Migraine, meds and sleep. Didn't sleep well last night - no hubby - gone to his parents for two nights. I don't sleep well at the best of times but when he is working/away, that makes it worse.

Watched a bit of tv over lunch and then went back and had another doona day - I just can't get myself motivated. Even the footy game on channel 9 is not interesting me and I am here reading diaries and emails.

Had my dinner and watched some tv.

Did a load of washing last night and my poor towels are not doing very well. May have to buy some from the wishing well money from the wedding

For people thinking of getting a lap band, there was an article about it in the Q Weekend magazine in the Courier Mail 26-27/4/08 last Saturday for kids. It gives the names of doctors who do it and relevant information for those I think in Queensland - I haven't googled the doctors to see where they are but I am assuming they are Queensland doctors. Know it is wrong to assume but I have to because the magazine is in a Queensland newspaper. Perhaps you can get a copy of the article off the internet - www.thecouriermail.com.au and see if the article is there/they show the magazine.

Stock cubes - leaving that to hubby to find - I cannot be bothered/have the energy to even open the pantry door and look for them - means pulling things out and putting them back. He can do that when he gets home or I will get some liquid stock during the week and make some vege soup.

Take Care All!!!

PS Will take some meds and will go back to bed and watch the tv.

PS Has anyone heard of the 12 fish oil tablets and a/d working on depression - came from yesterday's Australia Story - am interested to know what people think. Lynda, why wasn't it working for your friend in hospital??

PS Have a headache and will go and take my meds to hopefully get rid of the headache. I had one prior to lunch and the two panafen plus and a sleep seemed to stop it but it is back again - not a migraine but a normal headache. No point in taking migraine meds as they won't work for a headache. Need headache meds and they are in my dinner meds.

Maybe if you looked for the stock cubes it may be a positive? Something you had achieved on your own? Be good preparation for when you move to Tassie and have to pack up your home with just you and your hubbie to do it?

Anymore on the photos from the wedding? Can you please post some here in the gallery for us to all enjoy?

Take care and take it easy.

I don't reckon that the fish oil theory is kosher..my mum takes them for arthritis, and I have never heard of them being beneficial for depression. I reckon that the Psych. who suggested it to Charmaine was nothing but a quack. And now she's lost her life...
Sorry you're not sleeping well, it's a real pain isn't it?
Regarding the stock cubes..as Sadfriend said - maybe you could look for them? However, if it was me, I'd have given up by now and gone out and bought a new packet!

Hi Study

I do know red meat is not good for people with Bipolar, Chicken and Fish should be the main "meat" dish I take Fish Oil tabs myself it is better for you than other oils and helps the body to digest foods, the other alternative is eating fish every second day? not my idea of a nice meal as I'm not a fish person.

Hope this helps some people with there question?
