I was going to a clinic, but they could only advise on taking it easy, really. I've tried a few different suggestions like antihistamines, but nothing works yet.
I've read a lot of positive news on it recently, though, so hopefully they'll find some treatment.

It might be worth going back to your GP see if they can offer something else, I think they have anti viral drugs all ready. It usually takes a consultant to find which part of your body isn’t functioning and causing such a dramatic change in your fifties.

It’s not moaning if you post how you feel you want to get well again. :) show the GP those pictures. And keep up the good work in the garden.

There needs to be more money spent on research into curing people, because prevention of disease doesn’t help once you acquire a life limiting illness like you have Mark. A bit like Kaz when you’ve had things like sepsis it takes time, possibly a long time x
 
Looked at the use of Flow headsets for some people and seems some positivity re its effectiveness from the NHS. Has anyone any knowledge of anyone using them

Thought I'd post this, even though I f'kin HATE Piers Morgan

This is about Flintoff's battle with his mental health and whilst he's not the best at articulating, he says some REALLY poignant important things.

And, besides that, it's Flintoff and it's worth a listen/ watch.

It’s a really honest interview with Freddie. Piers briefly mentioned Ricky Hatton, Ricky’s manager said Ricky “was in a good place he will never believe he intended to kill himself, he had tickets to take his daughter to the Oasis concert and was in contact with his mother. A trip to Australia was planned”

Do you ever call 111? I'd call them and see what they say.
 
A few nights ago i had a ptsd breakdown, long story short 111 and the crisis team were wonderful, they gave me the option to go into hospital but i cant face that so i stayed at home and spent the rest of the night in the garden in the dark so i couldnt fall asleep. The crisis team rang me again in the morning and said at the moment i cannot get emotional about things i cant control, i was raging inside about treatment of the palistians people and it was too much for my mental health

I have been on the list for cbt for six months now, that is what i need badly

I am disappointed that nearly nine months into recovery i am still feeling this way, i still have so many problems from the collapse, mind and body

Getting back to the football seems further away than ever, it is stressful being a city fan as we all know but once a blue always a blue !

Much love xxx

All the best to you, but don't get your hopes up about the cbt, I did it a couple of months ago and it was just a waste of my time. I thought it would really help and had requested it. Probably just me but it felt like I was talking to someone who had just finished a 2 week course and was reading a script.

Thanks, i self referred for the cbt on the app and i had an hour assessment on the phone, a lot of it was box ticking though, she accepted me for the cbt but did say it was months not weeks to start it. I found the long session i had with the critical care shrink a god send as i was mega confused snd still in shock at that stage. I was hoping to not need any more of that now but it seems i do! I will give it a go and see what happens

I hope you are doing ok ?
