You have such a beautiful voice, Sabine!
Hope the meds work soon and your comfort is restored![emoji173]️
Thank you Lena ! :<3:
Homöopathic meds need a little longer but I am sure they will help. Until I have to be brave .... LOL !
I take it funny although I am having pain. My pain is not to compare to what others have to suffer so I don` complain.:)

Thank you very much. I am right now heading to Bristol Virginia to the cancer center so that I can get the first dosage of my Stelara. I am really hoping that it starts helping me quickly because if it don't I'm going to end up having to have a surgery anyway. The ulcer beside my stoma has continued to grow and now has a pocket going back under the skin that is approximately 2" wide and an inch long. That does not count the exposed part that was already there. I'm using a steroid and antibiotic cream on it but so far it has showed no signs of healing. Also where it is connected to my stoma there is not a whole lot they can do with the wound care. My leg is still swollen about twice the size of my other leg around the ankle and up the calf due to the erythema and something else they said I had down there. I am wake and get winded easily. It makes it hard to work or do what I need to do around home. Also I was told today that I have an electrical issue in my heart that is showing up on my EKGs. So I will most likely need to go to a Cardiologist to get that looked at. I wonder if it could just be from where I've had all of these issues for so long as well as the anemia. I'm hoping that if I can start getting the rest turned around whatever this electrical issue with my heart is will resolve itself.

In good news the feeling on my right side has come back to about 80 to 90% in my right side.

Hugs from me too. At least there is some good news at the end there.

Good day all

Thought I would kick off the Summer Solstice with an early morning paddle. The water was perfectly still which helped create perfect reflections. Plenty of wildlife spotted, osprey, Blue Heron, white tail deer, bunches of turtles, a monster alligator snapping turtle, and many fish jumping.

Hello my lovely roommates.
Just popping in to say hello to everyone and wishing you all a wonderful Thursday.
I have some problems with the sores on my left leg coming from the shingles. It has gotten worse and I sometimes suffer pain, but I hope it will be better soon because I take some homöophatical meds.
That`s why I was reading but not posting. Sorry !
@DE42 Especially sorry for you Dan. I`ve read what you are going through. There are no words that are the right to say but I want to tell you like Yvonne already had: When you want to talk with us, we are here for you.

Sorry for you Carol too. I`ve missed your post when you`ve said that you want to hear "your" song.
But the next post it comes.

Thank you both Lyn and Lena for your kind words. @Lyn W & @Kristoff
Oh Sabine.
I am so sorry about your legs. I really hope the homeopathic meds do help.

Good afternoon all. I have been out with my bestie today.

We went for a walk in the glorious Kent sunshine

And then had afternoon tea

@Moozillion - a proper English afternoon tea, Bea... you can’t see the jam and clotted cream for the scones but there was plenty
That's an awful lot of food for just you and your bestie. Did you eat it all?

Good day all
