Health, Computer and Printer...


Hi everyone, i hope your all keeping well. A few things have happened the last couple of weeks. My aunt "D" went along for her appointment at Broomfields hospital three weeks ago and they kept her in. Where she had her skin graph on her leg, apparently it had got infected and she had to stay in a room on her own. Some of the family were visiting her and we kept in touch by phone as she was allowed her mobile in her room. She phoned me this afternoon to tell me she came home today.

Three weeks ago i went along for my appointment with the glaucoma clinic. It seems that my R/eye had high pressure again and my L/eye the pressure was fluctuating high to normal...what ever that means i do'nt know! Anyway, i was told to carry on with my eye drops as normal and i will be sent for when the warmer weather is here to be tested throughout the day every 2 hours and i've to be there early in the morning. I'm not looking forward to that, a whole day of nothing.

Weekend before last i had "Z" stay over while "SH" went out to celebrate her birthday, she was 35 years old this year. "ST" was here on the Saturday and every Saturday, but has'nt stayed over though!

I've had a bad chest infection. It started the Monday after i had "Z" stay with me. I think i must have caught it at the DR surgery on the Friday my GP wanted to see me about my meds that i ordered at the chemist, all is ok. There were coughs and colds floating about the surgery all over the place, so it was inevertable that i got it. I've been having a lot of problems with it too. My Asthma was playing up and i had a mild attack one night, so i increased my meds untill i got to the DRs the coming Friday. When i did get to see my GP again he examined me and told me to breath in and out. I had a coughing spasm and the terrible pain in my head and i kept falling sideways. I'm glad that happened there and then really, because thats what happens to me with anything stressful with this chiari complaint and the Drs hav'nt seen it happen to me before so he made a note of it. Anyway as i was saying, my GP gave me antibiotics for the chest infection which i'm still taking and he told me to increasemy Asthma meds, i told him that i had already done so and to carry on as i am. I still get breathless if i do too much, but i am much better than what i was.

"?" has been ok of late, but i think he may be coming down with a cold or something. Oh dear i hope not, hes one of the worlds worst patients when illness strikes.

This afternoon i un-installed my all-in-one printer as it was'nt working properly then re-installed it again and all is working ok now. Then i could'nt get online, i kept getting the error page, mind you thats been happening often or quite sometime now. So, what i done to get online was click on START, click on RUN and type in my server address and it came through. And for a blank page do the same as above, but enter the url address of the page you want and it should take you there.

I hope your week is going well for you and your all keeping well in yourselves. I will leave it here as its getting late, so best wishes to you all and take care!
