My Old Stamps

I have at last come out of hibernation!!

I have a problem with my sinus and nobody I know
 has ever heard of it!! 

I can smell a chemical smell in my left nostril, on and off,
all day. I've had it for about 6 weeks now and in the beginning,
 I thought it was a combination of cleaners I had used on the kitchen floor. 
I then thought I had spread it around the house from the soles 
of my slippers. So I washed them but I could still smell it.
So I threw out my new slippers. 

To cut a long story short, I googled it and found it's called
Phantosmania!! 
My body is making the smell and nobody else can smell it!!
It is horrible and is now making my face swollen. 
Weird or what!! 
I spoke to a Pharmacist in Boots Chemist and she said I should 
try to get an appointment with a Doctor. 

So I will update when I 
see one!!

If you are still with me, I have used a stamp that I have had
for many years and not used for years!!
I used to have an addiction for Sarah Kaye stamps!!

I found the image ready stamped in a box, along with
quite a few more! 
I coloured her with Copics pens and the backing
papers were just found in a bits box. 


Is it too late to say Happy New Year?!!!

Thank you for stopping by and as always, I love to read you messages.
I will also pop over to your blog and leave you a message too,

So have a great weekend,
Big hugs, 
Carol

UPDATE: 
I had to go to a different Surgery and 
saw a very nice lady. She said it all
looked normal, but as she couldn't
see much, she is going to tell my GP that
I need an MRI scan. So she said to ring 
my Surgery on Monday to see if they 
have got it in action! 
To be continued!!!xx

Hi Carol

So sorry to hear of the problems you are having .. .. I hope they get to the bottom of things nice and quickly for you as it definitely sounds unpleasant. At least it looks like they are being thorough in checking you out.

Love your cute card. The image is definitely a lovely blast from the past and you have used your hidden treasure beautifully.

Love Jules xx

Oh Carol! My daughter had that! I promise! It drove her and us nuts - for weeks and weeks she said "you dont' smell that?" We finally saw a specialist and he said I know exactly what this is - and it will go away on it's own and if not, tx.
Wow - feel better! Your card is lovely! Xx
