Health

I am no better with the pain and discomfort all down my left side. Probably wont really get any better until I see Neurology in January, unless it does dramatically disappear.
Last night, I was lying in bed and found a pea sized lump in my right breast. Saw our GP this morning and she could feel it as well. Now, another urgent appointment to the breast clinic. One day I might feel ok for once.
Dad
Last Thursday, I found out my Dad had been hiding a pain in his chest. After speaking to the surgery we rang 111. They sent an ambulance out, who took him to hospital. He came home yesterday with numerous medications and follow up appointment in a couple of weeks time. Not sure what is going on, but they have put him on medication to stop him having a major stroke which he was heading for, so something good has come out of this.

I am so sorry you had a difficult week, mine wasn’t easy either. I am unable to sleep, I am not sure why. I think I might need to meditate more. I hope your dad feels better.
I am sorry you had a bad week as well, my dad was taken back into hospital this morning. Just waiting to hear what is going on

I”m sorry to hear about your dad. I hope he learned his lesson about hiding symptoms, and I hope he feels better soon!
Thank you, I think he has and he got a lecture in the car today when popping out not to hide anything in future and I will be keeping a closer eye on him
