Twinky,
Good news that there’s no node/vein involvement - let us know how you get on Monday.
Hope the choccy and pills work - not been sleeping well myself but trying not to get stimulated by posted late at night!
Axx
Night all, hope the thread is quiet tonight.
Yet nore family traumas this evening, so not sure if I’ll be feeling restful tonight. Actually, I’m pretty sure I won’t be. But nice to know I’ve got people around to whinge at.
Sweet dreams and lavender-scented pillows to you all

Twinky, that does sound like good news, thanks for letting us know. I don’t envy you having the decision re chemo to make, have you asked your Onc what they’d advise if you were their dau, mother, sister, partner? If not, maybe a question to pose on Monday? Please post your decision.
Hope the sleeping tabs lull you off soon. Try to enjoy the weekend, and get lots of rest and TLC.

Oh dear CM, sounds some of your family need putting in a bag and shaken up! You whinge here all you like, we’re always here for you.
Hope you do get to sleep soon.

night night ladies, hope we don’t meet up at 4am and we all get a peaceful sleep.
Hope the tablets work Twinky.
CM, hope you are so exhausted that you do sleep and feel a bit better to cope with ur little darlings in the morning :o)
Heres hoping ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Night night Clare, sleep well, zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
I’m going to try for some shut eye soon, but not too bothered if I don’t sleep well tonight as I have a 3hr car journey tomorrow and it would be nice to sleep through that.
Hoping everyone has a good weekend.

(Stomp stomp stomp…Twinky enters the room). No I’m not asleep yet…think I need to go rant on a bench!
(Stomp stomp stomp …Twinky leaves the room)
Aww Twinky, poor you!
Is your OH snoring and coughing on the sofa? It’s so flipping annoying isn’t it when they (OH) sleep like babies and we are unable to get into the land of nod. I wish you sweet dreams soon, very soon.
I’m going to try and get some kip now, so I’ll say good night, but I may be back!

Thanks Libby ( hugs back). No hubby isn’t disturbing me as I sent him packing to the sofa. I just dont seem able to sleep. Hungry now so might sneak downstairs for a snack. Maybe that will help send me off. Don’t know why but post op I have a huge appetite. Just what did they give me when I was under!
Hope you don’t read this until the morning!

Twinks they sometimes give steroids as anti sickness. just given up trying to get back to sleep. Tossed and turned since 4 then got up for a wee and a drink. And now on here for a whinge! Hope I’m the only one here.
Hi CM,
Just joined you, I did at least sleep 4 hrs, so thats a record lately. I have a nice cuppa and a few busicuits to keep me going, then I mat try again.
Brrrrrrrr its chilly today down here.
Clare xxxx
We have cosy blankets beside the sofa and always end up under them. And sleeping bags also live there so we stay snug. Might be worth keeping one there in your house so you can stay cosy when you’re on the sofa in the middle of the night and in case you feel like dozing without having the effort of going back to bed. Hope you find the land of nod again before morning.
Evening night owls. Snuggled up on the sofa in a new position (on my good side) rather than on my back so hoping that sleep will come tonight. Also went out to a love pub for lunch with some female relatives & there was much giggling and eating. Was very tired when I got back but it probably did me good to exhaust myself a bit. Here’s hoping that everyone sleeps soundly tonight

MorningTwinky, has your OH got the bed again? How is the man flu? I too had a superb pub lunch at the Perch near Oxford. It is owner is very French but the menu, decor and log fires etc. were very inviting after a short walk on Port Meadow. Not pub grib or pub prices but who cares these days!! We had been to Abingdon to look at the Marina with thoughts of moving our boat there. I think we will stay where we are, because it wasn’t worth the extra just for very basic facilities. We keep it on a really lovely site. A farmer spent a couple of million building a Marina . Wet room showers with underfloor heating, BBQs, a lovely conservatory housing large TVs coffee machines and a farmers wife who cooks breakfast every weekend. It is spotless and has spoilt us for anywhere else. The only problem, not that it is one really, is the hour it takes to get there from home.
Hope you get to sleep soon

Been reading the posts on this group for last 3 nights, even at 3.45am this morning or was that yesterday morning, need to get out of this sitting up thinking mode,

i slept eventually till 1.50pm whoops.
set a dead line for 1.30am so if i not back at 1.35 then i hopefully in slobber land ~~fingers crossed~

Hi Cackles…the pub was The Folly Inn at Napton, sits on the canal. Not cheep but decent food. Hubby already making noises about going there next Saturday! Am on the sofa be ause have discovered I feel nice & cosy lying on my good side with my back supported by the sofa (tried it for a snooze this afternoon) so maybe will sleep tonight! Hope you get there too Supersue!

Well i still here no sign of sleep. :-(, had my painkillers, too
supersue, now looking for a rubber sleep hammer.
Morning all unfortunately. Spent the day at a swim meet for grown ups (Masters) and had a wonderful day. Lots of hugs from lots of people, only some of them soggy, and felt great Had a beer and delish curry for tea and thought that would do the trick. But I think I might be coming down with something. Was DREAMING that I had a urine infection, which is a bit weird.
Will roll over and try again.
Sweet dreams all.

Sleep, where are you,
Had a lovely evening in, then BED, oh beside himself as to what to do with me as the pain I’m in is out of this world, had the lot, it’s not working…
Trying to look forward to a lovely lunch tomorrow or some sort of divine intervention takes over for me
Xxx
I’m still awake, becoming a habit!
Twinky, sorry to see you here again…I do hope you manage to sleep very soon. Let me know what decision you come to after speaking with your Onc Monday.
I’ve had a lovely day, OH and I drove from York’s down to Bed’s to stay with friends for the weekend. It was so good to see them. We had a wonderful meal and copious amounts of wine, the others’, not me, I had two small glasses, (wine still makes me dizzy) and great conversation. It’s so nice to be with close friends, friends where one feels at home. Tomorrow, I hope to lie in till lunchtime and then research a little family history online. Later, another long leisurely lunch is planned. Ooh almost forgot, it’s Sunday…I love Sunday newspapers.
Going to try and sleep now. Hope all you other night owls are slumbering.
