GCSEs 2018 (15) The Reckoning

Really good wishes x hope you get some clarity and reassurance soon

He was very fit. Went running every night etc.

But when he was a teen (& also in his 30’s for a short while) he had an ED so who knows what damage that may have caused.

What I do know is the support this thread has given is amazing.

In one way it does in that the mri seems to indicate no lasting effects. On the other hand what on Earth is going on? Dr says dh is very young to be experiencing this.

Terf - we were going to go to r & j but Ds has a rehearsal he can’t miss.

Nearest a & e about 15mins by car (up to 30 if traffic)

But yes that’s what walk in we’re trying to say. He should have called 999

Dr chased MRI & it’s clear. He wants to refer to neurologist after he’s seen stroke clinic consultant.

They’ve changed his statins.

Thinking of you Alexander, it must be very scary for both of you

DD (Y9) is going to Borneo next Easter. She has put some of her own money towards the trip and is planning to spend the summer holiday making some crafts (she is very good at this) to sell at the school fair in November.

Hope he recovers very soon AlexanderHamilton

I don’t get notifications of tags either.

Dh has an email from the hospital today. He has an appointment the week after next. Unfortunately that means we will have to cancel our holiday.

But then this morning he felt really ill , dizzy, headache & his face went numb & dropped so he took a taxi to the walk in centre. They told him off & said he should have gone to a & e as he would lose vital time if it developed into a full one. It resolved fairly quickly though.

I’m just waiting for him to come out of the GP now (walk in sent him)

Thanks for the thread mmzz. I don't know why tagging me doesn't work. It should according to my settings. And I never get a copy of the round-up either.

In other news... Strange wet stuff falls from sky!

Hi everyone. DS is on his last day of work experience and has been loving it thankfully. Off on holiday next week which will take us through to the end of July. Trying to think of things to do to distract ourselves until 23rd! Then DS is off to Reading Festival to (hopefully) celebrate exam results.

thanks for the tag.
dd enjoying life just "hanging" with her mates at the moment, in between a few work shifts.

Do you think we are going for a record for the longest thread on MN

Not by a long chalk! The Archers is on Thread 90. You'll need to get through to your GC's GCSEs to beat that!

I've gone all unreasonably warm and fuzzy at being tagged in so we can continue to chat!

Not much to report here. DD is looking relaxed and freckly, has done several auditions for shows at the various 6th forms (not sure how that casting method works, as they won't know who's coming), a lot of cooking, a lot of gardening (it needs it!) and is popping off to stay with an auntie in Devon all next week. The prom went well - she and all her oddball friends travelled together, in remarkably colour-coordinated dresses, and looked lovely.

Thanks mmzz and hugs and for sost and alexander

Finally got round to booking tix for live RSC screening of R+J next week. Persuaded DS2 to come too since he'll be starting on the play in Y10 in September. We might watch the Leonardo film version over the weekend.

DS1 starts lifeguard training on Sunday - 6 days of 8am starts (has to get up at 6am for the train) should liven him up a bit!!

Jealous of the Borneo adventures. DS was going to go there for school world challenge type trip but not enough interest so it was shelved. Am now quite glad as the stress of the trip plus fundraising plus GCSEs might have finished me off

I've been doing buggerall except gym/swim and lying around in the garden. Roll on summer hols!
DS got holiday work details today from his Sixth form - not much except a sheet of maths, and a note to say they would have a maths exam the first day back!

Judging from the end of first year Uni thread I'm on, where I think we all started out somewhere around GCSE run up, this thread might carry on longer than you think!

Found you. DS is away on a geek trip with DH, visiting museums, mines and railways, so I've had a bit of a break from his relentless boredom.

Thankyou mmzz for the new thread and for tagging everybody!

Kick I'm so jealous, Borneo is too of my list of places I want to visit! Hope you're having an amazing time!
Same to everyone else already on holiday.

We go away next Thursday, I can't wait!
Before that DD is doing another week of working with pre school children with additional needs - long, hard days and she's shattered but loving it. She has so much patience l, I don't think I could do it.

Well DD has just popped home with a mate and a portion of chips. Ncs and school induction have finished for the week, but she has now gone to her old junior school to tell some of the y6 about a club she helps run at secondary. She is quite excited about going back to juniors!

Thanks for the tag! DD had her prom Wednesday night, I've not really heard anything about it as she is also on ncs residential - DH picked her and friends up from prom and dropped them off at post prom sleepover, then she went straight back to ncs the following morning! Should see her this afternoon!
