tests at the same time, and also bring men in for...
Then I will be two years out? I was born '77 :-( I'm going to ask anyway because if I don't ill never know for sure. I wouldn't think I'm high risk though someone i shared a house with at one point...
I don't mean do it herself, but take the blood and send it for analysis :-) I don't make sense sometimes when I read back what I have written....
Yeah David that is what I was saying, on NHS website they state that 1 test is for hepatitis b but they don't routinely test for hepatitis c. I'm calling my midwife on Monday to ask her if she could...
Just been reading up on NHS website and found this http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/pages/antenatal-care-checks-tests.aspx It says ill have been offered a test for hepatitis B but not...
Good morning everyone :-) and hi David. To my knowledge I've never been tested for any hepatitis. Hep93 I am only ever tired a lot when I have had a hard day at work, having my period or lately but...
Connie the actual sight of them does not disturb me its the fact I've been reading they are commonly linked to liver disease, that's the disturbing part, had they been linked to something simple it...
Hi thanks I will take a look at your link in a little while. Hmm yeah maybe its a weight thing and I never thought of that. I've had these for about 5 or 6 years and from before and throughout that...
Its definitely spider Angioma and for years its been very prominent on my left ankle, but ive only noticed the one on my right ankle a few weeks ago. There's 4 on that ankle with the biggest one...
Well I called my doctor and he can't see me until next Thursday :-( so I have to wait almost a week :-( and the next day i have my midwive's appointment. I'm going to try and keep positive though and...
Good morning everyone and thanks for all your replies. I've had an uneasy night again, tired but very agitated. I'm not working at present and that doesn't help stress levels either so I've come back...
