Just when you think you are starting to get well something else comes along and causes you to become ill or at least feel like you are ill. I am still getting early morning attacks and daily visits from the beast making me have to deal with pain on a daily basis but after having dealt with these for a few years now it has started to become the norm. I can’t remember the last time i had a day where i had no pain what so ever. I thought i had finally beaten the allergic reaction i was getting as the symptoms seemed to ease off gradually and i started to get the thrush in the mouth under control. I think i could have been the actual thrush that was giving me these allergic reaction type symptoms but its really hard to say that it is definitely the cause.
As things have started to improve and i have been starting to feel a lot better the last few days now the mouth is starting to play up again and starting to feel sore inside just as it did when the thrush first started. I am still using mouth wash and an anti fungal oral medication to keep treating it but for some reason it seems to be getting sore again. Not only a,m i having problems with my mouth getting sore but also pains in my back have started to become severe. Sometimes i think it could be the kidneys but there is no sign of infection at all and then sometimes it feels as though its a little to high up for it to be kidneys so i assume its something to do with the muscles. It could also just be down to wind again travelling around the body as i seem to get a lot of that just lately.
I have done a lot of research with regards to the hiatus hernia that i now have and found out that for some reason, due to an imbalance in the acid levels the body produces, i am now going to suffer from different types of fungal infections. This explains where the thrush has come from and why it has been so problematic. It also tells me that i will also suffer from allergies that i never had before so i can now understand where the allergy symptoms have come from. I also read that for some reason the hiatus hernia also causes a lot of back pain especially in the lower back region and can cause a lot of wind build up. It seems that every symptom listed that the hernia can cause i have been suffering with.
I am grateful that the amount of attacks i normally get from my condition has reduced to a level that i can now manage on a daily basis and that due to the warmer weather i am finding that i can remain pain free during the day time and only have to deal with the attacks late at night or in the early hours. I know it can become annoying being woken up early every day but it a lot better than having to deal with up to 8 big attacks every day. I have started planning my first fishing trip of the season as the local lake by me has now re-opened and i have decided i will be gong for 3 days fishing with one of my mates and a couple of others will join us when we are down there. I am hoping that the weather holds and that we have 3 days of half decent weather so i don't have to deal with the beast too much whilst i am camped on the lake bank. I am really looking forwards to it as its been a while since i last when i am dying to get back out in the fresh air and the sun so fingers crossed all will go to plan.
