Hi Nicky
Well done on your exams results x
Did you manage to get your medication sorted out yet?
Ive gave up on the diet. Going to start it again after xmas. I know ive put a lot of weight back on already but im going to avoid the scales until after xmas then hopefully when I do get on it will shock me in to sticking to the diet!
Its my last day at work tomorrow then I can start looking forward to xmas. It doesnt seem like its almost xmas. I cant wait to have a few weeks off work

Hi Nicky
Good luck for you exams results. I hope you manage to get your meds sorted out soon so you can relax over xmas!
Ive got a water infection again. I think ive had it 5 times now since July! The doctor checked my sample and said I have a lot of blood in my wee. He thinks it must be a really resistant bug that ive got and that I might have to take a low dose of antibiotics long term. He send my sample off to the lab and I have to ring tomorrow to check the results and get a prescription.
Dietwise I was good all day then went home and ate a packet of digestives! Trying to be good again today. Dont know whats wrong with me lately I just cant seem to stick to the diet for more than a day!

Hi Claire, my diet not doing too well, I lost 2 pound last week but think I have put it back on this week.
I am still having a carry on with the doctors, I got the a copy of the letter from the consultant today about the medication (same copy he gave doctor) and it does say about meds, but I cannot get an appointment until next monday. I dont want to go and leave the letter for the doctor to het prescription as it is the only copy I have and if they loose it I am stuck.
The doctor wants me to take 400mg of sodium valporate on a night
I am also due to get my exam results in the post this week.
Good luck with your diet this week

Hi Nicky
Did you manage to get your medication sorted out?
I still havent managed to get back on track with my diet yet. I got on the scales this morning and im 8 stone 11! Totally gutted as I was 8 stone 4.5 not long ago. Going to try and totally diet from now til xmas eve and hopefully shift as much as possible. I know I will put on quite a bit over xmas and dont want to be over 9 stone again.
Hows your diet going?

Hi Claire how are you doing?
My mri scan was mornal, but am having a hassle getting the medication that the consultat wanted my gp to prescribe. They are saying there is nothing in the letter to say about the epilim medication he wants me to take. We have spoke to the consultant and he is going to send me a copy of the letter.
Hope your results are good.

Hi Nicky
Hope all your tests and treatment goes ok. Hopefully you will get a sicknote to cover you over xmas so you dont have to work it.
Im certain ive failed the second one. The pass rates are that low that even if you know your stuff you can still fail and I know I what I wrote was crap. All of us who sat it are in the same boat. I looked at all the past exam papers as part of my studies and they were all fine so I think ive been really unlucky as most of the time its just one of the questions that your not sure of but on this paper it was all of them. Dont get my results til 16th feb and the next exam sitting is in June.

Hi Claire,
Sorry to hear your news, a really bad day for you. will keep fingers crossed for you for your results though. I get mine next week.
I have to go to the gp tomorrow to get some medication and my sick note for work. Only thing is I am not sure how long I need to take off so need to have a word with the gp. I am suppose to be working over xmas.
I am still waiting for mri results
Take care

Hi Nicky
Exam was awful it was even worse than the other one. It felt like I was in the wrong exam as the stuff on it wasnt covered by my course notes. Certain ive failed it so really hoping ive passed the first one. Everyone who I spoke to afterwards felt the same.
When I got home my sis told me she got her smear results and has cancerous cells then Gary got a phone call saying his shift was cancelled because a lad had hung himself at work so it was an awful day.
Hows things with you?

Hi Nicky
Just got back from my first exam. It was absolutely solid and was the hardest exam ive ever sat. I never had time to finish the exam so I will only pass if I score really high marks an the parts I did.
Dreading tomorrows exam now as have forgot loads of the stuff I had learnt and still have a load of stuff I havent looked at yet. Im going to have to cram tonight and hope for the best!

Hi Nicky
I hope your tests go ok. Whereabout do you live? I went to the james cook at middleborough for my op! I live in Consett which is also about about an hour from the hospital!
I am now beyond stressed with my exams. I have the first one on tue and im nowhere near prepared enough. I cant sleep for worrying. Im sure I wont cover enough to pass either of them so I just want them over with so I can forget about them for a while and start looking forward to xmas.

Hi Nicky
Hope your appointment went ok today
My wound is still sore but its a lot better than it was.
Dietwise im back to eating takeaways as ive got no time to cook since im studying around the clock. Cant wait til wed til exams are over. Really stressed out about them now. One is so hard I dont think I have a chance of passing and the other I havent studied enough for since ive been spending all my time on the one im struggling with. They both have a massice syllabus and I havent got time to cover the whole syllabus for them both. Im going to have to leave some areas and not study them so im knackered if they are on the exam.
There is a good chance I will fail both and if I do im going to resit them one at a time. Its my own fault for trying to do them both at once but im preying that I managed to get through at least one of them.

Hi Nicky
Glad to hear your out of hospital. I wouldnt worry about going to weigh in until your well again.
Ive been to hospital myself today for my op to remove my birthmark. It was just a little one near my hairline on the side of my head. They used a laser to remove it and its left a open wound and its starting to really sting now but its should start healing in 3-5 days. Im just glad to be off work as it gives me some extra time to study!
