That was one nervous walk. My semi conclusion regarding the nervous gut I have is that part of it is in the colon yes, but strangely enough the feeling was still in rectum and in the small intestine and bladder. I think the majority of the nervous gut was in the colon as it was…
Nervouuuus!
This morning I got up with Axel and laid on the sofa enjoying the way our Christmas decorations brought some lovely comforting light to the dark winter morning. My day ahead looked very calm and peaceful, just relaxing all day (which is needed) and a lovely trip to have lunch at work. I've been looking…
Calls and plenty of pictures
Had the joys once again of waking up and chatting to a good friend this morning. I am so grateful for the internet and video calls, it makes it so much easier being away from friends. I can't wait to go back home (England home) and see them again. It's tough being away from them…
Crazy dragon, psycho mood secrets
So here it comes. My embarrassing confession. The other me. The other side of things. The truth of last weekend. Last weekend I was a mess. I had an agonising toothache, I was exhausted, I was uncomfortable, and I was cutting out the morphine. In other words, I was an emotional, unstable, hurricane of a…
Another day, but this one with some sunshine
I rang the referral clinic as soon their telephone line opened today at 10 and surprise surprise got the lovely recorded message that they would be back again at 10 on Monday. What a load of bullshit! Again I got so upset! So after talking to mum I called the normal doctors (mums idea) who I have not…
Annoyed and good night
So I wrote a long blog, in word and then it disappeared. I'm not gonna rewrite anything tonight. Sorry! I just want this day to end now! Happy Thanksgiving! Before I go to sleep I'm gonna try to forget this day and remember what I am thankful for, because in reality there is a lot!…
Upset, frustrated, angry, tiredness Grr!!
I am going crazy! Just spoke to the nicer nurse at the urologist and she couldn't really help me today either as the doctor who was meant to look at my referral was at home yesterday, but she did manage to see that I have an appointment with a urotherapist the 5th of December, but…
3 weeks today
Today is Stevie the Stomas 3 week birthday, yay! To think how life has changed in these three weeks. It feels like Stevie has given me my freedom back, a new quality of life and change. Sure it's been daunting but after the ordeal before the operations and the months before this is amazing. I…
Adventure to meet my stoma nurse
It was not easy getting up this morning, I was tired beyond words, but I managed to get up, shower and change bag ready for my appointment with the stoma nurse. This morning my wee was quite red in my bag, that's one thing I really don't like about having a catheter, I just drank…
Lazy Sunday, windy and another first
Last night after a lot of tooing and throwing I got myself together and went to a friends moving in party. I luckily found a shirt, that my sister bought me, that was long enough to cover any bulges made by my catheter and managed to feel pretty normal. I painted on a face and…
