Will it be a pain free day at last?

Although i have been woken again at 3am it is not due to an attack this time but due to me actually getting an early nights sleep and just normally waking up as my body clock is so used to getting up in the early hours it is just naturally waking me up early now. I suppose i should find away of tiring myself out and getting my body clock back into sync again. It is actually a nice change being woken up and not having a massive attack spoiling the start of the day and being in agony for hours after. I can’t remember that last time i actually woke up pain free.

The only trouble is if i don’t have an attack early morning does it mean it is going to wait till later and then start giving me attacks later in the day or is it a sign that i am finally going to have a pain free day and a break from all the attacks. Well fingers crossed and lets hope for the best as it has been a while since i had a pain free day so i am going to make the most of it. I am just hoping that the weather doesn’t set one off later as it is forecast to be wet and windy yet again.

The last couple of weeks have been really bad, the rain hasn’t let up, there are floods and flood warnings all over the UK, and my head has been worst than ever with all this wet and bad weather. I say its is a pain free day when in reality what i mean is there is no pain in the head. I have woken with pain in my back for some reason and i feel like i have been punched in my kidneys as both sides feel tender and are aching but i don’t have an infection like i would have thought i had with the amount of pain coming from my sides. The last time my sides felt like this i was passing blood in my urine and was extremely painful to go to the toilet as i had a nasty infection. I am also running a temperature as i feel like i am sweating and as soon as a cold draft hits my skin i feel like i have goose bumps and start to shiver all over.

It is possible i am coming down with some bug or other illness but there are only mild signs at the moment and a bit of unwanted sweating and back aches. I am hoping these will ease off as the day continues and i start to feel a bit better later. I have the heating on full blast but still feel cold so i know there is something that isn’t quite right. As i am typing up this blog i have suddenly started t feel sick so i am wondering if its just another stomach bug as i seem to catch them very easily as well as colds. I know me being run down is the main reason why i catch bugs and colds so easily and quickly but all i can do is take the usual precautions everyone takes and try and stay as warm and dry as is possible.

Well its the end of another week and Christmas is now over thankfully so no more running about like headless chickens trying to find gifts for people. The only thing left to do now is see in the new year. I am not sure if i am going to be able to see in the new year with my family as i don’t know how my head is going to perform over the next few days. Either i will be OK and i will get to see it in with my mother and stepfather otherwise its going to be a night in watching the TV till i fall asleep. I don’t mind either to be honest, i would rather i spent the time with my family but if needs must then it will be alone in front of the box.
