Me & My Health #6 (Thyroid Complications)

I didn't expect this to be a blog post writing, I was planning a first impressions blog post or a empties but on Monday I was taken to hospital so thought I would explain what happened. Just to warn you I will be speaking very honestly and people may feel like it is too graphic.

How I felt?
For 10 days I had had constipation, for 3 days I had not peed and for 2 days had been sick plus really bad stomach pains, I had tried a few medications to help me go toilet but nothing worked.

111
On Monday I went into work and just couldn't deal with the pain and constantly running in and out to throw up, I currently work in Leeds, I am going to do a blog post about my new venture soon but I currently don't have a local doctors so rang 111 and the guy told me to go within two hours to a specific health centre in Leeds. A bit TMI but on my way from work to my sister (staying at hers) before going to the medical centre I had to make a detour to the nearest public toilet because I felt like I was going to either throw up or poop myself, I had diarrhea, I felt so relieved but so embarrassed because I never go toilet in public places and if I do its for a wee. I know this is very TMI sorry. My sister came along with me to the medical centre and in I went.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: Maybelline Lash Sensational Lash Multiplying Mascara

My sister placed an order on FeelUnique the other day and she got this mascara so I decided I would try it out.

CLAIMS:

• 6 lengths of bristles that captures the tiniest lashes
• Inner bristles capture the tiniest lashes you didn’t know you had
• Outer bristles volumise & define the look of longer lashes
• From corner to corner, top to bottom, no lash is left behind
• Creates the blackest of black lashes that are so dark and defined
• Layers can be built without clumping.

I thought I would share my top 5 purchases of July.

ASOS DESIGN Super Dropped Armhole Tank

I really want to get into working out but don't have any gym wear so purchased a few bits but this is the thing that I love the most because it is so comfortable and I don't feel like I am too revealing with what I pair it with.

Dear Lady At The Bus Stop

I have decided to write a blog post moaning, this isn’t to single out just one person because I know other people will feel the same but this is my experience so here it goes.
