Fingers crossed for warmer weather….

Well I have managed another day pain free. This is now the longest i have been with out a big attack for over a year. Maybe it’s the time of year and due to the fact that the weather is now starting to warm up or maybe it’s the medication that is now controlling the attacks and actually stopping them from building, What ever it is i don’t mind as it means i can start re-building my life style. For some strange reason today I am feeling awful, rough, under the weather, what ever way you use to describe it i just don’t feel normal. I have cold sweats even though the flat is warm. I am not over heating nor do I have the temperature of the heating turned up too high? It’s just not making sense.

I know my body is run down due to an abscess i had on one of the teeth that is left in my mouth and had to take drastic action and burst it in order for the pain to go and the pressure to ease. I have kept the wound clean and been rinsing my mouth out with warm salt water at least 3 times a day to make sure i keep it clear and stop anything else getting in and causing me even more problems.Also i have been taking antibiotics for the last 3 days to ensure the infection goes before my appointment on the 22nd to have the rest of the teeth removed. It could be this that is making me feel so unwell or it could just be that i may have a bad cold on its way but i don’t feel blocked up or aching so god only knows what it could be.

All i can do for now is make sure i keep warm and don’t do anything stupid that could cause me an attack. Also make sure i do wrap up if i go out as the cold can easily bring the attacks back if i am not careful. As far as feeling ill is concerned there is nothing i can do about it except let it run its course and hope its not a nasty cold that is making me feel this way. With the weather warming up it is now fishing time so i hope to be going out on the weekend and see if i can catch myself some of these nice big carp that have been evading me through the winter. However, if the weather isn’t quite warm enough i will postpone it until during the week as i know we have some sunny weather due to arrive by Tuesday at the latest.
