Absolutely Brilliant! I actually managed to have a good lay in this morning and didn’t crawl out of bed until gone 9am this morning. No sign of the beast so far and my back, all though a bit sore, isn’t playing up today as it has been for the last few days. the wind seems to have gone down a bit and apart from a few sharp stabbing pains every now and again, to remind me its there, the wind doesn’t seem to be building or causing me any problems today. Mind you i did go to the toilet and had a struggle for 30 minuets and then suddenly the world fell out of my rear.
I am still getting some strange pains in my left shoulder and aches in the chest right at the top on the left side. It could be a trapped nerve or even a bit of wind could still be trapped higher up. All i know is it is giving me cause to worry as i keep getting sharp pains and then panic in case i am having a heart problem. I am now going to start stopping all the extra medication the different doctors gave me for the stomach and wind as i don’t feel i need them all and it could be causing me more problems taking all the different medication. So one by one i will be stopping them and see if i get any more problems. I can always re-start the medication if i get more wind building up and causing me pain.
I have an appointment with my share-care worker on Wednesday and it will be the first time i have met this worker as the last one i had, she was brilliant, has now left to pursue her career in neurology. This worker is the main person i can use to get help when i need it as the idea of the share care is they will speak and update all of the different doctors as to what is going on with me and how they can get me back to fitness. I am looking forwards to this appointment as i can find out what other action the doctors are taking to get to the bottom of all the problems i have been having.
I can’t ait until the 4th of November as i am back up the hospital in the Chromic Pain clinic and will be able to ask them to investigate the problems i have walking and sitting and why my legs become numb when walking distance and why my bum also goes dead making it feel like you are sat inside a hole all the time. I know i have a referral to the MROI clinic for a scan to see if it the spine that is causing all these pains and problems and maybe even my neck is the cause of t all. We won’t be able to tell exactly what it is that’ causing the problems until we have had the scan. Over the last few months i have had a complete check up as i have had x-ray’s done and also ultra sound scans to see if they could find anything but unfortunately nothing showed up not even in my blood tests apart from high cholesterol. Fingers crossed they find out what is happening to me soon as i don;t know if i could go through the entire winter not only dealing with the beast and the attacks but also having to deal with the bowels and wind all the time.
