Brain ache

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

My God I have a savage headache today :( Hopefully it’s a combination of me coming down gradually off the steroids and also I am getting quite dehydrated so that can have consequnces for headaches too.

I am finding it difficult to drink much a the moment, my stomach is quite inflamed so I have been put on a tight “diet” whih means no tea, coffee, milk, fatty foods, chocolate etc.. I’m having dry-ish toast for breakfast and having lightly flavoured water to drink throughout the day and a diner that’s not too spicy or fatty (which we rarely have anyway).

Two weeks I have to do this, then go back to my GP and see how it’s going - I have a suspicion I may have a ulcer thanks to the long-term painkillers and steroids I have been on.. something the GP should be able to advise on after we see how my diet helps :)
