Oh JKS hope you feel better soon. FIL is a GP and when I had diarrhoea he told me that Immodium is fine if you just have diarrhoea but if you also have bad cramping, dizziness etc then it is best not to because your body needs to get rid of whatever bacteria is causing it and Immodium stops it doing so, hopefully yours isn't so bad because it does provide a relief!

DS having big tantrum, ignore ignore ignore.

Thank you for the respect but it dosen't feel good when you are dangling a lorry engine over dhs head and one wrong move wouldn't be good, I hate when he asks my help I get really nervous but be proud of myself for helping him

Ali your doing well today
