You are ace most of all Kathy
Keep going, keep fighting, keep letting us know what's going on...it doesn't come across as moaning at all, more like 'offloading' as you put it!
I hope your docs get their proverbial backsides in gear and get things moving a bit quicker for you. It's about time you had a holiday from some of this rubbish you're going through.
I hear you on the bed thing.... I've started sighing heavily when my husband mentions bed - poor chap!! No reflection on him, just that I hate trying to find a comfortable position, and setting up all the shenanigans to try and keep the quilt off my feet. It's exhausting, and I miss that 'aaaah bed...mmm....zzz...' kind of feeling I used to associate with bedtimes
Look after yourself,
