You have my sympathies mate. I only have a little on buttered toast but there are times when only that will do.

Just been looking at various lists of high phosphate foods and suggested 'alternatives' - it doesn't make easy reading does it. :erm:

Well no, but looking on the bright side they do tell me I can have what I want when I'm on the dialyses machine so every cloud and all that :)

I got even more appointments for next week in the post today - in all four days the hospital is open and four separate appointments next Friday.

I am busier now than when I was working.

Oh and I caught a cold which is turning nasty so I'm not even sure I'll get home tomorrow when I've been to clinic.

Well that's some comfort I suppose - gonna have a Marmite fest are you? ;)

Sympathies on all the hospital visits - we have several coming up (starting tomorrow) for Osem Jnr #2 and I've still got some investigations pending which I'm not looking forward to. C'est la vie eh?...

Anyway, best of luck as always Dilli . :tu:

Thank you everybody for your kind wishes.
