Doctors and Comfort Food

Thank you all so much for your concerns and good wishes, I knew I could rely on my lovely bloggy friends to cheer me up. Well, what a difference a day makes... 24 little hours......there is a song there somewhere:-)  Today I feel so much better, I had a rough and sweaty night but after a nice cooling shower and hair wash I started to feel 'human' again, Im hoping thats the worst of it over and it disappears as fast as it came. I will continue with the hot lemon and honey and the paracetamol for another couple of days as a precaution.

As I said yesterday, I had a Doctors appointment to see if he could fix my dry throat and tickly cough thats been recurring over the last 6 months, I had a quick look online last night and just about frightened myself to death! I hadn't seen this new Doctor before, he looked about 15 :-) but was very nice, I think he is the first english Doctor we have had at the local practice, he looked down my throat and had a really good listen to my chest, which was clear and after a few questions he thinks its either Postnasal  Drip or Reflux.  I have been given a Steroid Nasal Spray and some Lansoprazole, a months supply of each and I have to go back in 3 weeks to tell him how I feel before we can proceed further, I also have to go for a chest xray just to tick the box.  Lets hope I see some improvement quickly.

We had an early dinner tonight and comfort food and vitamins were called for

Sausage and Mushroom Pasta with crunchy salad.

It was a cheating dinner.... I used a jar of Aldi Roasted tomato and Mozzarella stir in sauce :-) with

3 leftover Lincolnshire sausages

4 sliced Mushrooms 

3 handfuls of dry Pasta cooked

It gave enough for 3 portions, so I can have the leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

Time to make a cuppa.....Doctors orders!   He told me to drink plenty liquids :-)

Thank you once again for such lovely comments.
