Still not doing great. Am completely bedbound, which sucks but it could be worse as I’m coping with sensory stuff other than touch okay. My bones in my upper leg are trying to cause pressure sores which is not fun, as I’m unable to move much, but I’m trying to prevent them. Tummy still rebelling against all food, but it looks like the kidney stuff was caused by lansoprazole as it’s clearing up and it hurts less. I have my penguins though. The heat from Penguin and Penelope helps my sore tummy/back more than my painkillers do, and they cheer me up in the process. I’ve been watching my colour changing candles today as well 🙂 I also watched the first two episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic season 3 today. It was awesome- scary and funny, with a great story, lovely songs and excellent animation. Definitely a great distraction, and I’m looking forward to the rest of the season now. I have downloaded some children’s books onto my Kindle app, and I’m hoping to be able to read them soon. They are easier than adult books and are good stories. The older ones are free on Kindle or Project Gutenburg and include some of my favourites. As holding a book is hell on my hands then reading on my tablet is better (plus I can increase the font size which helps with my blurred or double vision, that I have almost all the time). I don’t get on with audio books due to my auditory processing issues and terrible memory, so this is the best option for me. A shorter post today as I took an anti-nausea tablet earlier and it’s making me need to sleep now. Johan has a cold so I’m praying he doesn’t give it to me, and that he recovers quickly. He doesn’t sound like himself.
@dannilion have you talked to GP/district nurses about pressure relieving mattress? don’t want you getting sores *cuddles*
Hi Danni, I’ve heard that sheepskins can prevent pressure sores for people who are totally bedbound. Don’t know if they’re expensive, but I’ve heard of people with severe ME using them.
*cuddles* I hope things improve soon. Glad you enjoyed the ponies, though. x
