Aches and pains in my arms. Of course its my heart 

Bloated stomach and slight queasiness of course is cancer.

My mind goes into over drive and then I get ratty with everyone. I try not to moan because I would be a right pain in the a**e. It would be a new moan every day and I just dont want to ask my OH to listen. He is not a particularly sympathetic man anyway and this would drive him mad.

Although I would listen to him ....

Hi catlady
I did a search as I thought that I remembered a thread on this and I did - yours!

Maybe you didn't see all the replies? They sound encouraging.

Catlady, no googling 

I have let the side down too 

New Years Resolution, no googling of any ache or pain. Chat on here and/or go to the gp if worried.

If in doubt about any information you see on GOOGLE go then to Bad Science web-site  - it's surprising how your mind can be relieved by reading correct and substantiated information

I have just downloaded the "Bad Science" book to my Kindle for £1.99p, looking forward to reading it

The point I try to make is that reading the source of funding for each article is important  - i.e. sugar is good for you, of course it is: according to the British Sugar Corporation [this was in the 1970s  ].  Drink 2 litres of water, according to the bottled water companies

My grown up children bought me a Kindle for Crimbo with wifi connection haven't got a clue on how to use it my excuse is the meno has pickled my brain my son said read the instruction manual told him he could as i couldn't be a***d have enough probs with a computer.

[CLKD]

That's sad Leony - and also that your son didn't offer to set it up for you 

[leony]

He has set it up now and downloaded a couple of free books on it i wanted but i suppose i really should make the effort and read the manual although i don't think i will have much use for the wifi

[CLKD]

what's wifi?  I would never buy a Kindle, preferring the smell and feel [nearly said taste  ] of books old or new. 

[silverlady]

You need a WIFI connection to download books from Amazon, you can also surf the Net with Kindle. once you have downloaded any book, you can go to the Menu and you have the option to turn "wireless off" its a good idea to do this because then you don't have to charge your Kindle up so often.

OH has got a tab rather than a Kindle but downloads books in the same way. He can also "borrow" books from the library - they appear on his tab for a limited amount of time.
