Re: not coping

Today is magnificently sunny, so after some housework this morning (and my walk which I had first thing) I plan to lie out in the sun on a towel in the garden this afternoon 🙂

Also, exercise here will be extended to 2 hours per day allowed, as of next Monday 🙂


I read that you have the horses this afternoon which you will take the kids to...how are your headaches today? (No worries if you would rather not talk about yourself, just ignore if so)

Re: not coping

oh that is good youll be able to go for longer walks or 2 1 hours walks. i know the sunshine really helps you and your mh so thats a good thing.

headaches are a little better this morning but i havent done anything except take the kids to school. mornngs are usually okish more like an noticieable ache but not enough to need pain relief but it usually gets worse as the day goes on.
yeah ill take the kids to do their horses but i will do my client horse on my own as mum is home at 4.

I'm glad the headaches are slightly better...it'd be good if they stayed that way for today, I really hope so. What is worrying is that the pain relief doesn't seem to be working 😞

I'm glad your mum is home at 4, so you don't have to babysit tonight 🙂

Re: not coping

i dont have to babysit any late nights all week thankfully. @NatureLover
unfortuantly no pain meds dont often work, i think i just have to try and ride it out as much as i can. sometimes it can take months to heal properly i hope it doesnt take that long! hopefully if the headaches improve thats a good sign, i still have a lot of the other symptoms but the headaches are the worst-that plus the confusion and forgettfullness.
