It is not!
So now we wait. Probably for another seroma to develop, and then back again XD
They kept apologising and it's like, lol, it's not your fault! It's my body trying to be helpful by being unhelpful.

Only about 15 mins now!
Rush hour is not the time to be travelling!
But the crutch gives me some advantages

tamobhuuta 23-10-2024 06:52 PM

I painted a little canvas.

Sorry you've got to take antibiotics Cacoethes.

I hope you enjoyed your tea lr.

How was your day osc?

one_step_closer 23-10-2024 06:55 PM

If I had crutches I think I might be tempted to poke people with them.

Hope you get home and settled soon and fingers crossed no more frequent trips to London!

What did you paint on your canvas, Tamo?

I have mostly been singing Westlife songs to my cat all day because a Westlife post came up in my Fb memories.

tamobhuuta 23-10-2024 06:57 PM

Sort of a self portrait? But how I feel not how I look?

one_step_closer 23-10-2024 06:58 PM

Sounds interesting. Are you happy with how it turned out?

Cacoethes 23-10-2024 07:01 PM

Thanks guys! Only a few mins from my stop! Then L is picking me up.

That sounds interesting tamo!
I used to draw stuff like that

long road 23-10-2024 07:02 PM

Antibiotics twins Beckie! XD Probably the worst kind of twins yet... I hope you don't get too many side effects. I imagine it's because collections of fluid can get infected.

I think sometimes people say sorry as an empathy thing rather than an admission of fault. That and it's probably polite to apologise for medical complications even if it isn't a negligence thing! XD

I did enjoy my cup of tea it was Yorkshire tea malty biscuit brew.

I hope crookshanks appreciated his free concert Lindsay!

Cacoethes 23-10-2024 07:55 PM

Which ones are you on jen? XD
Yeah they can apparently. And turn into fibrosis if I don't get them drained. All fun and games! No one tells you this **** XD
Well, they probably did and I zoned out/skim read the consent forms....

True!

That tea sounds yummy!

long road 23-10-2024 08:10 PM

Amoxicillin. My nurse asked me which I preferred out of amoxicillin and Doxycycline. Wish neither was an option, still nice to be offered a choice? XD Doxycycline and my digestive system were not friends last time I took it.

I highly recommend the biscuit tea. It tastes like you dipped a malted milk biscuit in the tea but with no soggy crumbs at the bottom.

Cacoethes 23-10-2024 08:56 PM

I'm on co-amoxiclav. So not fully antibiotics twins!
Nice she gave you the option

Nice!

long road 23-10-2024 08:58 PM

Fraternal antibiotics twin rather than identical XD

tamobhuuta 23-10-2024 09:13 PM

That tea sounds yum lr!

long road 23-10-2024 09:41 PM

It is awesome. I have it quite regularly you can get it in Sainsburys and Tesco.

I haven't been brave enough to try Yorkshire Tea Jam on Toast tea though...

not_so_insig 23-10-2024 09:57 PM

My local tesco doesn't do the biscuits or jam tea :-( .

long road 23-10-2024 10:31 PM

That is sad times. The big one I order my click and collect from does. But before they stocked it I would order it on Amazon.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 03:01 AM

Morning everyone

not_so_insig 24-10-2024 06:37 AM

Morning Beckie.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 06:49 AM

Hey dawn
How are you?

not_so_insig 24-10-2024 06:53 AM

Bored. I seem to be awake horrendously early having had not much sleep. I want to do stuff but at the same time it's too early because I will disturb the neighbours. Especially as I will be banging and clanging.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 06:55 AM

Yeah I get that. It is boring being awake early

not_so_insig 24-10-2024 06:59 AM

How come you're awake now? Couldn't you sleep either?

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 07:39 AM

Nah. Woke up at about 2:30 I think? Somewhere around then. Just been happening lately for some reason!

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 09:08 AM

Morning guys.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 09:16 AM

Morning tamo
How are you?

