Ignore the previous comment dont know what happened there,,,     Well hello ladies Happy New Year to you all and I hope you had a very good christmas.. i have a date for my MRI its on Saturday the 23rd of Jan at 8.15 yes 8.15 on a saturday morning. Jeepers means I have to get up at 6 in the morning... The hope is that it is a bulging disc causing all the pain if so it will be a bloody relief to find out what it is as I am sooooo fed up of taking pain killers just to get through the day, and also would like to get back to as near normal life as is possible.. but hey ho there are people worse off than myself but sometimes it dosen't feel like it, Marie  ...

Well I hadn't heard anything Thursday so I phones the secretary who said " I have your file in the pile on my desk I will be typing the notes up today or tomorrow " red flag to a bull I said " he wrote the card our whilst I was there but X-ray have not got it a week later " she said" I will look at your notes today and if he hasn't written one out will get him to do one" arghhhhhhh I asked if she could let me know either way so if not I would get my dr to do one urgently but she rang back and said he had done one and was trying to get in touch with nuclear medicine to see what was goin on.

Hi Namaste, I find myself in the waiting room again too after having a painful hip for a couple of days I went to A&E had a X-ray now got to have bone scan it may be they are being cautious because I've had cancer the Dr said.

Just had good news I've been accepted for ill health retirement so I get a little bit more pension so I don't have to worry about that now. That's what I had Rachel under general. It showed no significant changes. But I also have poly cystic ovaries I wish they would just whip mine out... Marie ... View more
