I am surprised i am still getting problems with my head with all this nice weather and heat wave we experiencing. I have found that the bright sun light shining directly into my eyes seems to bring on attacks and also if i get to hot and overheat myself i find that also brings on attacks. I never thought i would get attacks from the sun or the heat as usually it is what helps to keep the attacks away but i suppose too much of a good thing can sometimes be bad for you.
I was going to go fishing yesterday with one of the members of Fishing Adventures Wales, John Rees, but decided as my back was in a lot of pain to put it off till today. I am actually glad we did as yesterday i was very hot and if we would have been outside in the sun i am sure we would have burnt and ended up with sun stroke. Today my back is a lot better so we are going to give the river a try and see what we can catch.
My head seems to behaving itself at the moment so i am looking forwards to a great days fishing on the Rumney River, our local river that is within walking distance from where i live. Its been years since i fished a river properly so this should be a fun day out and as long as the head keeps being good i should be able to enjoy a brilliant day fishing.
On a another note, i can’t seem to get over how fast my mum is recovering from her major operation and having a kidney removed, You would have thought she would have been laid up in bed for a while whilst the body adjusts itself. but not my mother, oh no! She is already out and about getting fresh air and enjoying the sun. She looks so much better after the operation and seems to have her natural glow back and is full of life. I wish i was as strong as her sometimes they just don’t make the like that anymore.
I know she has the wheelchair to help get around so she is not really doing anything excessive that would hurt her but you can’t help worrying and wishing she would rest until she is back to her self 100%. She feels a lot better and a lot of things like her blood pressure is returning to normal and her sugar levels also returning to normal so it is looking like this cancer on the kidney is what threw her body into confusion and caused a lot of the secondary problems. Now that its gone she is starting to get back to her old self.
Just think a few years ago they wouldn’t have been able to do such an operation so quickly and would have been months recovery in hospital etc. They have come so far with technology that all these major operations are now becoming every day practice and people seem to be recovering quicker. No matter how much we moan about having to wait for referrals and appointments you still can’t beat the NHS in the UK as we are the only country in the world with this system and give free treatment to any that need it.
Talking about referrals i am still waiting for the referral to the back specialist and try and get some answers for the pain all the time and all the problems i am getting when walking. It seems when it happens it is getting worst each time. the pains are getting stronger and it gets harder and harder to walk when it does happen. Thank god its not all the time or i don’t know how i would cope. At least i got my movement most of the time and am able to walk to the shop when needed but when the back gets bad i can’t even get to the bus stop let alone the shop at the top of the road. Can’t wait to find out what is causing it?
