I can't even imagine how hard that is for you Hon - and to have to move so far for this to happen must only be adding to how difficult this is for you @Faith-and-Hope
I'll leave this image for you to take with you as you travel today - maybe one day you can see it for yourself sweetheart

Well you can cross off most of the state - too far to travel !!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is one of the most beautiful (and easily accessible/dog friendly) beaches in the southern part of the state. Toby absolutely loves it. He jumps out of the car as soon as we get there and runs off to find any playmates (dogs and/or people). He will occasionally stop and look back just to make sure I am still there, then off he runs again. He is such a good boy though - when we return to the carpark he sits while he gets washed and then I wrap him in his towel and he sleeps on the front seat (HIS seat) all the way home.
He is such a little cherub @Faith-and-Hope

Hi @Faith-and-Hope I made it safely to my GP and back home. I have been really tired since but that is no surprise because I am still tired all the time. My latest test results came back ok but she has ordered some new ones. She also did some research herself on my meds and it seems likely that one of them is adding to the physical symptoms - a small percentage of people have side effects and it seems I may be in that category. It is a bit hard to tell because I have been so unwell lately but it could be a combination of side effects from the meds and that being compounded by my physical illnesses as well. Just my luck that I would be in the minority that have such side effects. It really doesn;t surprise me though as I had alot of side effects from porevious meds we tried. It is very likely that with the gradual increase in doses of some of my meds over the last couple of months has also increased the side effects. We aren't going to change anything just yet - which is not ideal - but the alternative is decreasing the dosages which could also adversely affect my mood etc. even more. I do feel like this is the best option atm but I am still not in a good place and still worried about keeping myself safe when I everything gets on top of me.
I do hope that you have arrived safely and are ok. Will hopefully chat to you tomorrow but at this stage I can't promise that as I am really struggling with exhaustion and pain - and just need to get through tonight - as usual - the best I can and get to tomorrow.
Love you Hon
