The guy Bearsden Red who used to post here, I think?
Alive and not well.
Had issues with my login when the site changed forums. had to create a new one. Update since my heartattack back in 21. Oh the good ole days.
Went back to college in 2020 and 2021 and done my higher english, maths to get into teacher training PGDE course at strathclyde. In july 2023 bought a new car to replace my old falling to pieces fiesta. During that, my vision went wonky, basically i could not see out my left eye. big massive blob sitting in the middle. Went to opticians at Asda Bearsden. They referred me to Gartnavel hospital. they did tests. done blood work.
Was on my retrieval placement at Douglas Academy when i got phone call during really bad week of stress to go down to Queen Elizabeth hospital were i was told i had optic neuritis. aka MS.
Been on steroids since Sept 23, until august 24. And still off work and had to drop out my last module for the course. MS is such a killer physically, i am tired all the time with fatigue, painful headaches and constant stabbing pains in my eyes. Hence i have not been on much...
so this is my new username..
