Sorry really out of the loop here. I tried to post yesterday but my computer kept crashing.

Hope the scans go well gigs and jane. Hope it isn't too long until the results are back.

Any word on your results mas?

GP gave me antibiotics as turns out it isn't cystitis but an urinary infection I have. I had just taken one when GP phoned to say under no circumstances as they are not to be taken with anticoagulants and she gave me a different one. You couldn't make it up - everything is always complicated with me.

Really need to do some shopping online. My fridge is like Old Mother Hubbards.

Enjoy your fishing ned hope the weather is fishing friendly. Grin

KurriotsOfFire · 27/07/2012 14:35

Don't feel Blush Ned - you didn't exactly have to twist my arm Grin - I was in holiday mode anyway and I like to have a few edible treats on holiday. I think it was the large box of M and S 'more chocolate than biscuit' Biscuits in my mum's kitchen that did the damage Grin

I'm excited about your fishing trip - I hope you catch something impressive - I am sending vibes for an enormous trout or salmon Grin

gracie - you poor thing Sad - urinary infections make you feel rotten, hope the a/b's kick in quickly, and you can enjoy the weekend xx

yes surgeon is very glam - she's all designer dresses and very high heels Grin - but she's lovely, not one of those intimidatingly beautiful people you sometimes meet.

1 blood result back and definitely no blood clot on lung -so dh can relax a bit ! Have to wait a bit for the others. Not being paranoid, but would one be for seeing if there is any cancer do you think ?

graciesmall09 · 27/07/2012 14:57

Glad there isn't a clot mas. I wouldn't think the other test would be for cancer probably more a full blood picture as I think that is fairly standard when doing blood tests. could you phone back and ask them what it is for? I used to be a medical secretary so I always ask loads of questions.

Gigondas · 27/07/2012 16:20

When you say cancer , do you mean on lungs or bones? If so that would show on scan I would imagine.

Hoping you get results soon

MaryAnnSingleton · 27/07/2012 16:33

not sure what I mean really- just curious about the other bloods- but not unduly worried.

Rock cakes made and cooling in the kitchen. I may have to sample one for quality control purposes - anyone fancy joining me in a cuppa?

graciesmall09 · 27/07/2012 17:42

Cup at the ready sweetest throw over one of your rock cakes and I will be your tester.

KurriotsOfFire · 27/07/2012 17:44

I'd love a Brew sweetest, - those rock cakes smell good, - I'd better eat four or five one to see that they're not still too hot.

SweetestThing · 27/07/2012 17:57

Why they didn't pick me for the Olympic discus team is beyond me....

KurriotsOfFire · 27/07/2012 19:39

Are we all getting ready for the opening ceremony? - snacks all laid out - we have Sweetest's rock cakes, I can offer home made guacomole and hummus and veggie batons, and some shandy to drink.

SweetestThing · 27/07/2012 20:38

Mmmm guacamole!!

TV on, cup of tea and rock cakes to hand .....all ready! We are quite excited Grin

LimeJellyforBrains · 27/07/2012 20:47

Have managed to turn to on without remote control. Never done that before! complicated cable box thingy! My scan is just an ultrasound to check out excessive bleeding. Have to drink 2 pints of water an hour before it and I don't like the idea of 'trans vaginal' tmi sorry

Work settling down a bit now, made a few mistakes during the stress of the move I but the hot desking seems to have resulted in our team sitting together which is better than before :) Hope you are all enjoying the evening!

KurriotsOfFire · 27/07/2012 20:55

Ooh pear cider - that sounds nice,.

I'm getting quite excited now Smile I like all the greenery, - and with all those rural types flinging sheaves of corn around, it looks as if its going to be as barking mad as all the best opening ceremonies Grin

MAS - I also wish you a lovely relaxing hoiday xx

amberlight · 27/07/2012 21:06

Cider here too Grin Ooo, horses and geese and things!

Gigondas · 27/07/2012 21:08

I love rugby but it's not an Olympic sport and not a widely known one necessarily so why the rugby clips (ESP one of ireland scoring)

LimeJellyforBrains · 27/07/2012 21:11

Yes Gig that had us Hmm as well!

topsyturner · 27/07/2012 21:20

And what's wrong with Ireland scoring ???
Grin

Gigondas · 27/07/2012 21:33

You Are english topsy

Gigondas · 27/07/2012 21:34

Are those kids in pyjamas?

It may have been a mistake to let big gig stay up (and give her chocolate)...I am done in, she is acting like she could join our platoon in vietnam topsy

topsyturner · 27/07/2012 21:39

I am being sat upon by DD !
And she won't stop talking !
Keeps asking what everything means .
Is it bad parenting to scream "shuuuuut up" at her ???

LimeJellyforBrains · 27/07/2012 21:47

Love the championing of the NHS Grin
