As I head off into my 3rd week of deafness

I can't even begin to tell you what a bloody misery it has been with my tinnitus giving a high pitched screech in my head all the time and the muffled sound that I can't work out where they come from and the feeling of claustrophobia and being trapped inside my own body. Dreadful few weeks and just added to the way I felt after they banged me about in the Hospital too. Two weeks so far I've had this!

Added to that my electronic equipment committing Harakiri and 2009 has gotten off to a start that I want to forget.

I am due out tomorrow on Escort Duty but I wont touch any beer or wine and will have to be very careful of what I eat as the Antibiotics are also ensuring that what little food I am eating doesn't hang around long!

I am keeping my spirits up though - not sure how I am doing that - and just working my way through it. I actually think that I am taking my own advice in saying it is no use rushing back to work if you are ill and it is no use worrying about it either. What will be will be and where I used to be upset about missing work or anything like that well - what is the worst that can happen? As I've said before "no one dies" so it is OK.

I think it is just so frustrating to be sat here, behind in my University work, repairing PCs when I could be doing something else and so on.

Tomorrow takes me in to week 3 and the last week of January. If I'm brutally honest, I can't see myself being ready to go back to work much before Thursday or Friday and that is if the whole of my body cooperates to let me.

Oh well, thank goodness for the blog to let off a bit of steam now and then.
