Re: One Day at a time here

@Shaz51 oh that is so hard darlin! My mum was just telling me they've had to get a hospital winch to help dad get up to go to the bathroom and stuff, it's so hectic. I don't think people truly understand how much our mobility impacts our day to day life until they don't have it anymore hey. 

Re: One Day at a time here

Very true @Jynx 

People do not realise or understand 

My cousin has " oh you look OK " or " can't you just get a transplant " 

A transplant list is very very long and you have to wait for years 

Or can't the doctors do something- my condition has to get worse first 

 

Hugs for your parents @Jynx 🥰

 

Like my mum , whatever she ate or drank she would still lose weight 

Re: One Day at a time here

Ohhhh hugs @Shaz51 lumbar spine problems can do that. My sister is much worse than I am. Her back is bad and she doesn't have any feeling in her leg now. 

Have you had a scan? I got an MRI then I could get a care plan for physio.

@Glisten 

Is that honeycomb or rock ?

Re: One Day at a time here

Sorry for what I said  @Shaz51 you and your team are probably across it all.

My old gp hadn't done anything but my osteopath said get a scan to see what's wrong. I had other trouble that gp too so now I'm with someone else

Re: One Day at a time here

@Dimity , sending you and your sister lots of hugs 🫂 ❤️

I have had a scan and the bone density have declined over the last couple of years xx

Re: One Day at a time here

No need to be sorry my sister @Dimity 🥰

How is your eyes 👀 going xx

 

Can I ask when your birthday is? 

 

Re: One Day at a time here

@Shaz51 sounds silly but I'm not sure how good my eye is. My distance vision is better since the ops but a lot of things are murky. I can read a bright screen OK. 

I'm Sagittarius but that's all I'll say... probably won't celebrate this year. 

Re: One Day at a time here

That's OK @Dimity 

Why I am asking is because have you always had the same user name or a different username before xx

Re: One Day at a time here

Just the one username @Shaz51 . I was involved with SANE a few years before that - I bought stuff and donated - but I didn't know about the forums.
