Well the beast came back with its early morning wake up calls after having a break from them for almost 2 weeks. That's now a record for me, actually going 14 days with no early morning attacks. It's a shame they couldn't stop altogether but that's wishful thinking. I was still getting the attacks during the day but since i started the Ametrypline they reduced right down and now i know whats wrong with my back and left side and have started to learn to live with the problems the attacks are at an all time low for me which is amazing.
Despite my attacks being so low and learning to live with the pain from the damage nerve in the neck i am still feeling very run down and lethargic. I am not sure what is causing it and why its happening. I have been getting pains in my kidneys so i have been watching when i go to the toilet for signs of any infections or problems but all seems fine. When i try and walk to the shop my energy drains away so fast its crazy. It feels like i have just run a marathon when i have only been walking for 3 minuets. It could be the nerve causing it as i was told i would get very wide spread and severe symptoms but it would just be the nerve playing up. Its so difficult to tell/
I have been waiting months for the new fishing season to start and finally it has so i am off out fishing. I have decided on a week of no stop fishing and relaxation so I am gong down my local lake and am going to camp out there for the 5 days and fish and relax no matter what the weather. Just to get out in the fresh air and leave all your troubles behind for the week will be heaven. Fishing is how i now relax and relieve all my stresses and worries. After not being able to fish as much as i wanted to last year due to all the problems and hospital appointments i am really going to try and make up for it this year.
