Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

Sending you my support. It is so difficult when so called experts either seem indifferent, don't understand the full impact that something is having on your life or believe in their own job title!

Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

Hi Elsa

Well. eventually we persuaded Mr M to go see Psychiatrist yesterday, but to be honest bit of a waste of time. Didn't tell us anything we didn't already know and basically said will incerase antidepressant keep taking medication see you in July.

Back to the drawing board it seems.

Hopefully to see motility specialist soon. Been waiting for months for new appointment as last appointment we had she was over 2 hours late so eventually we left and went home and seemingly she was angry we left after waiting 2 hours,(Mr M by this time was in total agony having to sit all this time) when nurse told us she would be approx another 30mins. She was then refusing to see Mr M again until our GP told her exactly what she thought.

Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

Dear me, bless him, sounds as if your poor hubby needs a complete meds review as the side effects could be conflicting and causing some of the symptoms. Sometimes different specialists look after their own side of things without taking a holistic view, sad to say.
The painkillers are codeine based which will cause constipation. Maybe with backup bloating under his ribs causing pain? Is he on something like lactulose to counteract the constipation? Has he been checked for gallstones? Gabapentin can also cause stomach pain. Sounds as if the Mirtazipine isn't right for him. Lets hope the psychiatrist can suggest something better, or at least less inclined to increase appetite and weight in view of his mobility problems.
How supportive is your GP Miss M? Maybe he could be the one to step back and look at the whole picture?
It must be so difficult for you too coping with all this.

Good Morning Elsa

You never said a truer word each specialist are only concerned about the ailment they specialise in they don't seem to care if any nedication has an adverse effect in other areas.

They took Gallbladder out 18 months ago but no difference he goes beteewn constpation and diarrhea constanly which cause him horrendous pain. This pain combined with the back.spinal pain is unbearable for him. Spends most of his time lying down,

GP exceptionally supportive but it seems to be the hospital consultants that are the problem. Gp is at her wits end and due to complications in several areas she has several words with consultants at hospital, but they just don't care.

He went in for a Sleep test about 6 months ago, however they couldn't follow it through due to the level of pain he was having that night so phoned me to come and get him at Midnight (remebering he had only been there since 9pm) we received a report from them last week to say he had sone sleep problems but not sure what (how could they come to this diagnosis when they only had him in bed for approx 1.5 hours, total waste of time and money.

ANyway enough of my ranting getting ready to go see psychiatrist at 10am (thats if he will go, as this morning is not a good one for him).

Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

I'm thinking of Mr M too and hope he gets the help he needs on Thursday

Hi IF

Many thanks for your kind thoughts thats is what makes this fourm/site so special.

It's a fine line between pain and depression, each makes the other worse. What painkillers is he on? Is he already on antidepressants too? And how are YOU? xxx

Hi Elsa


Yes...doctors have said exactly what you have said about being a fine line between Pain and Depression each one intensifies the other.

He has been on one hell of a concoction of pain killers and anti depressants over the years.

Just now on :
Oxycodine/Oxycodone, Bachlofen, Gabapentin (for Pain). To help cope with back/spinal pain (Had 3 different surgeries performed none successful)

Diazepam (To help him sleep).

Mirtazapine (for depression which over the past 3 years this has increased his weight no end, been trying to get him off it for months now before it causes him to have a heart attack due to the excessive weight gain. They say they are at the end of the line with anti depressants as over the years he has had so many - many that does not agree with him.

Few other medications for stomach and bowel trouble which is all down to all the different medication he has had over over the years. It has slowed his bowel/colon down so as soon as he eats something it gets stuck near gallbladder area causing him extreme pain in kidney and side area. Also having poor Mobility doesn't help his bowels.

Good Morning Elsa

Your just a little angel. Always thinking of other people.

Unfortunately Mr M not good doesn't seem to be getting any pain relief which is causing the depression to intensify. Waiting to see new Phyciatrist on Thurday.

Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

virgin allow you a couple of months to change e-mail addresses I took 3 months

Thanks TTC wasn't quite sure if they would just disconnect emals on same day as contract ending.

Half way down your member page, go to your account, then on left hand side there is the option to edit settings and towards the bottom on the left you can change your email address. It works!

Many thanks cymruambth wasn;t sure if there was a security issue on changing email addresses.

Cheers Niddy for the link you know me to well. I am a complete dunderheid around technology I can't seem to store anything in this old brain of mine seems all the brains pigeon holes are filled up, as soon as I learn something new the next day its all forgotton.

if you've already replied / sent it ignore this but generally no, you would leave it there

Haven't sent reply yet as Mr M been really unwell with one thing and another. and basically didn't want to do the wrong thing and cock up all your good work. Will I still send this reply even although its been about 4 weeks since I recieved the CCA copy. Not heard a peep from them since they sent the CCA copy.

[Never-In-Doubt]

Re: Miss Muddle's UE Diary

Cheers Niddy for casting your expert eye over this CCA and declaring it We knew if anybody could find something wrong on this CCA , you could. To think for the past 3 years we always thought this was enforceable as when we were on CAG they deemed it enforceable and to be honest AK never bothered us so it never occured to ask Niddy to have a peek at this, but just recently Aktiv Kapital have raised their ugly heads again.

Niddy advised to send Missing Terms letter. but....not sure if I should delete section 2. stating:

The Consumer Credit (Cancellation Notices and Copies of Documents) Regulations 1983 (SI/1557) states: 2: Legibility of notices and copy documents and wording of prescribed Forms..

As the CCA was legible but missing main terms do I delete this and enter something else in or leave as letter stands.

Sorry for being a total dunderheid,

if you've already replied / sent it ignore this but generally no, you would leave it there
