Various suggestions have been put forward the latest being a mild (bacterial) form of Meningitis or possibly Encephalitis or possibly even galloping lurgy. she is getting serious cheesed off and a few words from you good people may brighten her spirits a tad. Yet another consultant is due to see her today so watch this space ........... Cheers Raggytash |

11 May 06 - 07:44 AM (#1737900) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: GUEST,The black belt caterpillar wrestler Well I woke up on Sunday morning shiverring violently for a couple of hours without apparently having a temperature, which kept me off work 'til yesterday, but I wouldn't expect to have caught it from her at a distance of six feet on friday night (we were on the other side of the entrance doors to the sing-around). Hope she's better soon. |

12 May 06 - 10:45 AM (#1739002) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: John MacKenzie Oh dear I am sorry to hear that, the waiting is the worst part sometimes. Still on the whole hospitals are VG these days, and the one that I was in a couple of weeks ago was great, nice folks. Chin up Wombat. Giok |

12 May 06 - 11:27 AM (#1739044) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: catspaw49 Ya' know Rag, I have had a lot of time with Docs over the past ten years and I have begun to fear that "Ologist" thing. At various times I have had a proctologist, a urologist, and a gastro-enterologist, all of whom wanted to look up my ass right away! Based on my experience, I'd tell Wombat to watch her ass. Even a neurologist can probably think of some reason for you to take it in the end! My best to you both in any case!!! Spaw |

15 May 06 - 01:41 PM (#1741054) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: Raggytash Very pleased to report that Wombat has been released from incarceration at Huddersfield Royal and is soundly sleeping at home. Condition still undiagnosed ........erm Viral infection of the lining of the brain perhaps........ has even lessened my already fairly low opinion of some in the medical profession. Off work for at least another week and still can't walk straight, but at least she is home. Thanks to those of you who wrote kind notes, they cheere Wombat up considerably when I took them in the hospital last week Cheers Nick |

15 May 06 - 02:27 PM (#1741092) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: John MacKenzie Directional probs can mean inner ear problems. Glad to hear she's back home. Being home makes you feel 100% better immediately, it's by far my favourite remedy. Giok |

24 May 06 - 09:37 AM (#1746465) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: GUEST,Raggytash Sad to report that Wombat has been re-admitted to hospital, she took ill again whilst "recuperating" at our caravan in Whitby, she is now ensconced in Scarborough General Hospital awaiting further tests and an MRI scan to try and diagnose what is wrong with her |

24 May 06 - 01:38 PM (#1746658) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: Rapparee Tell her to knock it off and get outa there. That'll do it. Hospitals are really bad places. You have to associate with a bunch of sick people, they wake you up at ungodly hours, give you terrible clothes, stick you with needles, feed you bad food, usually don't provide beer, and then they charge you a lot of money. Tell her to get outa there right away. |

24 May 06 - 04:45 PM (#1746818) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: katlaughing Sorry I didn't look in here sooner, Raggy. Please pass on my good wishes for an end to the mystery and speedy easy recovery from whatever it is. Spaw's advice was spot on, too! Last year, before they would do heart surgery, they had to satisfy themselves that I wasn't bleeding internally, somewhere. Over five months, I had every kind of poke and prod you can think of with no answers, except "No, not that...next?!" Eventually, they decided everything was okay for surgery and away we went. All the best to you both, kat |

02 Jun 06 - 09:22 AM (#1751643) Subject: RE: Wombat Poorly From: GUEST,Raggytash After screaming at our GP twice this week Wombat has finally seen a Neurology specialist at the hospital. Although not recovered at least she is happier with the information she was given and is a little more relaxed with the situation. She has been told the condition may last for some time but there is light at the end of the tunnel. More rest and relaxation is required and work is still out of the question for the immediate future (some may welcome this Wombat doesn't) Thanks for all your kind words of encouragement, they have helped us along the way Cheers Nick |
