Thankfully i have managed a couple of days attack free but am still getting a lot of pain from this lump in my back. No matter how much i try and avoid aggravating it i still end up in agony by the end of the day. There was a few times i thought it was going to set off some big attacks but luckily they didn't develop. I just wish i could get rid of the pain completely and then i would be able to get back to the thing i love doing such as fishing etc.
I am still getting a lot of wind and my stomach is still bloating up all the time. I believe this is down to the food and liquid trapping all the time making me feel as though i am about to choke but then suddenly passes through to the stomach with a strange feeling and a pop. I don’t know why this is happening and have my suspicions. It could be from where i used to retch when i was having really bad and strong attacks all the time. It is possible that i may have caused a hernia or a tear from almost throwing up all the time but when i did nothing would come up.
The trouble is there are so many things that could be causing the problems that i am having it’s crazy. I am still waiting for a date for the endoscopy to try and find out what is going on and why my food traps in the way it does. I am also waiting for the scan on my back to see what on earth this lump is and why it keeps pressing on the nerves effecting the entire left side of my body. I don’t understand why the hospital would leave someone in so much pain and agony all the time and leave them waiting months for a procedure to make them feel better. It wouldn’t be so bad if it was the case of just waiting until they make me feel better but i am still at the investigation stage and no closer to finding out what is going on and what they can do to make me feel well.
One bit of amazingly good news is that i won a massive fishing tackle competition from Korum. I entered the competition a few months ago to win over £1000 worth of top professional Carp and Specimen fishing gear and they sent it to me during the week. I was amazed at how much they sent as i was only expecting a 2 rod carp set up and they ended up sending me the latest top quality 3 rod set up with all the luggage and accessories you could ever dream of having including a multi shelter, alarms and the latest in fish care. It is a fisherman's wildest dream to have all the top end equipment and i have been so lucky to be awarded it so now i need to get out a bit more and get some fishing done. I can’t wait until i get out on the bank and have a play with all my new gear talk about boys with new toys.
