not such a good week

Just a quick entry to explain that I am not having a great week. Started feeling sick last Wednesday and can’t seem to shake it. Not sure if the problem is due to one of two ongoing health issues (1 being adhesions causing obstructions in the bowels, the other being a nasty Ricketsia infection), each a possibility, a view shared by both my GP and my specialist. It is affecting my digestive system and making me feel very unwell. From last night switched to eating only soups and that at least seems to have stopped the pain. Have also increased my dose of antibiotics (I am on longterm antibiotics) and today the fever was reduced. Heading back to the GP tomorrow.

I had hoped it was a virus…and could still be the case. In which case the fact that I am feeling better today could be coincidental and have nothing to do with the soup! Oh well…time will tell. Bought a chook today…looking forward to some chicken soup tomorrow.  Getting sick of Pumpkin soup which I cooked a big pot of yesterday! And no mean feat I must say. Cooking is a creative act and one that is impacted very much by our feelings and moods. Try cooking something delicious when all you can think of is chucking up J

Well that is enough wingeing for one night. There are many people who have real problems and keep smiling. I am a total sook. Can’t stand being crook…oh dear…this could be turned into a rhyme! Just noticed it is past midnight. Better hit the sack before I go totally gaga!
