I can't inflict that on anyone else. <br />At least, that is how it used to be. I'll pop down tomorrow morning and see, if I think it necessary. If I don't I'll email and see what luck I get regarding a pathway for me.

Alternatively, do you have an NHS walk in centre near you, or try the 111 online service where you can type in your symptoms and seek help that way. Hope you can get some sorted. xxEileen Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06340398156618870705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-24794712463173225882021-07-10T14:05:50.836+01:002021-07-10T14:05:50.836+01:00I think the very fact that you are falling asleep ...I think the very fact that you are falling asleep is an indicator that your body needs some extra rest.

The web site isn't clear so I'm going to drive over on Monday morning and see what it says on the surgery door. If I can get in to the receptionist, I can talk to her - they're very helpful at that surgery, not dragons at all. xxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-2370812701025148642021-07-10T09:19:56.130+01:002021-07-10T09:19:56.130+01:00I'm glad the massage is helping you heal.

We may even get some sunshine this evening, that'll be nice. Might get to sit out in the caravan garden.<br /><br />I'm glad the massage is making your legs a bit better, it's quite concerning how long it's been going on now, I think I'd be wanting to go to the GP. Anyway, your decision! I wouldn't worry about falling asleep in the chair - I'm of the opinion that our bodies let us know what they need, so if you fall asleep, you need it!<br /><br />Enjoy your weekend off. xxSoozehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03762391472811785736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-88479304121504998572021-07-10T07:52:21.405+01:002021-07-10T07:52:21.405+01:00Glad your injury seems to be healing I am hoping m...Glad your injury seems to be healing I am hoping my sinus troubles are also improving.Diane Eppshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02227325305615990424noreply@blogger.com
