Having no money. Or no grown up savings. Starting on new year I have a direct debit going from my wages account to my saving account taking 1/3 of my wages to go savings.....I think I need to go to my doctor because it hurts to walk with a pain in my chest and feels like my heart is sore I think it's a chest infection. 50 euro for a stupid diagnosis I know myself and more money for more anti biotics that make me so run down ill have another infection next week.
I might as well not bother saving, it's jinxing bad things

Lexie, go and get yourself sorted. You have recounted too many symptoms for a typical chest infection. See to it. The savings can wait. Your immediate health is more important.
You'll be more than trivially annoyed if you let this build and worsen.

You wouldn't drive your car without putting fuel in it your body needs the Eltroxin.
Jimgoose is right

I have inherited my late father's rhinocerous-like constitution, and eat like a army barracks, i.e. all of everything. Mrs. Goose theorises that virii and bacteria take one look at what's going on in there and turn and run! :pac::pac::pac:

Oh DEAR! Try some vitamin C.... and multi vits.....like NOW! More anti bs will not help?

Do as the GP advises, Lexie. Please!
I have seen the impact of self diagnosed chest infections and improperly regulated thyroid medication.

Jimgoose Mrs Goose sounds brilliant. I understand why you married her.

I had bloods done I need vitamin b 12 injections (which i haven't got because .. Injections) I have a low thyroid and have to take eltroxin but eltroxin is expensive and now I have my epilepsy meds to get so they take precedent over thyroid.

I wouldn't have the appetite for a farmers dinner lol I'm a picker, but that could be because I feel so ****. Before Christmas anything I would eat wouldn't even stay there but I don't get sick at all now so it's much better

Have you looked at the drug payment plan? No need for huge meals .. I cannot eat like that so I graze,, several small meals...fruit etc is good....apple and cheese.... but you MUST get the meds you need. There are natural thyroid meds that dont cost the earth. as for injections... be brave! That alone will drag you down.

When you're on long haul night flight, you have just managed to drift off while watching a film, then there's a LOUD announcement through your earphones.

Happened to me the other day. Look, I know a passenger is ill and the flight crew need a medical doctor to come forward immediately, but I was sleeping, God damn it!

Many carveries do a half-portion. Try that someday, you might even like it! Be careful of that thyroid craic, don't neglect the medication. It's like the regulator for your whole metabolism, you'd be amazed what slows down/speeds up/goes arseways when that gland acts up. Always consult your GP.

One of my family cannot take the synthetic thyroid the dr prescribe so I get her the natural nutri thyroid. The drs missed the diagnosis so we went ahead ourselves.. it can be a hard one to diagnose

Not quite trivial annoyance: Home-cured, organic, knitted-yoghurt, crusty, unregulated, uncontrolled, amateur, Googled, "natural" remedies that flatten more people than they cure. :mad:

Not this one; many drs do advocate it.. she cannot take the synthetic chemical the drs use as it clashes with the heart meds she is on so this was the only way.... so your post is nonsense a it reads,, this is natural thyroid extract ie not some nasty chemical . I am not a believer in drs meds frankly and will always try more natural.. drs kill more than they cure and almost killed me so I am careful now. am alive at 71 and doing better than they all said I would. get informed! relative is better than for years on it and doing fine..google nutri thyroid and learn! also google thyroid support UK and read some of the stories.. your post is more than TA! :mad:after all how can you replace a natural hormone with a chemical? when that hormone is available? .... bedtime here now... bye bye!

At 71, you aren't much more than a chungwan in this day and age. Get out there and party!

I don't believe in doctors any more than I believe in the plumber. They are merely occasionally necessary. And you'd probably be surprised how informed I am. Nighty-night!!

Bedtime?

Mod

It is completely against the rules to give any kind medical advice anywhere on boards.

I'm sure I don't need to tell any of you not to be taking such advice from strangers on the internet.

Doctors have their faults, but "kill more than they cure"....c'mon outa that.

If ever I keel over, clutching my chest, do not call a herbalist for me please. I want the best doctors that the VHI can buy.

OldNotWIse · 08-01-2015 04:01PM

um.....when someone fat gets onto a bus?

Did you ever see that sketch on homeopaths? I love the homeopathic pint - one drop and you're hammered!

We'll probably just be trivially annoyed with you for ruining our day and will step over you in a huff.

Please don't paint all us over 70s with the one brush.

Some of us try to keep up. However I can't get to grips with, nor comprehend the need for, Facebook or Twitter. I get a trivial annoyance when radio programmes or TV do the "follow the full story on FB or twitter" line. Just put it on your webpage for goodness sake or even tell us now!!

Getting stuck on a plane next to a human lard arse is high on the list of things I never want to happen again.

Your choice.. mine is other. Each to his or her own,,, my body my life and my family have my Living Will to that effect. Mine is based on my long experience. I dont mind what YOU do with YOUR life and why should what I do with mine worry anyone! I lost three decades of my life to medical mayhem and misdiagnosis and abuse. Now I ask what and why. And say NO if I am not satisfied. Only this last year I left with a painful and deformed wrist because of medical incompetence so am not about to change my mind. Never any harm in asking. They are only people not magicians. OK? OK!

Well I'm 43, and I tried the FB/Twitter thing briefly before concluding they're both pointless bollocks and deleting myself again. Regarding over 70s, my mother is 78 and gives her 2009 Feshty 130km/h on the M20 like the Little Old Lady From Pasadena. She recently spent three weeks in Manhattan with the brother, and positively ram-raided the place, commanding Boy to transport most of her spoils with him when he came home for Christmas! :pac::pac::pac:
