I' m back, I have been in hospital.

Hello

The last few weeks I have been in hospital, and have been putting posts on my Facebook page, of things I have learnt I hope they help you.

First of all, for ages I have had kidney pain, and I put it down to ME, because you get pain with ME right? I was so wrong, I ended up having major kidney surgery on both kidneys, because neither were functioning, as they should, and my urethra was blocked, I was in serious trouble help wise, and if I had not been rescued by my neighbour, I would be dead by now.

Anyway, here are tips, I put on my Facebook page, I hope they help you.

I am writing this post from my hospital bed. What I have to say is very important. For years I have had severe kidney pain, but I put it down to me. It wasn't, I ended up in with having major, kidney and bladder operation, so please go to the doc with any new or current symptoms, it might no be Me.

I had a letter from the dwp asking to do a home assessment, dad called to say that I was currently in hospital, and do not know when I am coming out so they have postponed it, so if you can't do it, get someone to let them know.

Another tip from bring in hospital

If you take supplements, always check with your doctor, before buying, they may clash with your current medication, and make you worse, if what you are taking doesn't suit, ask them to recommend, an alternative, either on prescription or otherwise. I have now dumped all my supplements.

Hope it helps.

Another tip, this one helps aid digestion, do check with your doctor before doing this, I don't want to clash with your other medication.

Put 10ml of peppermint oil in 200ml of hot water, and drink after your meal.

I got this from one gut specialist at the hospital.

Hope it helps.

I have just read in take a break, that rest less leg syndrome, can be because your iron levels are low, you can increase this by eating more greens.

That’s it, I hope they help.
