He's probably having his casual racism removed at last.
But he woodn't be the same without it
Good - and bad - news on the test front, Jumble. Knowing what it is gives you some place to start but it's probably not making you feel wonderful right now. I hope the appointment comes through quickly though; nothing worse than waiting for these things. Glad the doc's name gave you a little smile. I have no idea what my GP's first name is... probably "Liability" now I think about it.
Er......... I guess knowing what some of it is helps, although it wasn't really unexpected. Not knowing the other part wood be a worry if I was inclined to worry, which I'm not going to until there's something definite to worry about I'm past the panic/stress/depression/denial stages and have reached the oh well/whatever stage. The Chevron week-end taught me that yes, it hurts, and yes, I was exhausted, but it won't stop me doing the things I want to do as long as I don't let it

True, but I hope it does help
Good to hear you have adopted the "stuff you" attitude towards it. Life is for getting on with, IMO. if you can find a way to enjoy it and deal with the pain from time to time then I say go for it and enjoy what you can while you can. As for the other thing... I think you're right not to worry overly. There's so many freaky deaky things floating about in our bodies that who knows what damage they are or are not doing. it might be nothing or it might be something that's not important. I have a weird antigen in my blood that nobody's every adequately explained to me but may well be a contributing factor to my inability to get and stay pregnant - along with other factors - and hence why I ended up having to be immune suppressed to have Benjabubs. In normal every day life it's just a thing that's there but became important for a short period of my life. Hopefully whatever they find with yours is something mostly benign... and if not, something they can treat/deal with.
I have heard that RA is prone to flare ups; I think that thing you said about your immune system being a bit lowered might be something; perhaps it's your body's way of saying "look after me and treat yourself".
You're right about Philip; I wouldn't like he half as much if not for the hilarity of his comments.
I was going to put the pool up today but West London is not playing nice on the weather side. It's supposed to be warm, sunny and 22 degrees today. Really?
Jumble - I love the 'stuff you' approach to life. It helps lots. I'm glad you did have a great weekend despite the pain. I adore all the photos, but I especially giggle when I see Martindoll getting squished in favour of the handsome Dan Payne.
I couldn't remember my photobucket password and for some reason, recovering it wouldn't work either. So, since I got fed up with pb anyway, I'm gonna share my pictures through this instead.

Yep, 'stuff it' is exactly how I feel right now and I'm having a much better day

Yep, that's who he is

Seems to me that every time you plan on putting up your pool the weather changes for the worst
It's funny, but since meeting David Hewlett last week, using the smiley feels different Kind of, more familiar?

I think 'stuff you' is the only way to deal with it
In my defense, Martindoll was initially completely squished by Dan's arm, but I pulled him out just as the camera clicked - otherwise all we wood have seen of him wood have been his legs But I do love that I got the two-armed hug from Dan

Jumble - It may be an expensive meal - but still a very good one! Let me know when you get there and I'll drive up to join you.
Oh and you will all be glad to know - I'm heading to the doctor's today for something to help with the cough. I know my cold routines and all though this is one of the really bad ones it is going away. But the cough is the worse I've had since I was a kid! (Hmmmm second childhood??? thought it was a mental thing not a cough thing!
Jumble - I am really sorry to hear about your med problem. My grandfather had that - one of the few things I apparently didn't inherit from my family.... however they gave me enough things to deal with! You do have the right attitude and there are so many more meds these days. As for that other thing floating around in your blood - I know you are way to ornery to let it get to you! So you have the right idea about it!

I wish There is so much more of Vancouver that I'd like to see - seemed the last trip was way too short.

Good! Let's hope the doc can sort you out

Well off to the doctor's for some meds!
Don't really see what else I can do, except give in, and I don't think I even know how to do that
Besides, I need to stay upright at least until next April - don't want to literally fall at Martin's feet do I?
Just been chatting with Sammie on FB - she's going to the LFCC next month so we'll get to see her *bounces* Didn't realise how close it was - only four weeks

Hey again, Jumble just told me (on Facebook) that you are going to be at LFCC next month. I can't wait to meet you again.
*hugs*
EDIT: Oh, I didn't see the post from you, Jumble
Yay, hello Sammie. Quite a lot of people I know are going. Well it's a tenner huh, may as well. I may or may not be getting additional autos/photos depending on finances.
I must admit, I wrote it on the calender this morning and thought only a month away.
