Good Morning Wednesday Part 2.

I thought I may as well start a new thread, as the other one isn't working. The whole site seems to be a bit *flaky^ this morning.

Good morning all from Glasgow, where it is 6°C, with bright sunshine.

I was too unwell to put yesterday. I had to call the doctor, I have postural hypotension, due to my new heart meds. I could not stop vomiting. I was so sorry for myself. 😪
The doctor was lovely, prescribed anti nausea medication and gave me an appointment for next Wednesday.
The problem is, nothing can be done for me.
I have clear arteries and perfectly working valves, but inside of my heart, the micro vessels are failing. There is no treatment.

I had a visit from the PP yesterday, he arrived with two bunches of roses. An hour later, DH arrived with identical ones. 🤣

Yesyerday, a very flustered DH went to the surgery to pick up anti nausea medication, but when I looked in the bag, there were two boxes of rheumatoid medication and no anti nausea medication. How he managed that, I do not know.
He had to do another round trip of an hour to get the correct meds.
Meanwhile, I continued to be violently sick,

DH also went for his hearing test and to pick up our new glasses.
When I asked if he needed a hearing aid, he said he only had mild hearing loss and they were trying to sell him a hearing aid, when he didn't need one. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

A day in bed is in order.

DIL's mum (next door) has had a kidney removed, DH's golf partner across the road has a massive infection and I, with the heart attack , have all been in the same hospital at the same time this week!
What are the chances of that happening?

Gingster, for a moment, I thought that was your wedding photo!

Have a pleasant day, whatever your plans and best wishes to all my fellow mountaineers.

Just a note Marydoll anti nausea tablets gave me terrible constipation. So perhaps have laxatives handy and up your hydration.
Hope you feel better soon.

A rather late morning all from West Oxfordshire.

I spent most of yesterday lying on the sofa watching various things on YouTube. All I wanted for dinner was beans on toast so that’s what OH cooked me.

I am feeling a bit better today- especially as it looks as though there really has been a blue wave in the US!

I probably won’t go to the WI coffee morning though, as I don’t want to infect everyone. I had booked a Steak Night tonight at our local restaurant, but I’ll cancel that too.

Have a good day everyone. I hope MaryD will start feeling better soon and begin to recover.

I’m just in from a successful shopping trip and thought I’d catch up with you all. Obviously I’ve found part 2, and then
found the original thread, which finished in the middle of madeleine’s post!

marydoll I’m sorry you’re so poorly and hope that the anti nausea meds work soon, that you have stopped vomiting and that you don’t have constipation!

gingster my parents married in April 1939, they reached their Golden Wedding Anniversary, but didn’t get as far as 60 years.

Have the best day you can anyone who’s found part 2!
