Hoping for a “pain free” day fishing at local lake.

I didn’t get anymore attacks yesterday and managed to get through the evening with out the Beast showing its face again. This morning i have woken early at 5 am not from the best and not due to shadows or pressure its because i am going fishing today with John my best mate. We decided yesterday instead of just having a couple of hours in the evening we would make a day of it instead and at 7 am we will be off down our local lake. I don’t know why but when ever i go fishing i don;t seem to get any attacks or even signs of the attacks building in the back ground. Even if my back is painful and i can’t move around too much there is something about the sport of fishing that seems to keep me calm and relaxes me. It actually relaxes me enough to stop the attacks from coming. I am hoping this will be the case today as i can already feel some shadows when i woke up this morning but they are not very strong and i doubt an attack will come of it.

There are some showers forecast for today and a low pressure system over Cardiff so i have to watch out as normally this will set off my attacks like there is no tomorrow and i end up getting anything up to 15 attacks in one day. I can then go 3 or 4 days with no attacks after a bad spell or it could end u a couple of days of attacks. my condition is so erratic at the moment it is hard to tell what , when and if the attacks come and how long they will last.

Well fingers crossed for a great days fishing at out local lake and for the chance of catching a monster carp. Lets hope the beast stays in hibernation for a while i and i can enjoy my day staying relatively pain free. i don’t mind the back playing up now and again as its only natural if i am going to be moving about and carrying fishing gear. I will take a couple of pain killers with me just in case it does start to become unbearable and very painful. The one good thing is that John will be coming with me so if there are any problems he is there to help. I have to say he has been a life line just lately and has helped me out no end of time. I should do something nice for the guy just to say thanks, i will see what i can find and then surprise him.
