    A Hassle Free Way To Get Your Prescriptions

    3 August 2023

    If you take regular medication you will know the pain of having to put a repeat prescription into the Drs Surgery. Then having to wait for the prescription to be written.

Now I have found a hassle free way to get your prescriptions. If you are on regular medication, this can become tiresome every month or so. Both myself and C are on regular medication. Sadly…

    Mediterranean Diet Meal Ideas

    18 August 2022

    A few weeks ago, I shared that C had been reading up about the Mediterranean diet. As you will know she suffers with ME and Fibromyalgia.

    We are mid week through another week, and I am a little late with my weekly Diary Of A Menopausal Mum post. It has been a busy week here, with family and education with C.

She is still struggling now and is in sleep reversal which is not helping her at all. We also had her Consultant appointment, and now have her B12 injections booked, These are starting weekly…
