Just been diagnosed

Tried to go for a swim today like I usually do but could only manage 10 lengths not my normal 20 ! I'm hoping it's because I've not been for a while ! Also developed an itchy rash across my stomach some of the spots are very sore ️ ️ ️Any words of wisdom would be good I just hate mornings I can't relax x Now my crown has disappeared think I swallowed it !!!

  • Hello deirdre,

    Twenty lengths that really isn't bad! You must be a pretty good swimmer. Swimming is great exercise and I hope you felt better after going for a swim even if you did 10 lengths instead of the usual 20. It's still very good and I find swimming makes me feel more relaxed.

    I hope the rash has got better - do go and get it checked out at the doctor's so that they can hopefully prescribe something to relieve your symptoms. Make sure you mention that the spots are very sore.

    I hope tomorrow is a better day for you! We're all here anytime you need to chat.

    Best wishes,
