Thanks for this Leo. My consultants are now going to explore the nerve stuff in my brain, but who knows when. Unfortunately pain meds do next to nothing for me, even the morphine based stuff. To be honest, I’m really struggling at the moment and my mental health is in the toilet. Nobody can do anything though, and talking isn’t going to fix it so I’m hoping to squish those emotions into a box and bury them somewhere like normal. Especially if you’re on KZbin, people see the best of you, which is often a small percentage of your existence. Keep on keeping on fella, I hope it continues to improve. Oh BTW you have a ghost moving the blind behind you now and then LOL

You can learn to work with physical disabilities, but to be in constant pain is a totally different ball game. I totally understand why it would affect your mental health, even something simple like toothache for a few days can be debilitating, never mind having pain for years. It's great to hear that this has made a huge difference to your life 👍 I'm a cyborg as well, having a Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (pace maker) fitted after heart attacks and dropping dead ... I can't charge mine, so it needs to be replaced every so many years (probably around seven years for me) 😁

What is your average pain for 1 out of 10 ?
@shaun30-3-mg9zs4 күн бұрын
Hi Leo, hope your well, Not me personally but my son, Cameron I know what you mean by tunnelling , when Cameron had his surgery as a child in Alder Hey hospital in Liverpool the surgeons had to tunnel a tube from a shunt which is valve with a spike in to the brain and a tube the other end that is tunnelled down through his neck to his chest and in to his stomach so that his CF fluid from his brain can travel down to his stomach. Cameron was born with Spina Bifida and Hydro Cepholis which is water on the brain that is why he had a tube from his head to his stomach. I am happy for you and it been a year and now you can control your pain I know its not a cure but you can manage it . They are good specialists in Walton Hospital in Liverpool and now Cameron is under Walton now. It's good to see you are doing fine and treatment is working well, It's good to talk about this and to hear your experience on this. Always good to watch Take care mate

Great video, I'm sorry you had to go through 3 years before they did it. In my case they sent me to a specialist that stuck needles into my muscles and nerves to check where the problems were, that was painful, after that they told my dr and according to him they told him I needed it right away but first I had to go through a psychological evaluation to make sure I would be able to handle having it in my body. I am so glad I went through with it cause it has helped alot. I have to recharge mine every 6 days. Thank you for doing the video

Nice work gonna do my brown upvc in anthracite using the paint you suggested, did you find any brush strokes as was debating on spraying instead, also how many coats did you use to get the final finish? thanks
@Hand-i-Craft4 күн бұрын
Cheers Rob, I brushed on and then finished with a foam roller. Spraying would be great but I wanted to slow in this video it could be done with basic equipment. Two coats for me, the first is definitely a primer coat and looks pretty grim but when you apply the second coat it looks great 👍👍
@RobBZwift4 күн бұрын
@@Hand-i-Craft thanks for the fast reply! did you leave to dry between the coats or just go straight over with the roller after the brush? Cheers!
@Hand-i-Craft4 күн бұрын
@@RobBZwift Go for the roller as once you’ve applied a coat. You need to roller it before it dries to help get rid of the brush strokes. Be warned it dries quickly so don’t paint too big and area before using the roller as you’ll find it’s dried and too late for the roller. Don’t ask me how I know 😂
