i am so pleased with myself since trying to stop drinking i have never went a whole week without a drink but i have not had a drink for ten whole days,it may not seem a lot to some people but it is massive for me all i need to do now is try and stay focused and try and carry on the way i am going and to not beat myself up to much if or when i do have a drink .I have been reading about the lack of support that so many of you have had from you GPs my docs have not prescribed me anything yet but they had been testing me to make sure my liver and kidneys are finewhich they are thank god,i have also been up to the hospital to have my heart checked over i get the results back for that in about two weeks time , i have got an under active thyroid so have just started medication for that and my doc is reluctantto give me anything until he knows i am on the correct strenght of thyroxine and i must admit i am not to bothered at the moment if i get anything for my drinking or not just so long as i know everything else is working properly:thanks: to you all for letting me babble for so long so until next time keep well

Well done,
Managing 10 days is brilliant, I do understand what an acheivement that is. Please don't forget YOU did that, without the doctors etc. They can't change things you can't pass the buck. But youhave proved that YOU can do something.
