Gem, hopefully as your body continues to recover from being so ill last summer, plus all the stress you were under selling your Mm's house, I think the fact that you've stopping losing your hair is a good sign. Hopefully it will start to thicken up again through the Spring and Summer months. How are your energy levels? I know that's a difficult question with sciatica, plus losing your Mum and Henry so close together, but it seems that overall well-being is linked to all aspects of life.

My energy levels are not great Daisy. As you say there are lots of factors coming in to play

It might be worth ringing the surgery and at least have a telephone consultation, although I think a proper physical check up would be better. Sorry, that sounds like nagging, but I don't mean it that way! xx

I agree with Daisy Gem, not nagging but try and get the physical.xxx

Gemini, you give so much time and help to others it is time for you to think of your health and well being.

[Gemini]

Thanks ladies.
I'm just a bit overloaded right now, with all that has gone on recently and seeming to constantly be worried and anxious about family and friends.
Hopefully the weekend away will help.

You need some me time and only concentrate on yourself for a while .

Be kind to yourself my wonderful friend sending much love and hugs xxx

So sorry to read all this, Gem. I do hope you can get some help one way or another. I really must try and catch up.

[Daisy]

Gem, constant anxiety and worry takes its toll. I really hope this week-end gives you and S a chance to unwind, put your cares on one side for a couple of days and concentrate on looking after yourselves and each other. xx

An update on this!

My hair seems to have regained its previous thickness now, if quite a bit curlier!

[Plantaholic]

So pleased to hear that Gemini
