Well, here we are, another Wednesday and time to meet up with all of our friends who bare their desks each week. I've not really done anything for the whole week but did do a page of my black and white journal that I started years and years ago - well ok last year.
It is something that can be done anywhere because all you need is a white pen and a book with black pages. Must say that if I was to do it again I would use a white book and a black pen. The only problem I have with what I am doing is the white pen - I have tried loads. In fact I am so "off them" at the moment because the one I was using "blobbed" on my jeans. In an attempt to get it off I wet a piece of tissue and rubbed it off. Result: my best grey jeans now have a white streak on them - yes the colour has come out of the jeans (now about 3" x 1") - and I knew that was what happens as it did it before on my others. M & S too, so not cheap ones!
Pens I have tried: Gel, Posca, Sharpies, Dylusions, Pen Touch, One4All and maybe others in the past.
Health Update:
Blister is well, back pain is still here but the consultation last Thursday with Mr Singh went really well. I don't want to discuss it on here as it is something I don't like talking about but he does not think it is a polyp in fact he thinks that all the procedures in the past have been barking up the wrong tree an that I have Meckle's Diverticulum. Not to be confused with diverticulitis it is something that 2% of the population are born with.
So in November (and that is Mr Singh rushing it through) I will swallow a capsule which is a camera and which will travel around my bowel taking data and passing it to a belt I am wearing. That will be the decider on what happens next. My haemoglobin levels are only 8.3 which I think is pretty low and accounts for the tiredness etc but now with iron tablets doubled up and another blood test in two weeks we can hope for an increase there.
This afternoon I attend my first Pain Management Class - still not sure what I am going to get from them but I am signed up for 6 weeks and not allowed to miss one or you start all over again. We will just have to wait and see - maybe a brief account next week.
