Hi to everybody...I'm going to apologise before I start for having a moan about my damn body again...last night I had my evening meal and spent the rest of the evening in serious discomfort until one in the morning after a dose of Gavilast liquid and a windeze failed to remove or even ease the gut ache I had after eating...finally took a 12 hour Gavilast tablet and that worked after a while...then went off to sleep and actually had a reasonable night...have discovered that while I don't eat now, I don't get any discomfort...eat anything, even a small bowl of cereal, and I have two or three hours of extreme discomfort so have given up today and gone back just now to my omeprazole...I really was hoping to come off it, but looks like I do need it all the time now...my back still twinges with a sharp pain that shoots right round from the back to the front when I move in a particular position...discovered I hit my back right across the scar line when I fell up the stairs last week where one of my ribs was removed during my stint in hospital when they repaired my back...the nerves keep sparking like electric shocks now...hmmm...my cough seems to be easing a bit now I'm on only two or three cigs a day and smoked in halves rather than all at once...just cannot allow myself to increase my weight again so can't give it up completely...all in all, my body is being a damn nuisance and while I tell it off for being such a pain in back, chest, shoulder and gut, and telling it to get its act together because I'm getting seriously bored with it, it has ignored me so far...LOL...
Right now, my gut is trying to decide whether to react badly to the omeprazole so am trying to keep really calm...hmmm...not easy when you're really fed up with it all...
So, my lovely friends, some of you will relate to this post I'm sure, and the lucky ones with bodies not falling to pieces, I hope will thank their lucky stars...hope you have a good day, are having a bit of sunshine - outside it's trying to break through here - and send you all great big hugs in the meantime...

Oh dear, that all sounds rather unpleasant. I hope you settle down again once the Omeprazole kicks in.
I've just been told by the doctor that my wheezing and coughing is bronchitis and I now have two inhalers because they don't like prescribing antibiotics for it unless it becomes very acute. I get an asthma test in 6 weeks too.
Getting old is no fun at all, is it?

You're not old, Tom!! HLOL...when I was your age I was...no, I wasn't...I was about to say very fit...but had cancer and my back ops then...HLOL...okay...growing old is a bugger...our failures in health seem to multiply unerringly as we advance in years...doesn't seem fair does it...you wait for years for your retirement when you have the free time to do your own thing together with your partner or alone and your damn body falls apart...I demand a new body...if they spent all the money they've spent on blasted wars, we could have overcome the ageing process donkey's years ago, and now have replacement body parts for all of us...hmmm...is it selfish to want to live a healthy life for as long as possible? I've no idea...I just know the mind remains active while the body parts disintegrate at an alarming rate...

I agree, it doesn't seem fair. Given the choice, I'd rather keep my mind active while my body deteriorates rather than vice versa - dementia is just terrible. But then, we don't get to choose!
What a cheery pair we are today...NOT :-)

I'm okay now, thanks, Martin...gone back on my omeprazole and it's sorted out my gut...just don't like the idea of having to be on it permanently as the doc suggested...but, if it works, I can't be in such discomfort all the time so will stick with it...GBHs...XXX
