places I'd rather be.........#2

After what has been a flippin' hideous week I'm trying to take it easy.

I had several scans on wednseday which have shown I have an ovarian cyst (!!!!!) AND a kidney stone (no wonder I'm in such pain). Waiting for my GP to tell me what happens next. Half an hour after these scans I had my mammograms. These are always stressful and I try SO hard to keep calm (Thanks Mrs L for taking me). The radiographer alarmed me by saying she needed to re-scan my 'good' breast as she wasn't sure about it. OH BEAM ME UP! Enough now! I spent my birthday eve in tears and agony as my back 'went' and I couldn't move. The Drain-man came to unblock our drains on friday eve (apologies to all our neighbours for the aroma) as they were completely blocked up. Oh dear Lord the man must have nostrils of steel. My posh birthday candle was unwrapped and I spent the entire evening inhaling it's figgy goodness. Just to add a cherry to the top of this pile of **** I got the mother of all migraines on saturday..................STOP IN THE NAME OF CHEESE PLEASE!

This week I will be mostly taking things easy and breathing calmly.

This week............

Things have been a bit chaotic and emotional in the house of Cheese this week!
I'm sorry for the lack of posts and piccies but this is why:

• MONDAY - Appointment at clinical psychologist - I have to go through this so that I can opt for bi-lateral masectomies, all very draining and upsetting.

• TUESDAY - had a mini break-down as I received my appointment for genetic testing next tuesday and therefore had a lengthy health form to fill out. All I wanted to do was talk to my dear old mum, so I cried and cried and cried some more.

• WEDNESDAY - Doctor's with large-haired eldest as his asthma is playing up AGAIN!

• THURSDAY - dental appointments for kids. Physiotherapy appointment for lymphodema drainage. Dr's appointment to offload to my wonderful doctor.

• FRIDAY - Eldest had a massive allergic reaction to something, and had swollen eyes and lips. He had to take the day off school and ended up back at the dr's. He's being referred to a consultant now and they've changed his antihistamine. Cooking for my lovely girlfriends who came and braved the chilly weather to eat curry and drink pimms and talk girly stuff. Thanks lovely ladies it was a fun evening.

• SATURDAY - Fluffy youngest had her ears pierced today........Holy Moley what an emotional event. Three girls having their ears done at the same time, plenty of tears, shouting and upset. FIVE soaking wet pre-teens have just descended and have taken over the middle room..............crikey what a noise!

• SUNDAY - two paracetamols and a lie-in I reckon before it all kicks off again next week!
