I know due to a subsequent medical discussion out of earshot of the medical person who lied to me.
I can’t prove it to the level of evidence required in an enquiry.
Anyway, enough of that.
I’m on no caffeine today - grrr. Slightly upset tummy - so… Sauerkraut, yoghurt, baked chicken, coconut water, bananas, oat milk… but none of my favourite vegetables, most dairy a big no, no berries, no chocolate! It might need to be for 2 or 3 days. This is cruel.

Springyzone, yes, medical staff do sometimes forget to include the patient in discussions. It’s so good that you sought to make sure your brother was involved and informed.
Second-guessing yourself after making a decision re the catheter is a cat chasing its own tail, though… You know that. You did the very best you could. I’m sure that every decision you made was out of love.
That’s sometimes all we can do.

Again - with respect - that should have been enough - the medical discussion with another.
But - enough.

Aaaagh! Even silver needles tea contains caffeine!
If don’t want peppermint tea and I hate chamomile tea… I’m feeling a bit cranky.
Time for chicken soup.

Ok - now this is a weird one.
For quite some time now the ' perfume ' I wore for years was discontinued - had enough to tide me over.
Now looking for a new one - I like as much.
I have now purchased 3 different perfumes - thinking each time - well that was an expensive bottle of water - the last ' Bloom ' by Gucci.
I cannot smell any of them - it seems I have lost my sense of smell. lol
We experienced nearly 2 months of dirt & dust from the construction next door - for which we were reimbursed for cleaning - but - at the time it didn't occur to me - the health side effects of this continual dust.
Any ideas. ??

I have looked at so many.
This really is of no help - thank you.
I have Mint growing - I have pungent Basil.
I still have taste but no sense of smell.
And smell - is a taste.
Have a Dr appointment next week will discuss it with him.

Thank you re Rooibos tea suggestion.
Mind you, I’m hoping this will be over soon so that can get back to my French Earl Grey and my Sulawesi coffee!
I ordered English Breakfast decaffeinated tea as a quick fix; it isn’t the most wonderful tea but let me be grateful for small mercies.

A few years ago, I went to a tea tasting/blending class and apparently rooibos is really high in anti oxidants, so one of the best ones to drink. So we were told.
