Thank you for those ideas of what to try........all stopped for 'Popstar to Operastar' tonight, just waiting now for the votes......ha, they all agreed with me!
Caz has at last got her tax bill, and it wasn't quite as bad as she thought......she has some ideas of lovely foods to help increase that blood count. I might have the need to skip up north again next week, to support her IF she needs a transfusion, which of course in her comparatively weakened state, just getting those levels climbing, might present quite a risk. the bacterial problems in donated blood are all sorted out by the process it goes through but there can be unknown viruses which could be a risk. I just hope she can manage to build up by herself! (ha, that waffle over, I think as I type when it is about our lass!)
Sorry to hear Caz is experiencing the problems with her skin. I have had problems with very dry skin for some time, but it has recently become worse. The latest prescription from my G.P. was for "Hydromol" emollient cream (otherwise known as) Sodium Pyrrolidone Carboxylate. It has taken several days of application, but am now seeing an improvement. I do hope Caz soon finds something to sort it out.
Take care and am thinking of you and Caz. x x x x♦
So sorry to hear that dear Caz is still having problems, I pray that everything settles down for her soon and her blood count rises without intervention. Bless her and you.
Morning Helen, Hope that your dear Caz is feeling a touch better now, hope that she hears from the dermatologist real soon..We have that strange yellow thing up in the sky again today but still cold.. Have a lovely day.. Love and (((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))) Quill xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
We obviously had a hailstorm which stayed looking snowy as last night was so frosty, but now its very sunny, so I hope today will stay fine.
Haven't heard from Caz today, but hope she is ok and has had some sleep, still having problems with her sleep pattern I know, she has terrible problems getting off to sleep, does have sleeping tablets but is not keen on taking them. Bless her, yesterday she said her face is swollen when she first gets up, so should she get up earlier and doze on the sofa........it seems to go down during the day, so of course I said I think she needs her sleep. I hope she phones her GP today! Another blood test tomorrow to see if she needs transfusing or her red cells are beginning to recover. If she needs it, I will shoot up there to be with her, but only for a day or so, have stuff to do here!
Spoke too soon, am up at Caz's, had a tearful call, dropped everything and rushed around and caught a train about half an hour later! She has now got a dermatology appointment, whew! but a week on Wednesday.......
poor lass, her skin is stiff and uncomfortable and flaky too!
