    So the doc rang back and I've to take 2 morphine tabs in the morning and 2 in the evening and he wants to see me in a few days. Said i'm far too young to have this kind of pain and something needs to be done about it once and for all. I kinda feel relieved in a way that he's willing to help me rather than put me on repeat painkillers for the rest of my life like the others.

    There is something so reassuring about a doctor who really shows that they care. It's nice to not just feel like 'another patient'.

    I hope he can find something to help you!

    Would I be really stupid to take some Paralief tablets that were given to me in 2007...?

    They should have an expiry date on the edge of the blister pack.

    Trying to keep the snacking to a minamun but my mother keeps giving me a hard time over the fact that I ate a small bowl of rice pudding for dessert. Jesus, I can't win. I'm scoulded if I eat, scolded if I don't, scolded if I eat a low-fat version of something. Just **** off already. :mad:

    Next time she say anything get up and walk out. Trying to change your eating habits isn't about depriving yourself.

    My Boardsie BFF wants to buy me the new Dublin jersey. The last time he did this we won the All Ireland :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,813 ✭✭✭PhysiologyRocks


    Teeth are gone - feeling great! :D

    Only taking paracetamol and anti-inflammatories. They gave me some super-strong ones too, but I haven't needed them yet. :)

    Hope all good with you guys!

    I found a good website for online food diary keeping. It's got a lot of good tips.

    Still feeling hunger pangs but I'm going to try to silence them with decaff green tea. Most likely I'm just thirsty. Bleh.

    Wishing you a speedy recovery!

    Rant:
    My mother wrecks my head sometimes. Now that I'm home for a few days she's given me a list of chores to do everyday, which I don't really have time for seeing as I still have studying to do, but I do them anyway for a quiet life.
    Then she comes home from work and starts giving out because I have lights on in the room I'm studying in. Because, you know, being able to see stuff isn't necessary. And not a word of thanks for doing the jobs she asked me to do. :mad: Ilyana.
    /rant.

    Try having a glass of water and if you're still hungry in 15/20 minutes then eat something. An apple is usually a good bet. It's possibly just your body getting used to eating less, but still, sticking to rigid three-meals-a-day isn't productive in the long run. You have to listen to your body. :)


    Been in the library for most of the day. SO tired, with a capital so. Exams, why aren't you over? I want to sleep! Also miss boyfriend more today than I did when I hadn't seen him in weeks. :(

    Second exam was like falling off a log.

    Woo!

    Pity it wasn't an exemption subject :( I want to ask can i take marks off that and add them to this mornings :p

    Fuelled by red bull and coffee all day, been up since 5. Hopefully home by 9 and in bed by ten.

    Halfway through them now :D

    I'm sorry all I can talk about is my exams, I promise to be more interesting when they're over!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭Tigger99


    Good luck to all the ladies doing exams :):)

    What a lovely evening, apart from the hailstones!

    Just tried on one of my jackets for work, in court tomorrow, and it fits me :D:D:D 2 months ago I couldn't get it comfortably across my incredible hulk shoulders :D Oh yeah!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 267 ✭✭larrymickdick


    Ah best of luck to everyone doing exams! My bro is doing his atm - have never met anyone as relaxed about them all - he's like " ah sure of course I'll pass them - I've studied for them - no point stressing... " haha he's gas

    McChubbin - if you're hungry eat - just make it something healthy - do some carrot sticks or slices of pepper with humus - protein and carbs together will keep you fuller for longer. Or if ya like peanut butter put some on brown bread toast. Not eating enough can cause your body to go into "starvation mode" then you won't lose weight either. Best of luck with it though

    would love a bit of choco cake now...

    That myth was busted loooooong ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭Tigger99


    Has it been?

    It would be my experience to be honest and a qualified nutritionist and a doc said the same to me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,772 ✭✭✭Ella


    Havent seen Mam since Saturday (have been talking to her twice a day since). Turns out when she left mine she went to the shops and the car door flew back on her face with the wind and she has a nice big shinner. She'd go ape shít if i didnt tell her something like that happened to me. Dont know what i'm going to do with that woman and her secrets! :mad:

    "ah sure i dont even know it's there till i look in the mirror"
