Leave it alone

That is it - I shall leave my desk now and wander downstairs and try and find some other distraction for a short while. I need to do a final...

How low can you go

›
No not limbo dancing! Doh!.. I thought (as you do) it would be fun to do my BP readings 117 / 75 with a pulse of 65. Any lower they'd ha...

Going into my shell now

›
I can tell - very short answers to questions and not offering more than that at all. I'm nowhere near as bad as I have been but now I...

Not Me

Something interesting I was just talking to a friend of mine about. "Not Me" - another strategy to use once you are in Hospital. ...

Calm Things

I've decided to start listening to some music now and have my MP3 player pumping out some sounds. For the record (no pun intended) I hav...

No Dreams or Nightmares

It is funny that I haven't had the dreams and the nightmares leading up to this admission. I had them some weeks ago. Perhaps the medi...

MP3 Player - brilliant

›
Impressive - over 265 songs on my MP3 player - that should be enough for a week let alone a couple of days... The last time I went in with a...

Positive Thoughts and Suggestions

Coming to terms with the outcome

›
It hasn't happened yet of course. I'm hoping that things have gone well and that I'll be put on maintenance. Like last time, o...

A bit better tonight

›
I did no exercises this morning and my back has been rather tender all day but now, late at night it appears to be a lot better. I really d...

Not a lot better this morning

›
My back is still giving me twinges to remind me it is there. I can only imagine it was a combination of loading, unloading and dragging the ...

I paid for it on Sunday

›
Bad back - I wonder if that was the Easter Egg Hunt or pulling the BBQ out of the shed or just as I was on my feet for most of the day? What...

Long, Long Day

It was a long day today, we started early and went to set up the Easter Egg Hunt and together with some really superb friends we had a wonde...

Crikey

In on a day like today

I remember my Mum saying that to me - it is a wonderful day outside and I am - stuck in here! I think I will try and wrap everything up in ...

Morning Report

›
Well - I got back up to 30 minutes exercise - a few minutes afterwards my BPM is 90 and I have a BP of 125/75 - stunning. I still feel reall...

Quite relaxed about this

I am surprisingly relaxed about things at the moment. The rising panic and stress seem to have gone and I'm going to have to put that d...

Don't try and do double entry bookkeeping

›
with a fuzzy head. Cor - this is doing my head in and I have a small anomaly in hundreds of entries and blow me - it is taking ages to fin...

Second Day on the pills

›
And my Blood Pressure is tumbling. I think 115 over 65 is pretty low and 75 BPM heart rate is pretty low for me. I suppose I ought to come ...
