    Huge thank you

    I just wanted to thank people on this forum. 2 weeks ago I was loosing the will to do anything.

    things you lovely lot have given me:

    Emotional support. This encouraged me to take care of myself. I spoke with g.p and he had received a letter from my neurologist who suspected emotional liability. So I've started citalopram.

    dehydration advice- Its made a massive difference as i now do not have the thick mucus issue.

    Revitive. Was hesitant re the £330 price tag but its basically 2 weeks pip money.
    I've used it for 4 days and its amazing re reducing my badly swollen feet.

    I pick my powerchair up today. I'm embracing the freedom & comfort it will give me.

    I had stopped eating and was simply not taking care of myself. I have been let down re some of the departments involved in my care but, I'm letting go of that negativity. It just drags me down.

    Without the forum I would have slipped into a dark place. Now I feel the sun is shining.

          shelly21 This horrible illness takes so much, but it can't take the inner you, and clearly chooses the most courageous, and that is what you are xx

                        How lovely to see such a positive post with lots of improvements 😀. It is a real roller-coaster but great that you are in a better place and taking care of yourself.

                        You are always supporting others and its great to see everyone rally round to offer advice, suggestions or just listen and sympathise when times are hard and celebrate the good times! Let's hope the sun shines on and on 🌞🌞🌞 x