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 09:49 AM

I'm alright. Didn't sleep well but better than you two! What are you up to today?

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 09:53 AM

Can you have a nap today?

I'm just at home today. Boring!
Housing person has been and has to refer the issue to someone else because we have a wet room. Annoying! But he's gonna put the request as urgent because we have a hole in the ceiling where the shower leaked through XD
Expecting a call from CC and will probably call hairdresser to book an appointment.

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 09:58 AM

I'm glad it's urgent! I hope your calls are satisfactory.

I'm sure I can find time for a nap, but maybe I should power through?

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 10:19 AM

Thanks!
Booked hairdresser appointment
Now just cc phone call. IF she calls :eyeroll:
Just showered

See how you feel

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 10:23 AM

Your cc sounds quite diligent, fingers crossed.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 10:29 AM

She is....if/when she calls XD
She appears to forget a lot, or things come up.
Which is annoying. But I get it, **** happens. I would imagine she had to do the same to other people when I was unwell last time and her and the dr came out within 30 mins of me calling. So I really don't mind that much.

long road 24-10-2024 10:35 AM

Morning everyone!

I have been awake a while. Got a better sleep last night though 8 hours with only one wake up. And asthma seems a bit better today but still full of cold/ chest infection so we shall see how it goes.

If your CC hasn't called by lunchtime could you ring the office Beckie?

Naps are good Tamo. As long as napping doesn't stop you sleeping at night

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 10:38 AM

Glad you slept better jen!
Hope the asthma behaves itself today!

I could do. She does usually tend to call a bit later than that though. Like 1-2pm.

long road 24-10-2024 11:00 AM

Still tired so going to make a coffee XD

Well you could call if she hasn't called by 2:30pm? Then there are still a couple of hours before the end of the day for her to call you but you have given her time to call?

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 11:04 AM

Good plan!
Normal coffee or fancy coffee?

Yeah I'll probably do that. She's not in tomorrow so probably best. Though I see my psych on Monday anyway

long road 24-10-2024 11:21 AM

My normal coffee is fancy coffee these days! It's easy enough to make and tastes so much better!

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 11:40 AM

Mum brought me Costa :) and I was glad to have her in ward rounds.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 11:50 AM

Ooh get you and your normal fancy coffee jen :tongue2:
I am rather jealous!

How did it go tamo?

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 12:01 PM

It was ok. Mum wasn't pleased. See Serious for further!

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 12:07 PM

Just saw. Very odd of the dr!

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 12:11 PM

Yes, my mum wasn't impressed...

one_step_closer 24-10-2024 12:12 PM

Afternoon everyone.

Lots going on already, I have read!

Hope you all have successful days.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 12:13 PM

Hey lindsay!
How are you?

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 12:16 PM

Hi osc, how are you?

one_step_closer 24-10-2024 12:30 PM

I'm having a bit of a difficult time but will just get on with it.

Anyone having anything nice for lunch?

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 12:34 PM

Could you try and call duty maybe?

one_step_closer 24-10-2024 12:35 PM

My CPN would prefer me to call him if he's working. I struggle to phone Duty too.

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 12:42 PM

I get the struggle, but there's no harm in a least trying right? Might be worth it!

Aeropress for brewing coffee and milk frother machine for hot frothy milk. To be fair I only have 1 or 2 coffees a day rest of the time I drink tea.

Hope you can manage to call Lindsay. You deserve support.

Glad you had your Mum there for rounds Tamo

I am about to attempt nap as did stuff for a bit and it has made me more tired. Bit short of breath though so will see how I go.

tamobhuuta 24-10-2024 12:45 PM

You don't have to get on with it alone!

Cacoethes 24-10-2024 01:32 PM

Sounds awesome jen!
Hope you manage to nap!

I have accidentally done the washing up, cleaned kitchen, folded washing, put more washing on, swept living room, taken bins out and put out the bins for tomorrow...
