Re: I've had my chest x-ray

I'm eating some more snacks although a full meal is too much for me. The biopsy bandage is off now and the wound looks OK but still a bit sore.

I just wish I had a bit more energy.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

At least the bandage is off. It will be sore for a while, just be careful. x
Your energy levels will increase as you eat more.
Dreamy you have been through hell and back, it will take a little time, but you will get there. xxxx

Sweetie Pie's right, Ffosse. Your body is lacking it's quota of vitamins and nitrients. I know it's not easy but try to get a balanced diet if you can. It doesn't mean eating a lot, just the correct foods - protein, carbs, etc.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Part of the problem is my lack of appetite, too.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

That should return in time Dreamy.
Good Morning, my hubby got rushed to hospital at 3am this morning.
I am just waiting to collect him.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Sweetie, I hope he's OK.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

He is fine, it was a severe allergy to Blueberries.

You were up very early Dreamy.
How are you today?

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Dreamy I am worried about you again.
I hope all is well.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

It 's good to know you are on the mend from your biopsy. I am with Floydy and others in saying that giving your body the fuel it needs to fight back and give you more energy is key.

Has your fever subsided?

One of the best ways to break the cycle of being awake at night is to force yourself to do a little walking, inside or out, the minute you get the sleepy temptation to nap during the day. Another help, is to try to limit your naps to no more than 30 minutes, by setting an alarm. I realize it's a tricky balance, but it might help.

Any good podcasts you recommend?

If you don't feel like eating make some smoothies from scratch. A base of banana, milk and yoghurt with fruits like kiwi or blueberry and veggies like kale, carrot or celery and some grain protein and ginger should give you some nutrients without having to eat a physical meal. You can put pretty much anything in even peanut butter or cashews and sip every so often.
