Hello world! Today I woke up with the sun shining in on me, and a beautiful blue sky! Wow how life feels easier when the sun is out! Managed the night without morphine and slept right through which was amazing! Decided to treat myself while Axel was out and have had a pamper morning -…
Tired, pain, company and silly cat
Last night was difficult. My belly was sore and I had a horrible toothache which resulted in me taking a morphine tablet - i have been without for a full day (24 hours) - and they helped me sleep. This morning I took a long lasting tablett to counteract any pains while I'm tired and…
Monday 24th October
Monday 24th October Today the doctors came to speak to me. They said the colonoscopy showed that I had totalcolitis and that my full colon was completly inflammed, this I knew after having asked the nurses how it went after the colonoscopy on Friday. They were also concerned because I haven't been responding to the…
The last shot!
Finally take my last blood thining shot today! Thank god! I've had to take them myself for 2 weeks now and it's been hell each time! They aren't actually that painful as the needle is quiet small but mentally it's awful jamming a needle into you leg! Which by the way has been completely brushed…
Drugs, hot chocolate and mum
Had a couple of tired days now, so it's been nice just laying on the sofa relaxing, reading my book, doing some sudoku, and talking to mum and Axel when he's been here. I've finally taken my last cortisone tablet after being on it for 6 weeks. I am very happy to be off them…
💤
Evening all, today's been one very tired day. I over did it yesterday being over ambitious with the amount I could handle in one day so I slept like a baby last night and been extremely sleepy all day. I had a strange dream that Axel came home with about 10 people , 5 of…
My first first 😊
Tonight I ate out for the first time since my operation and the first time in I can't remember how long! We ate dim sum, first time I tried it too! Some of the dishes were really tasty! At first my old feelings of fear kicked in - where's the toilet, I hope the queue…
Colonoscopy and todayÂ
Friday the 21st of October After returning from the concert last night on an adrenaline high I had to start drinking the prep (laxation) for the colonoscopy. It was one of the looongest nights. The drink tasted of salty plastic, and if I drank too much too fast I felt sick. It was awful. You’re…
Today and 3 weeks ago
Last night was one of the best nights sleep I've had in months! I did wake up a couple of times but I slept well between wakes and it has made such a difference, I forgot how good it was to sleep! When I was in the middle of my bad flare I would spend…
Uugh
This morning was awful, woke up at 5.30 and was so uncomfortable, felt tense and pressure and didn't know what to do so ended up laying on the sofa watching the rest of the president crap and read my book. Ive been moving like an overly pregnant woman all morning, it's been awful! Eventually I…
