    Default Out of service for a while

    Sorry, I haven't been on for a while but illness has not been kind to me. I was looking forward to the WW Show and working in the Forum display but ended up with what I thought was a stomach bug and couldn't make it. Turns out it is a little more serious but hopefully not that bad. It has just meant more often trips to the doctors to get it sorted out and in true medical style it is still being worked out. I managed to top it off with a nerve injury to my back. Sh#@ happens I suppose when you begin to age. It certainly isn't the same as just having to suffer through a hang-over when young and then going out again the next night. That's life

    Thanks everyone. I was supposed to go to my doctor for the result of the tests and what happened? The doctor was involved in a car accident and is now in hospital with a broken leg. Still, I went to a chinese medicine centre with another problem, a bad back, and Master Chen fixed it with massage and acupuncture. Brilliant. Oddly he also said - you have problem in stomach just by looking at me. He said, When doctor cant fix you come back to me and I fix straight away. I might send him to the hospital to fix my doctors leg

    lol - Cliff. I am moving more towards this Chinese medicine every day without being a fanatic. From what I have seen it works. This guy is a 5th generation chinese medicine practitioner and has the title Master rather than Doctor. He said he can cure anything, including cancer. That might be a cause for concern but who knows, he fixed me up when the doctor was working on my back for thre last 3 years and achieved absolutely nothing

    What we round eyes tend to overlook, is that these guy's have been working well with issues of the human body a hell of a lot longer than our modern day Doc's.
    A lot of the times they have answers to our health problems whereas modern medicine flounders.

    Best wishes on your recovery back to a full & enjoyable envigorated life.

    Cheers
