Unfortunately i didn’t manage to go pain free all day yesterday as i ended up getting 3 attacks in the morning whilst waiting for my doctors appointment and one attacks towards the evening. The doctors appointment confirmed that i have a nasty infection and not only do i have an infection in the tooth but also in the chest and kidney at the same time. It seems like my right side of the body is infected where as the left side of the body remains free. The pain i keep on getting in my side, where the kidney is located on the left is very sharp every now and again and combined with a constant ache. Its like having tooth ache but in your side.
I am now on strong antibiotics to hopefully shift this infection once and for all. I discussed my tablets with the doctor and we both agreed i should stay on the same dosage of the verapamil until the infection has shifted and as soon as i am feeling better i can arrange ,my appointment to go and have my ECG scans before i increase the dosage each week. Its going to be a real pain in the backside to go and get this scan done once a week for the next for weeks as i have to travel miles. If i go by bus then it will take 2 buses and approximately 1 hour and 20 minuets to get there. Not to mention i don’t even know where it is in the first place all i know it is somewhere in Barry.
I was feeling very run down yesterday so i decided on having an early night and hopefully start feeling a bit better. I woke up at 5 am this morning with no pains in the head, neck or back but a sharp pain in the side. As soon as i got up and started to walk about to pain eased away so i think i should be ok today. I am hoping that the beast stays away also as we have been forecast some very nice sunny weather today and myself and my step father have decided to go fishing down at our local pond.
Lamby Pond is a small little pond on the side of a busy industrial estate that produces some very nice fish. We have fished this venue a few times and have never failed to catch when we go. Lets hope out luck stays with us and we manage to catch some nice fish today. I am really looking forward to it as it will take my mind of all this blooming medication i have to take. Anyway its time i got myself dressed and ready for the day ahead.
