For fun and to learn some things about health aids I thought of a game.

Name an illness and one thing, a food, supplement, herb or drug that helps with it. Or at least that you know helps you.

ME/CFS - 5-HTP

      One thing at a time; you can add more later. That gives anyone who wants to space to just look up one thing at a time without too much pressure. razz

    I should've said anything that helps you, including complementary therapies or anything but please keep it to one thing at a time and you can add other things. The reason is so that we can look things up in a more relaxed way than having two or more things to look up in one go. Some of us are very exhausted!

      Chillow pads, wow never heard of them but they sound really interesting. Sometimes I flare up like a bonfire! Not as often now but sometimes. Do you use them?

      Ah just looked it up; I've found previously that I'm allergic to foam, the chemicals in it so I'll have to stick to my cool fan. Thanks for mentioning it though.

      I'm allergic to anything with gel too because I have MCS, multiple chemical sensitivities so everything in my home has to be natural and chemical free.

      Yeah! eek It's been hard work over the years eliminating man made chemicals from my life and finding natural substitutes for everything but it's been worth it.

      tough one ,

      not being funny just interested whats your crash helmet 

      made out of  .is it leather lined i thought most were foam lined  or am i behind the times

      Yes it's foam lined but it's utterly impossible to avoid everything that my body doesn't handle because I have to live in this world so I do my best, and suffer the things I have to.

      Like having carers coming into help with perfumes that give me headaches and nausia. What can I do? I take control of everything I can and put up with what I can't control. If you can find a crash helmit minus foam please let me know. cheesygrin

      Oh yes definitely and I wear glasses! lol I hope I have better taste in clothes though. eek

      I watched the first car share one but I haven't bothered watching any more because I didn't think it was that funny, does it get better?

      depends what you think is funny ,i think life is funny and thats why i liked car share because they were talking about daily stuff ,i struggled for the first half  

      of the programme because it was all set in a car .not a typical sitcome

      but once i got it ,i thought it was hilarious ,reminds me of many conversations i had with people one i would call it comic banter .

      this weeks one was excellant .they tried to avoid picking up a work collegue who worked on the fish counter its so human natrue .and the one last week where she insisted that dogging was getting together to walk dogs ,hysterical .

      I might struggle through some more of it then! It was tedious at first but then so is cracking an obstinate brazil nut but it's worth it in the end.
