Afternoon everyone, wow it’s been a bit of a tough couple of weeks…
So I was put on “Ciprofoxacin” for two weeks to help with the pain in the scrotum and end of the penis, it has cured the scrotum pain but not fully the penis pain although it’s not stopping me from living and doing anything..sleeping is still broken but getting better…
we have had the builders in for a new kitchen, the tilers decided to wash there tools in our new sink, result…blockage…of course they deny doing anything, I’ve spent a few days unblocking it, spent around £100 on all sorts of tools to help fix it…luckily today it’s seems to have worked…
all this and the heat has resulted in my dog (Leo) becoming unwell, he went off his food and wasn’t himself, he had diarrhoea with loads of blood in it…I really thought we was gonna lose him, after a few visits to the vets he is now on antibiotics and seems to be making a recovery…
because the penis pain hasn’t cleared they have given me another 2 weeks of “Ciproflaxcin” and a course of “Tamsulosin”
im told by my CNS that the Tamsulosin with help with toilet issues…add this up with the anxiety tablets and the “ statins” and I rattle when I walk…
not working today and had a loverly 3 hour nap…
Sorry I’ve not caught up much. Love to you all.
camera on the 10th….

Chin up man, glad the doggie seems to be doing better, workmen well the less said the better generally sometimes when it contains to tradies.
And hope you can get Nigel junior to sort himself out soon.
It's been a bit like that for me lately, puss cat being unwell and costing me a fortune, poor sleep due to the eternal wait for a check up, plus guy moving in upstairs making a racket all the time and then finally getting the appointment and starting to get more anxious about knowing, and now waiting to know for sure what this latest biopsy means.
Plus dealing with identity fraud as well that someone has been applying for loans/credit card and or bank accounts in my name.

I also hate autocorrect and hope people can make sense out of my posts when it changes half the words I type.
Hi Nigel, just got back from jollys on saturday , only just catching up. It sounds like you have had the most awful time of it. It is hard enough when you have something wrong with you, but the added worry of seeing Leo must have had you in a spin. I am so glad both you and Leo are improving . These past few months have been really tough on you. Hopefully everything will be sorted by the 10th and you can make a fresh start.
As for builders /tilers dont even at me my friend, some real cowboys out there.
I have got number 19 on tuesday and I am not going to lie, dreading it. Sooner its over the better. Going to try and not think about it until Tuesday, but its hard isnt it.
Take care my friend, keep in touch. Hugs to Leo and the Nigels x
Much love Angela x
morning my friend , picked the best week , had a great time , made the most of every minute. When did you get back ? I trust you had the same . Its raining here today and my garden is loving it, not so much me but I refuse to change from shorts to trousers lol !
Thanks for your good wishes for tomorrow, I am needing some motivation to think positively about it , so booked to go back to jersey in September. I shall visualise the sun glistening on the ocean while urgently visiting the loo. It will help a little I hope . Good to hear from you , hope all is well with the Garviv family x
Much love Angela x
