:ta: thanks both im feeling a little better today about it and just sent my last complaint off i cant cope anymore so what will be will be, i,ve spoken to hubby about it and we both agree if i lose my job (even though its a great one) i,ll have to look for another when im fit but that doesnt help the fact my income has taken a nose dive. but my health is more important. I,ll speak to my gp about the pain meds (so afraid they recking my insides) and to ask if im likely to have permanant nerve damage due to the wait, cant do any more just sit (oh cant do that too painful)and wait. thanks for listening. gail
