I am a mum and wife to a lovely caring family. Iβve suffered with chronic back pain for over 30 years and started writing my first blog in 2007 which covered back and chronic pain. Since then I have written many more blogs for myself and customers. I find it takes me away from my pain to another place. I love it so much I think it should be part of a recovery process after illness or surgery. I hope you enjoy reading through my blogs.

Get mine done every time I go to the doctor. Mine is in a pretty good state. I also have an extra heartbeat which keeps them on their toes.

Gosh an extra heartbeat does that mean you jump when it happens? Mine was always superb until the stress of day last year when they put me on the lowest dose to keep it balanced. It’s fine now but am still on a very low dose drug to keep it that way as she explained that if stress causes it you need to take them all the time as no-one knows when stress can arise.
