Old fashioned pick me up

Here are some to cheer you up x

Thank you for your lovely replies, I can’t go out for a drive as it’s to difficult to get to the car
Quokka I don’t mind you piggybacking at all 😂 the more we can help each other the better

I can only sympathize with your enforced housebound situation Lesley60. I had a knee op many years ago and had it not been for my DDs (before babies) taking me out in the car for a change of scenery, I think I’d have gone mad!
I hope you can get out and about when you’re well enough. X

Good morning everyone, I have been through the mill recently with broken foot and various other health issues, and I’m just wondering if any of you ladies know of a good old fashioned tonic.

Poor you. I’m in a similar position. Winter drawing on doesn’t help either does it?

I’ll read replies with interest if you don’t mind me piggybacking on your thread

While I can see you are asking about medication/tonics, don’t forget the therapeutic effects of getting out in the fresh air (if you can, as I see you’ve had a foot problem). You’ll get vitD and outdoor exercise is often suggested to those feeling a bit ‘down’. I know several GNs report on Health Walks.
Hope you feel better soon.

I would like nothing better than to go out for a walk in this crisp sunshine, but unfortunately I have to stay off my foot for three months as I had an ankle fusion a couple of days ago

Bio Strath is our family go-to.

Metatone from the local pharmacy helped my mum recover from an illness - it's a blend of iron and vitamins. We put it in fruit squash for her, but I quite like the taste of it by itself.

Hope you are feeling better soon.
