Hi Coll, I'm new too but likely be kicked off because GP thinks I've got PMS but can I just ask you to do something tonight please? When your kids get home from school, ask them if they had a nice Christmas and I think you will find that they did. It is so hard keeping all the balls in the air, when you are poorly (just keeping on top of the washing is a huge challenge especially this weather!) We all feel so guilty for being ill but really is it our fault, and if my CPN read that she would not believe that I had said it
