27th Feb – a good food day, side effects from antibiotics.

Hey all, hope you are well.

I have been feeling a bit woosey in tummy and head today, one of the side effects of my antibiotics. I’ve also had a slight headache. I’m glad this is only a five day course.

It’s been a long time since I’ve needed antibiotics, and given the antibiotic crisis, I’m hoping it’ll be a long time before I need them again.

I probably won’t be posting tomorrow night, I’ll be very woosey tomorrow, on my three yearly prescription of diazepam. I’m expecting an amazingly great sleep from early evening onwards!

Today has been a decent day with regards to food.

My usual daytime food, 40g nuts, 60g dried fruits, 1 cheese portion, 1 prawn salad. I chocolate.

Paul cooked a nice spaghetti bolognese, using a bit of oil and 5% fat mince. We also had a small amount of lactose free milk.

Fluid – 200ml of milk, approx 1l of water, and 1.5 cups of tea.

Exercise – I really don’t think I can risk being too far from the loo!

Sleep – URGH! Not sure if tiredness is down to tablets or lack of sleep, but tired I have been, and remain.

Anyhow, wish me luck tomorrow, the dreaded but necessary smear test looms large. I wish I could be like I used to be with these tests, not particularly bothered, maybe in time I’ll get back to that state.
