OH NO!  Have you any meths/alcohol/cloves - the idea is to soak a cotton wool ball with it, squeeze it hard and apply to the painful area.  Osmosis.  Draws any liquid from around the socket ........

Checking in  ;)
Didn't see any comments CLKD....please don't think of walking away from the forum.  :(

I have been here only a short time, and some of that that time has been a nightmare. It's been posters on this forum...especially you CLKD, who have given so much good advice and been so generous in taking the time to write with kind words ......which  kept me going through this awful menopause and the health problems it brings.

 :thankyou: :foryou:
Title: Re: All present and correct
Post by: CLKD on March 24, 2020, 08:25:19 PM
Why thanks  :wub:  I does my best tha' knows  ;)

I'm off for my bath at 9.00 and expect everyone to be checking in by mid-morning  ;)

I am here, still coping with anxiety which is taking over!

Cough but only throat clearing which I have had for most of this year, throat issues but again same as most of this year.

Will feel much easier after my 14 day isolation period is over.  Day 5 today.
Title: Re: All present and correct
Post by: CLKD on March 25, 2020, 09:25:36 AM
Not awake yet.  Broken night ........ bluddy worry about Virus  >:(

At least the sun is shining  8)
Title: Re: All present and correct
Post by: Donnadoobie on March 26, 2020, 07:49:36 AM
Tough night, got to sleep at 1:30am as heart was racing with anxiety attack.  Was awake again by 7:00am.

Heart is faster than normal again today but feeling calmer.  No sign of a temp or cough.  Feeling a little easier as I read an article that It is rare for covid to be passed before symptoms show, a cardiologist friend also told me that on Saturday when I was having a panic but thought  he was just telling me to calm me down.  So holding onto that today.

Day 6 of isolation

How R U arms, mine ache  ;D - I was surprised at the ripple of applause that went through our village of 2,500 residents at 8.00 p.m. as well as people waving at each other.  The Tesco delivery driver tapped on his van window from inside apparently  :-*

Another night of busy dreams: in Italy with either hoards of people or alone and I kept losing my neighbour.  One time she had been to the toilets but hadn't let me know .... then DH appeared but he wasn't on the trip  :-\. Knackered and the dream is whirring in my head  >:(. I may be some time ........

I hope Stellajane comes back. I'm not sure if the post I saw was hers or not but it wasn't offensive. Sad she feels the need to leave.

Hi girls,

Present, far from correct though 😂

Sad that stellajane has gone, hope she comes back. I don't know what has been posted (been busy looking after my dad), but I will always support freedom of speech as long as no offence has taken place. She was such a prolific poster, the forum will miss her input.

Stay safe girls!
