Sorry things are rather hit and miss for me both being able to connect to the site, and in-between crushing pressure in my head causing migraines making focusing on screen difficult. I have been dealing with a head lesion for six months now and i am awaiting a biopsy where they have now decided that i can wait a bit longer, even though they have openly admitted they don't know the cause, my gynae team aren't happy that I have basically an open wound on my head which can get infected etc. Must say i have been lucky to only have one outwardly obvious infection, i do what i can to keep the area clean but i keep getting internal infections it seems, so keeping on antibiotic's, it also seems to be the cause i can only guess of the pressure pain in my head and the fatigue. I am so frustrated that with all i do to keep fit and active, I really enjoy my yoga and aqua classes i seem to struggling to keep fit without being exhausted and crashing out in bed, or just having no energy to think etc.. Luckily although i have been struggling to be onsite i have been reading the notification's of posts and have been completely humbled by you all, no matter how hard things get your support for each other is an absolute wonderful thing to have. I have always been so happy with the support all the ladies give each other, this is your strength. So i send my love to you all, together we are stronger, we are the womb warriors a friend often championed.
Oh GBear. I'm aware how things have been for you and I'm sorry they haven't got you sorted out yet, it's taken so long. I'm sending a gentle hug your way and hope things improve for you very soon.
I'm proud to count myself amongst the Womb Warriors and I agree, they're my Online strength. No matter what my sister and friend may say they don't know what goes on in my head, whereas you all do!
Hugs, Barb xx

hi Rach_E hope your well, yeah technical glitches have really been hampering me, my iPad now will not allow me to log on to the site, i think its an age thing with it as i cant update it any more. i love using my iPad but will have to except that it will not work. my old laptop has gone so donkey slow it struggles with things although still works it just struggles to load, so i have got myself a new laptop, which is taking some getting used too, but couldn't cope with constant issues online. A group i am involved with used to do online discos on a Friday which started during lockdown to help people get thought it has been having issues getting the internet and social media to behave, so i was glad it wasn't just me, and they live near me. But we try.
