no change
Posted Feb 24, 2008
Nothing much to report really..still ill, waiting to see the specialist.My appointment was for tomorrow but now it's been cancelled and is in two weeks time. Until I see the specialist can't move on with anything 
. So on minimal medication which just about stops me having bad asthma attacks but I feel like I am struggling most days to do ordinary tasks.
Occupational health at work agree with my doctor ,that I should stay off sick until they move me. Apparently I am now suffering from psychological distress as well as occupational asthma....Occupational Health doctors words not mine.
I have a meeting with personnel next week to see what they are going to offer me.Another colleague, different circumstances however,has waited 11 months for a move. I can't wait much longer.If I go back to the same job I will end up very ill if not dead.
So otherwise things are the same. Nessie is enjoying her research in the lab and has got some funding to continue for a few more months ,which is brilliant
Cats are still with us and haven't changed much
I hope everyone is Ok. I try to pop in to see how people are but it seems awfully quiet of late.
to all .Happy Sunday.

bad stuff

I am not at work today so popped in to say helloo
The reason I am off work is because I had two asthma attacks during the night because of my horrible boss. The union at work have been very supportive and personnel are trying to get me another job.
I am trying to keep going but it's not easy.The only other thing I can do is take legal action which I would only do as a last resort.Though the union say I should get compensation for the occupational asthma.
Daughter is fine. old cat Oedipus, is still around as is fatty cat baggins. Not much else to report except I've missed everyone and I hope you are all ok

I ain't dead yet..TP fans will recognise that.
I have felt quite near to it lately. I was sent to hospital last Monday for xrays,this week I have to go for blood tests this afternoon and some other thing ..sigh..just call me a pin cushion.
So far i have had 2 lots of antibiotics, one lot of steroids and now waiting test results. I am still off work and hardly have the energy to walk to the post box 5 minutes away.I haven't even felt i could come on line as it was too much effort.
Thank you for the messages and a big to everyone. Hopefully next week i should have some answers and be able to get something to make me well.
I hope everyone is ok

I've not been around besides the stuff at work ..it appears I am actually quite ill
Went to the doc yesterday, after being off work since monday, and expected to be told pull your self together woman and get back to work(the doctor I saw is ex army).Instead of which I apparently have a temperature(I thought it was hot flushes
)and have been told to rest or else.
I am off sick for ten days and have some large green capsules to take that look like something I used to give the goat for worms.
I feel quite odd(no funny comments please ) ,like my head and body don't belong together and my legs feel like jelly.
The capsules say do not expose yourself to direct sun light or sun lamps...I may be turning in to a vampire
..I'll let you know.
I am going to go now and drink lots of fluids and just doze
in the chair as I can't breathe when I lay down.
Take care everyone big and look after yourselves..I'll be back soon to take part again.I hope everyone is being good
