Yesh! I do love the wholegrain ones though, and prefer them. I think the only one I haven't had now is the mango and papaya one.

Just general muscular aching from giving it beans over the bath, and sucks for me that I'm a snob and had to buy big fluffy towels cos they will take about 7 years to dry! I have to laugh though, it's been an education and I expect to wake up tomorrow with arms like the hulk!

I WANT A CHEESEBURGER FROM BURGER KING!! I'm cravvvvvingggggg it!!!!!!! Ha!!! Now I want one, damn you!!!!! I am going to be the 'topic' of a meeting tomorrow in work! Basically to discuss my sickness and how to move forward etc. :@ So I'm treating this as a positive thing and wrote a long email about what is actually wrong with me, how I'm managing it and how I think 'we' can move forward together. I stayed late this evening and am trying to be accommodating whilst not being a pushover. I'm hoping that firstly, I'll be able to knock my sick days on the head, and secondly, they will work with me so I can put in extra during the parts of the month that I'm good. I also have a meeting with an employment solicitor friend to go through all this and hopefully he can give me some tips. Not a huge bitch, but still very frustrating!!!

That's very frustrating! Wishing you the best of luck and that it didn't even have to be like this but you sound like you've got it as much under control as you can do. I found out the solicitor pal in work has Crohn's and he knows enough about DDA that he went and got advice from the senior partner of the firm he was working with, and that I shouldn't be having to give in sick notes at all. If you can get a letter from your doc to say you've been suffering with a chronic and as yet undiagnosed condition for 12 months or more, I think you're set in terms of disability and thereafter they need to treat you with kid gloves. Or with as much respect and dignity as your moron employers can muster!

Well, I am going to go to my GP soon and see if I can get a letter from there, if not I will try to from the doc at the hospital. Can't see it being easy, but definitely have to try!

Well it's only a statement of fact you're not asking for the earth, so really they had better hop to it!
I'm having some reverse of a period. Ridiculously tired to the point that I desperately needed the last 4 nights of 12 hour sleeps, ratty and horny today and just lady pain-ing. Lucky for me (not) my sister is seemingly having some post-period syndrome too. Her scowl could boil water.

Gem I am being deadly serious haha! I was hand washing things that I'd rather not be taking to the launderette and felt peckish. 'Can you make the dinner please Nat' She turned her head slowly and stared me out 'What?!'
