Dot, I do feel your pain, my dear. Amazing how the fancier the doc, the lazier they are with diagnosis. Could be a result of you being born too. They seem happy to blame the probs on historical events, rather than try to find something that will be helpful. Keep cuddling Brian, you'll be right mate xxxx
Tanks, lovely to see your name back on the pages. Enjoy your fancy meals too, sounds like a great way to go.
The rain has been incessant, so I don't think poor Shirley will be out on the greens yet. Not only is it pissing down constantly but there are icebergs in the air too. It's so cold that I have put the electric blanket on the bed to warm up my tootsies.
Tomorrow we head up the road to Swansea to set up our stall for the weekend. It will be interesting to be in the upstairs showroom, which used to be a posh restaurant. The club has made the downstairs eatery much bigger, sells expensive nice food and they no longer have a super fancy eating place. If we get enough blue skies, the views should be spectacular from upstairs. It overlooks Swansea channel and the old singing bridge. As it is an opening bridge, we will have to check each hour to see if it has opened for sailors to cross into the lake. It's interesting how they do that. The sailors have to pre-book their entrance or departure and must be in the wait zone for twenty minutes before the allotted hour. If the harbour master can see you or chat on the radio, the bridge will get opened right on the o'clock.
Hope you lot get some good rain soon,

It took something like 7 yrs or more, for a rehab specialist to diagnose the insane migraine headaches were the result of damaged neck vertebrae pinching the nerves that operate the neck muscles ..... these muscles were tensing and pulling the vertebrae together till they had ground into one another causing spurs to form and these were attacking the pain nerves that run parallel with the control muscles and this was the cause of the headaches that had progressively got worse over the yrs since the motor vehicle accident ......
Half the relief was knowing the cause, it wasn't a head injury or brain injury causing the pain, but a neck injury pinching the nerves ......
There is no reason it isn't the same thing with Dottie, I know people who were wobbling on crutches when visiting a bone cruncher or in another case, an old Chinese "doctor" who walked back out carrying their crutches, smiling and pain free.
The Chinese fella had a technique where he would insert long needles in-between vertebrae in the lower back, till he found the nerve causing the pain ..... I haven't witnessed it, but one of the sufferers told me he cut into his back with a blade so fine and narrow, he couldn't see it side on, the pain was instantly gone and all he ended up with was one of those small round Band-Aids you get after an injection ......
