| Mary (PS20F) |
[123] Oh aye, it is painful but I thought it's not going away so I'd better go and see about it. |
| (PS20E) |
[124] That's right. [125] You're bet you're better knowing what it is. |
| Mary (PS20F) |

[139] better |

[140] You get folk in their, in their thirties and forties with this [...] |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[141] With the same thing? |
| (PS20E) |
[142] Aye. [143] It's, it just er I'm not sure what happens, I, I think what happens is that the, the circulation into the nerve |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[144] Aha. |
| (PS20E) |
[145] gets blocked somehow. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[146] Oh. [147] Aha. |
| (PS20E) |
[148] And you're not getting the proper circulation down through |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[149] So [...] . |
| (PS20E) |
[150] the nerve, so it's sending the wrong messages back up. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[151] [whispering] I didn't know that [] . [152] Aye. |
| (PS20E) |
[153] And you, you're getting this |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[154] And you're getting the pain. |
| (PS20E) |
[155] And it feels absolutely terrible, especially in the cold mornings. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[156] That's right. |
| (PS20E) |
[157] If you go outside in the cold mornings |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[158] Aha. |
| (PS20E) |
[159] and it feels all as if it's numb? |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[160] It does. [161] Aye. |
| (PS20E) |
[162] Mhm. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[163] And it, it's just right up my shoulder here [...] . |
| (PS20E) |
[164] Just [...] here. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[165] That's |
| (PS20E) |
[166] And |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[167] right. |
| (PS20E) |
[168] and there and right down |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[169] And right down to my fingers. |
| (PS20E) |
[170] right down. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[171] Mhm. |
| (PS20E) |
[172] With one, one man said I used to put, in the cold mornings I used to put my other hand at the bottom to see if I could get heat, but he couldn't touch his fingers because they were so tender. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[173] Aye this was frozen to me, |
| (PS20E) |
[174] That's right. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[175] this hand, you know? |
| (PS20E) |
[176] And he just wanted to get the heat in so he kept his other hand round about it. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[177] I couldn't [...] , [...] |
| (PS20E) |
[178] So it's I mean it's not, it's not just yourself. [179] But it is |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[180] Aha. |
| (PS20E) |
[181] a painful thing. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[182] Oh, it is painful right enough. [...] |
| (PS20E) |
[183] Now I've given you some good tablets for this |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[184] Yeah. |
| (PS20E) |
[185] to help to unblock the circulation and to kill the pain. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[186] Aha. |
| (PS20E) |
[187] Now they are, because there're two things in them, they're quite strong. [188] Never take them on an empty stomach. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[189] No, even [...] with my breakfast. |
| (PS20E) |
[190] Mm. [191] Cup of tea, with |

| (PS20E) |
[204] Yeah. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[205] you know, to take? |
| (PS20E) |
[206] Not to take [...] |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[207] but I never take it |
| (PS20E) |
[208] Aye. |
| Mary (PS20F) |
[209] before my breakfast |
