I should be at the hospital now but I got a phone call this morning asking if I could make it at 2:30 instead as the doctor was running late. I stopped taking my osteoporosis medication before I went on holiday because I was having awful side effects. My GP said that he would contact the hospital to ask if I needed to take medication or if I could get away without taking any. There was a message from the hospital doctor on the answerphone when we got home and she said that I definitely needed to take something and she would discuss the options with me today. I've been gardening this morning and have come upstairs to have a rest before setting off.

I'm back on one of the tablets that I'd stopped taking - we're hoping that it's the calcium ones that are causing me the bother so I'm staying off those. She's going to ring me in ten weeks so I have to monitor whether I have any side effects. I also have to drink lots of milk, at the minute I drink less than half a pint today! I have to eat more yoghurt and green vegetables. We called in to Tesco on the way home and I bought a ship load of yoghurt. I love it anyway but had got out of the way of eating it when Tim left home. I stopped buying it for myself, Eric hates it and calls it sour milk.
