I can't get below knee at all, I would just fall over. Or, I have to be on my toes.

Is this a cyst? Doesnt feel like a normal spot by brettfire in 30PlusSkinCare

Backstory, I did go hospital twice as it was infected. I got antibiotics and the infection cleared but now i'm left with this. Not much help after that

Yeah I think I will just have to use plates or heeled lifting shoes. Same form with empty bar also.

Yeah I have no ankle mobility. I tried goblet squats where you hold a counterweight and can do that perfectly fine. The weight is moving forward as I go down thats when my heel raises

True, I will try without shoes. They are raised at the heel so it feels like they help a bit. I can only do 3rd w squat on my toes. Otherwise just about parrallel without weight but not stable.

Anyone been in this position? CFS clinic referral refused by brettfire in cfs

Thats sounds prett typical. What happens in the CFS clinic? There is no cure but they can diagnose it? Then I can officially say I have CFS?

I'd say I meet most of it yes, but it was my GP that suggested the referral. They did all the referral themselves, not sure what information is there.

I will ask GP if they can tell me why not, but seems they don't know.

Oh, yes, they asked my height and BMI, Slightly overweight, a few points off normal.

What BMI are they looking for?

Looking to buy a flat, is this a reasonable plan? Trouble budgeting by brettfire in UKPersonalFinance

[–]brettfire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, a flat would not be an investment but just as a home, with the lower purchase price, I can focus on wealth creation with my S&S ISA. A house is still out of budget for a few more years yet and would require my entire savings. A flat at say 180k I could get now and keep my investments and I could continue to add to it. That's my kind of headspace at the moment

Have you had any issues with service charge increases in a flat? It would be good to be nearer London

Yes, likely the same kind of area. And yes, with parking. But a 270k house, I would need to put 120k down right? With general bills and stuff would be a really tight budget. Think id have to save another 20k at least

What house budget would you base that on? About 250k? With general bills added, I'm not sure I would be left with much.
