The last 2 and half weeks have been a little crazy. Follow me on Instagram <- clicky. Photo 1: Ah - these. Yeah. This is the paper pants they make you wear during surgery. I had surgery on my jaw... so I have no idea why I required paper underwear. 🤔 Photo 2: A very tired, … Continue reading My (2.5) Week on Instagram

The Last Week.
10 days - I'm sorry. I've been rather meh. Between taking strong pain meds and muscle relaxants, not sleeping because of night fevers and pain and still having a 90% liquid diet, I'm exhausted. Some days I have slept and barely been able to have the energy to eat and others I have used my … Continue reading The Last Week.
The Sun Will Come Out, Tomorrow.
Tomorrow, I have an appointment with the oral surgeon in the dental hospital in the city. At the appointment on Friday, my dentist decided that their definition of "urgent" and his were not the same as my jaw is more locked than before and my "good" side is starting to lose muscle strength. Looking forward … Continue reading The Sun Will Come Out, Tomorrow.

Turning a new Leaf
Over the past two days, I have met my new GP and my new nurse. If you have read my last post you will know that I had to meet my new GP to discuss my medication including my need for a new prescription of Tramadol - which she allowed. My spine and I thank her. … Continue reading Turning a new Leaf
Tarred With The Same Brush.
Recently, I changed GP surgery to our new district. Having been with the same GP literally since birth it is easy to presume how nervous I am about this whole process and situation. I have arranged my "initial consultation" for tomorrow (Friday) and for the first time in years I arranged my own prescription. I … Continue reading Tarred With The Same Brush.
