My Dr thinks it's the meds I'm on that is increasing my HR @Shaz51
I'm on quite a few for my MH.
She's just doing it just to make sure.
I hope you can get your heart tested soon.
Good news about the cyclone hon. Hopefully it didn't cause too much damage.

Thank you for those hugs @Shaz51 they made me smile big 😊
Glad the power came back!
Glad they've dissipated for your area @Snowie and you're keeping an eye on things!
Yeah for sure, I think there's a lot of complexity to the layers of emotions, plus almost this like... pressure kind of feeling to just 'keep on keeping on', despite the fact that you're watching a loved one fade away before your eyes. Feels so strange to miss someone, even when I'm in the same room as him 😞
Solidarity hugs for you my dear (づ ᴗ _ᴗ)づ♡
So rough @GezzaP spasms can be so scary too, which can increase anxiety and muscle tensions, which can then make them worse 😖 Hope you are able to have a more relaxing sleep tonight hun 🤞

I had several spasms in bed and while showering @Jynx . I’m in really bad pain, but managed to water garden which really needed it. It was a struggle. Now icing my back. Go back to chiro today if I can drive. Find out that when attempt to drive to shop. Can barely walk.

Hi @Shaz51
Went and got fitted this morning. Annoying but I'll cope. Only for 24hours.
Not doing that well. So be it.
How are you? Still muggy, hot and wet?

Good that the power hasn't gone out today @Shaz51 and you've got the air con on.
That's not good about your pot plants. Hopefully they don't die. From the pictures you've shared, you have an amazing garden.
