miek Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Hello Miek, your avi makes me smile....in a nice way I mean. You look so cheery and happy.I'm fine but it's one of those days where "I can't be arsed with much". How is it in Holland today? Hi shari, I can relate to the "I can't be arsed with much"day. Have that almost every friday, I'm voting for the weekend to start on friday officially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shari Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I tried Gaviscon once Laurel. Someone gave me one at work when I was feeling a bit iffy. I felt twice as sick after taking it. I'll stick with my Rennie! Horrid feeling though isn't it, indigestion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miek Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 She is a friend now!! It was to help out after her hubby had a stroke -thats when I started going down - I had known her hubby for ages. Then he had a leg amputated - so had lots of trips to hospital, then he died when I was in Glasgow waiting to see Mika!! Hiya Miek How are you, and how is Micha doing? Hi Wendi, how are you? I'm ok. Went to the doctor today with Micha, it turns out that besides the concussion, he has a torn eardrum in his right ear. That gave me a shock. He must have fallen really hard. It ahs to heal on its self. Have to come back to check in a month. It explains why he's hard to reach, he just can't hear on his right ear!

miek Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Awww!!!! Poor wee soul!!! Give him a big from me - and have one yourself - bet you are exhausted!!! A bit yes, but the shock that he fell so hard hit me all over again. I hope that it will heal properly. Most of the time it does.

I went to see my friends new grandson - and got a phone call that the elderly gent had died!! I am obviously not good to be around!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll stick with my Rennie!Horrid feeling though isn't it, indigestion? I have Peppermint ones... really nice.... have to be careful myself with some of the flavoured medicines for things like this - cos' lemon or blackcurrant can make me sick too... just don't like the taste... my mum when she has Indigestion takes a cup of hot water... but that makes me throw up too I have such a weird stomach... Yeah the pain is really unbearable.... Thank god the tablets work though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamacatt Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The tear was from his fall, creepy thought Aw, the poor sweetie! ((Hugs)) from Auntie mamacatt. Hope he's feeling 100% soon. When kids have ear infections, the eardrum sometimes will rupture to allow the fluids to drain (they actually feel a lot of relief with this....I know it's not the case with Micha though). And they tend to heal up well afterwards. Did the doc suggest keeping his ear out of water while the drum heals up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendi Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Yes, wished I'd seen in earlier though. We are human - when our bairns hurt themselves we do what we think is right!! There is no-one who always gets it right - we can only do our best and love them!! I honestly think if my doctors had been a bit more sympathetic over the years I would have not felt so much of a fool on many occasions Having 5 bairns I have had my fair share of hospital/doctors visits!!!
