And On The 5th Day....

I'm travelling pretty well :)

I have had episodes of 'weird stuff' come over me and then go again

I have had this weird stuff before, so there is nothing new, just haven't had it all in one or two days like this

Nausea after I eat

Big time pins and needles in my head

Crawly feelings (kids used to say I was on crack when I used to get this!) - like something is crawling on your face/head but there's nothing there

The cicadas in my head got pretty loud

Air hunger last night

Random coldness

Word block is insane

Some shortness of breath

Feeling like my knees and elbows are swelling up, but they look ok

Feeling emotional ~ a bit teary

I even went to bed early

And woke up early!!!


Small Man on the other hand

Has had an insane headache

Waves of tiredness

Feeling like he is drugged out

Sleeping a lot more


I find it interesting how we have the same thing,

Yet we are so different symptomatically

Crazy disease

The chemist, and organising medication was ridiculously stressful
We ended up starting Doxycycline on the same day
The next round of stuff we need to add I have had to order from the mainland
May as well be living on the moon sometimes

Feeling grateful for friends that care
That keep asking how we are going
That are happy for us 
And supportive


My man has vacuumed this week, unpacked dishwashers, got groceries, offered to put washing away (I had to decline on this, god love him for offering but I may need to find these things again at some stage :P )♥
Mum has been up and folded a heap of washing for me ♥
I had offers of help to pack the order ♥

I find it hard to accept help
Being married to a shift worker
The rare event that anyone looked after my kids
Have all made me very independant
That's not to say that I run a spotless household and everything gets done
Of course it doesn't
I haven't exactly been well for 13 years
But I find it hard to let anyone help me with many things
I also need to do what I can when I can
In case there is a day when I can't
And I do need help

I have cooked sooo much food this week
Cos just in case...
