Thursday I met my friend, Tina for breakfast. I haven't seen her for a few weeks so it was good to catch up.
Lunch time I met my friend, Mandy, she is a great inspiration for me. She does her own kidney dialysis 3/4 times a day, at home, and still manages to smile and live her life to the full. She has taught me so much about facing up to challenges, such a wonderful friend and great to get back in touch with her.
Yesterday was an eventful day.
I met some local warriors in the city centre for coffee. It was wonderful to catch up with them all.
I left them around lunch time and went off to get some school clothes for Kieran. When I got home I was feeling very dizzy. I had been vomitting for the previous 3 days and put that down to just feeling unwell since taking the steroids, even thought it may be the gall stones.
As it got worse, I called my GP. She was'nt available and I saw someone else.
Siobhan and I got a cab to the surgery.
The Dr checked my blood pressure and ears and determined that I had an inner ear infection.
Siobhan came with me and while I lay down in one of the Dr's rooms, she went and got the prescription I needed.
I was told to go home and stay in bed for 24/48 hours and take the anti- dizzy drugs.
They worked well and stopped the sickness so at leats I could eat something.
I felt and still do feel so stupid but am so very glad it is a trivial illness that will be sorted out very quickly.
I am so cross with myself as I was all set to go out to the theatre with my friend, Carolyn tonight. We were going to have a meal and a show.... GGrrrrr!!! Now I have had to cancel it. I am sure we will go to another show. She can tell me what it was like.
