Day twenty nine

It's a wet and windy morning and I am going to Trinity Methodist Church this morning for the Community Cafe. It's over a month since I've been. I used to go every week.

But first a report on yesterday: We went to Hungate church (Beccles) and were warmly greeted at the door, and inside, and after the service.

I had a 5-minute thing I had prepared. I wasn't sure how I was going to manage this: how I would feel and if I would be able to think on my feet (not been as good at that lately because of the tiredness). As it was, I was able.

For the rest of the day I was exhausted. I am continually wondering how long this is going to take. I have been "resting" for over a month now and I'm no more rested than I was at the beginning.

But hopefully when the CT scan is done we might know something.

One strange addition: since Saturday I have been having heartburn. This is a symptom of oesophagitis - one that I have not had before, but I have been on 3 different types of tablet for it. I stopped taking them on Thursday, and now I have heartburn! I had to search through the kitchen bin to retrieve the tablets in their foil.

I wonder whether this is my mind just being its usual self: no heartburn - take tablets; stop taking tablets - heartburn!

I preferred being healthy. It was a lot less complicated.
