Have to get back into the swing of things…

Well i suppose i should get back into the habit of writing my blog each day as i used to. I have been distracted by fishing and other things including my health and stomach problems at the moment. It’s crazy having to deal with constant head attacks and now i have to deal with bowl and stomach problems as well. It must be the medication causing my bowls to play up so much but with out the medication i could end up with having 8 or more attacks each day again. I don’t know if i could go through all that again.

At least the attacks seem to have reduced in the number i get and now i am glad with the warmer weather i should be able to put these attacks behind me as long as we get the medication right and i get to grips with the other health issues i have. Its not only the attacks that are troubling me but also the hernia i know have on the right side of the groin that plays up constantly and feels like someone has kicked you in the groin when it does start to hurt. I also get pains in my sides, i am assuming it’s form wind and this is a constant battle each day, its as if someone has turned on a wind tap inside me and it just wont stop, this can be embarrassing when out shopping or in closed areas.

To top everything else off there is my Back! Each day i get up move about and take short walks to the shops i am noticing not only pain in my legs and joint but also at the base of the spine and this pain is strong and can sometimes get so bad i can no longer walk and have to stop somewhere and sit down to rest. The pain starts to spread into my but cheeks and can become even worst if i am carrying any shopping. I a, not sure where the pain in the back comes from but i know its bad and gets worst with cold and damp weather.

I am currently waiting to see the doctor on the 20th and see if we can get some plan of action put together to see if i can sort out my health once and for all. I have an appointment tomorrow with the dentist again for another fitting of my new teeth. its about time i got it sorted so i am really happy about that. Also on the 20th i have an appointment with my case worker , Louise, down at the CAU office so i will get a chance to bring them up to date with what is going on and the different treatments i am now on. Its almost time to restart the Verapamil as i think it was just bad timing when i became ill and they had nothing to do with me getting so bad. I am hoping when back on the verapamil the attacks will stop all together and i wont have to worry about the beast waking me up in the early hours any more.
