Nasty situation. I hope they see sense soon.

That sounds awful. Does it badly affect your ability to sign?

I'm finally in bed after a long painful day. Trying to get into sleep mode while my partner's cat attacks my feet through the duvet :)

Wow. That's scary. I'm glad he is understanding. It must be difficult for you both. I don't know much about Parkinson's but it sounds awful. How did you find out you had it?

I don't often talk to strangers. If I have to I tell them I'm HoH. I'm trying to get a speech generating device so if I get that it will be easier. I can speak but I don't like to because it takes a lot of effort to speak clearly due to autism and conditions that affect my muscles.

If I had a child I would not care what colour it is. Imagine how psychologically damaged the child would grow up with the parents complaining like that.

That's horrific. My dreams are no better :(

Thanks. That's a very good idea to write things down. Years ago I spent 3 weeks in hospital after my ex's friend gave me bags of grapefruits from her trees and I had grapefruit juice several times a day without knowing it would stop one of my medications working. We only figured it out because...

Wow I didn't know that. I get several bad nightmares every night. Some nights it's as often as every hour and I end up giving up on sleep and skyping the rest of the night until my partner wakes up. Maybe pred is the culprit.

Congrats!!!

Thanks. Yeah I've heard it can even cause psychosis. I'm lucky I have an understanding partner who puts up with my grumpiness and doesn't bitch back at me lol.

I'm feeling depressed and annoyed but I don't know why. Prednisolone side effects and pain I guess. I'm looking forward to starting Auslan classes on the 30th though :)

I'm glad you're improving. I hope you'll be back to your usual self soon.

That sounds awful. I hope it eases up soon.

I've done that twice but thankfully they were ok although I had to get new speakers.

Thanks. Me too! How are you doing now?

Thanks :) Yeah steroids are wonderful in some ways. The longest I've been on pred is 3 years straight and have been on and off it all my life. I've got brittle asthma, severe eczema, arthritis and ulcerative colitis (which I've had chemo for in the past) so if I'm not on pred for one thing I...

Sorry to hear you folks are going through so much. I hope things improve soon. Myself I'm having trouble breathing despite frequent nebuliser treatments, inhalers, injections and a ton of oral meds including weeks of high dose steroids. I'm resisting going to hospital tonight because we'll be...

Happy birthday :)

Hi there :) Are you deaf or hard of hearing? Tell us some about yourself. I'm always up for chatting with new people so feel free to send me a message if you want my Skype or Glide etc. I'm hard of hearing and losing more of my hearing steadily. I'm learning Auslan as I know I will need it...
