Pain free at last!

At last i managed a full day with with out any big attacks. I still had a couple of the smaller ones and the shadow was playing up most of the evening. I think it was due to the weather again as i felt a cold draft on my neck last night and that seemed to make the shadow become a lot stronger but it didn't develop into an attack. I am sure it is the medication i am taking that is stopping the attacks from developing. Unfortunately it doesn’t work every time as i am still getting a couple of attacks in a day. Hopefully over time these attacks will be a thing of the past or at least just a couple a week will do me fine i can live with that. Its when they are constant all day long is when i get really down and just can’t cope with the pain all the time.

Today i managed a little lay in till around 6am but had to get up as the shadow had started playing up and i thought i was getting an attack but thankfully it didn't come. I have managed to stay pain free all morning, so far, but the pressure feeling on the side of my head is bad at the moment so i think i am due an attack at any time. I am praying i am wrong and i get another pain free day. Fingers crossed and lets hope that's the case.

Was shocked at my door going at 7.30am this morning from the post man. I have never seen a postman delivering that early in the morning but as it was a parcel delivery i suppose they try and get it all done as soon as possible before the end of the working day at around 5pm. I am made up as all the stuff i ordered for fishing has arrived so i will be spending the day playing around and re-sorting all my tackle to go into their new homes. I have a few presents for my mum and step-father too so they will be pleased as they like fishing just as much as me and are counting down the days till we go on holiday and out fishing again.

Well the sun is out and the air is calm so hopefully it will be a bit warmer today and i will get out of the flat for a while as i am so fed up with being locked in doors. I would go fishing but its just that little bit too cold for the fish to be feeding properly. Don’t get me wrong you can catch fish in the coldest of temperatures if you use the right feed and bait but i would rather catch a few instead of just one or two. Maybe i am just greedy when it comes to fishing as i like to be active all day long and not just sit there like a lemon waiting for a bite. I would rather go and find the fish instead of just waiting for the fish to come to me like a few i have seen doing. I think that is the laziest type of fishing and its just not for me. It won’t be too long and i will be back out again and i intend on fishing almost  every weekend through the season  and visit as many places as i can  this year.
