Best wishes to you Darrell. Let’s hope for some good new year news.
Glad its not as bad as last time around Darrell and fingers crossed they get on top of it asap.
Take care pal.
I’ll start worrying when they send you to Switzerland!
Gotta laugh, otherwise we’d all top ourselves
Keep on truckin’, Buddy. All the best…
Take care of yourself Darrell and I hope you get good results from your tests. Wishing you good health for the coming year and beyond!
Thanks for the update! I’ll keep my fingers crossed that everything turns into the right direction . All the best, Darrell
!
Take care Darrel, hoping for good news!
In Life you have to be positive , but not when it comes to medical tests
Take care , I hope well hear good news from you soon
Darrell, glad to hear that you are past the COVID symptoms, but sorry for the complications. I hope you get good news and a plan of therapy to get you back to wellness quickly.
Thanks again to everyone who has supported me through this difficult time, I am now aware of what’s going on.
I have both types of antibodies in my system rather than one or the other, I half expect it to be honest. It means that I have Fibromyalgia (which was already diagnosed) and Chronic Lyme’s disease. A bit of a double whammy, at the moment I am not too bad but nowhere near what I have been while I was in remission. I’m told it’s just going to be like that from now on. It will be the case of finding out which antibody suppression drugs work best, i.e. with the least side effects.
I’ve just turned 73 so am making the best of my life from now on, it’s going to be a “get that bucket list done” time from now on!
I don’t want sympathy from everyone, just celebrate what I’ve done while I was able to. I will pop in from time to time but I don’t know how long it’s going to be before I can play to a reasonable standard again as yet, my body feels like it’s fighting itself and I twitch and have occasional strong involuntary movement mostly in my legs. I have been trying to play but at the moment I can’t really play for more than a few minutes at a time.
I hope things will improve when my meds are sorted out and things are more stable, but that remains to be seen.
Wishing you all the best Darrell. Hopefully once the meds get sorted and settle down you can assess you capabilities and plan from there on. Look after yourself and yeah, stay in touch !
Oh no I am so sorry you are going through all this. I had no idea. I really enjoy your posts and I know that I am going to miss them during your brief absence. Judging from the outpouring of concerns and support you have gotten I am not alone. Lots of friends here. Please keep your head up, stand tall (as long as it does not hurt too much) Most importantly keep a possitive outlook. I know its easier said than done.
All the best Darrell and I hope the meds do their job and life settles down for you soon!
Thanks @TheMadman_tobyjenner @Ontime @Eddie_09 at least I know what is wrong now and more to the point it’s not the big C!
I have started to feel calmer now so it’s not stressful anymore, it’s the uncertainty that was really bothering me as much as how poorly I felt.
I’m definitely going to pop in regularly, but won’t have much to post other than funnies or what I’ve been watching music wise!
I’ll get your room ready
thanks buddy!
Take care sir! If you need a lift to go to Brian’s I’ll pick you up . Need to assess the quality of his b&b service
Thanks, haha, problem is travel and me don’t mix very well at the moment…… however if things were different…………………
Hey Darrell. I’m sorry to just now hear of your illness. I’m happy though that you have found out what’s going on and can now find the meds to help you improve. I hope you feel much better soon.
Thank you Pam, yeah it’s been tough but it’s going to get better!
Wishing you all the best Daryl and that the doctors can sort out the right meds for you quickly.
