Oh well that’s the longest break i have had between attacks for a long time. I was again woken at 2am this morning with a call from the beast. this time it was a big one. Screaming agony for roughly an hour. Swollen eye and sweating as if a tap had been turned on in the body and my clothes suddenly became soaked with sweat. I took my injection and sat on my oxygen but nothing seemed to help.
When the attack had finished it has left me with a pain in the neck and a feeling like i have a ball stuck in there once again. Its a weird feeling and extremely painful. My eye feels like it has been poked out with a hot poker and i am getting sharp pains and a feeling of pressure again on the top of my head all on the left side. This is the shadow feeling and i will now get this for the next few days if it doesn’t ease away later this morning. I am hoping it does and this is a one off attack but i am so used to having bouts of attacks and then a break and then the attacks return that i will not be surprised if i don’t get attacks for a couple of days.
Fingers crossed it is just a change in weather or my infection that has triggered the attack and i don’t have any repeats later in the day. All i can do for now is try and stay warm and relax so i don’t irritate my head. i won’t be able to return to sleep now i have the shadow feeling but at least i can just sit and relax listen to some music or TV for a bit. I am not planning on going anywhere for a couple of days as i am waiting for a parcel to arrive so i won’t have to worry about the wet weather. I think it is down to the rain and a low pressure area again that i have had the attack this morning.
It’s not only the feeling of pressure that is annoying me but also the constant little sharp stabbing pains in the area of my lung on the back. I am told this is down the having my chest infection so i am praying it starts to heal itself soon as i just can’t seem to get comfortable no matter what i do. I don’t have any problems with my breathing or even a cough so it’s strange to think i have a chest infection when i don’t have any other signs. I am just over half way through my antibiotic course of medication so hopefully it won’t be long and it will soon be gone.
