The day to day ramblings of a Hughie. Sunday, 13 September 2009. Again my apologies for not posting for a while.busy summer getting my life back together, whatever the challenges! Job front - well, I tried to continue on in recruitment, got made redundant, the bottom has fallen out of recruitment consultancy, with over £3million unemployed again, who in their right mind is going to spend £2k to recruit someone, when all they have to do is place a free ad and wade through the response for nowt?

Having Hughes Syndrome: Disability Discrimination

http://ihavehughes.blogspot.com/2009/09/disability-discrimination.html

The day to day ramblings of a Hughie. Sunday, 20 September 2009. Well, I did promise that I would try to blog every Sunday, so here I am again.not feeling my best for the last few days - trepidation, resurrection of hurt feelings all coming back from my terrible time during the Summer last year when I was forced to resign due to disability discrimination and constructive dismissal. What is the reality though? Getting someone to get better to order is only going to make them worse? So I am to be cross exa...

Having Hughes Syndrome: August 2009

http://ihavehughes.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html

The day to day ramblings of a Hughie. Sunday, 16 August 2009. Depression for the chronically ill. I was just emailing a friend who I haven't seen for a while and we have agreed to get together next week as her kids and my kids are off school. The kids can play and we can natter over coffee! But on the whole I have my depression in check and I am able to put things in perspective most of the time and make the most of what I have. I have also learned to live with Hughes, rather than existing because of...

Having Hughes Syndrome: What hurts today??

http://ihavehughes.blogspot.com/2009/08/what-hurts-today.html

The day to day ramblings of a Hughie. Tuesday, 4 August 2009. I am not actually that bad today, a bit achy from being out and about with Caitlan yesterday, but not bad, for me! My ankles are swollen, they swell every day, the doctor thinks it is the strain on my kidneys from the medication I take every day. I have numbness in my fingers, which is annoying as I am having to type every word of this about 5 times each because my fingers aren't going where I think they are! I have to be really careful with o...

Having Hughes Syndrome: Update from Hughie!!

http://ihavehughes.blogspot.com/2009/10/update-from-hughie.html

The day to day ramblings of a Hughie. Saturday, 10 October 2009. Well, I had a dreadful time in court, going over my ordeal of June 2007 with my previous employers, all for the judges to decide that they didn't have enough time to make a decision and would let us know within 28 days by post! They need to recruit! I did have another chap, but he packed it in shortly after starting as he decided it was too much like hard work! Some people have no energy! The cold and the wet seemed to get into my bones and...

The day to day ramblings of a Hughie. Saturday, 8 August 2009. Medications for Hughes and Lupus.

Gabappentin works on your brain to alleviate nerve pain - it is sometimes given to people who get seizures or who are ep...
