Bad mum TUT

M is never ill...He very occasionally gets sick but not often and never anything to bother the GP with...But he had an appointment today about his bloody noses...Now they as i said to my GP run in the family...GP said bad joke LOL...I hadn't even noticed that pun DUH!!!...But they do run in the family no pun intended...My maternal grandad got them, some of my mums brothers got them and various other relatives down the line on mums side get them...G is fine but both K and M get them...K has had her nose cauterised several times over the years but M never has...But after the really bad one back at the end of june and several minor ones over the holidays i thought i best that he had it seen to...Also back around may he had a blocked ear and he kept making weird faces to try and pop it...After the blocked ear went away he kept making the faces and being autistic i thought bad habit he has got into...Well am wrong on all counts...He has an infection in his nose which is causing the nose bleeds...How the doctor and nurse he saw in A&E didn't see that well am saying nowt...So the infection is causing the nose bleeds...And the infection is xausing his ear to block...So he has cream to put up his nose, antibiotics to take and then after 2 weeks of them a nasal spray...And in a month he has to go back and possibly get it cauterised...He's now sat here being an absolute wee shit to me about it all...Like i said he's never ill...He is refusing to take the meds...He says meds are dangerous and he might get side effects...He's being very very autistic about it all...I HATE moments like this when his autism really shows up...Most of the time now he is fairly manageable and you wouldn't tell there was anything 'wrong' with him...Am going to have to talk to school because i can't get it through to him he needs the medication.

On another note which is slightly more cheery...I spoke to bloke who owns our corner shop and he's told me to steer clear of business gateway as they will give me advice that i really don't need when working from home...Most of what i will need to know i can actually find out for myself and phone the respective places to get it....And that will cost me NOWT :o) Also i totally forgot that one of K's friends her dad advises people on stuff like this as his job...If am gonna pay anyone i'd rather pay him...One of my pals is an accountant and they can give me some advice on that side of things...My cutting tool thingy that also creases was getting a bit past it...Well the creasing part was losing the will to live LOL...Poor thing i made it work so hard creasing around 300 lots of card into actual cards to decorate...Also the cutting edge on that one didn't cut translucent paper very well...It kind of left a slightly folded over edge on it...Translucent paper being like tracing paper...I was wanting to buy a gullotine instead but the best one i've seen is £40 which i can't afford just now...And when i went back and looked at them again the only one with different edged blades was too small for my purposes...But i have got myself a fab, very sharp rotary cutter from Asda...6 different blades, 12 inch steel rule (that will make 4 i have LOL), scalpel and sharp as anything...It has straight edge, creasing edge, wavy edge, zigzag edge, deckle edge and perforator...The perforator on my other cutting thing i prefer but hey ho...The wavy, zigzag and deckle well the difference is miniscule...But it cuts so cleanly and cuts the translucent paper perfectly...And only cost £15 :o) I may buy a spare whilst they have them in stock LOL...And my wonderful little sis has come up with a name for me :o) Am not gonna say what it is yet as i don't want to jinx it...But M thinks it's catchy and he actually 'gets' it :o)  Anyways better go and get them off to club after eggheads...To those i know who read here who have been under the weather to say the least am still praying you are recovering.

What you need to do is find some information about what could happen if he doesn't take the medication and the infection spreads, would he be able to see the consequences would be worse?

Hiya :o)

can sympathise with the nose bleeds! Have a brother and a son that suffer terribly with them. Also with the medication issue.

My son has had a blood clot and been on warfarin, in his wisdom because he's now up and about he's got it into his head he can just stop taking it!

Have you tried the Hopi ear candles for the ears Cath? They are brilliant and do help to clear them.

Hope K is ok xxxxx

My J won't take any medication that isn't pink and doesn't taste like Calpol!!
Hope M's taking his now.
