As you can tell, I'm still counting in Days (smiles).
I had another restless night last night tossing and turning and before I knew it, the alarm clock had gone off to the start of another new day and it was time to get up for my eye drops and pain meds. I tried to get back to sleep but couldn't and spent the next few hours trying to watch tv amidst slumber, and eventually I managed to get some much needed sleep.
Still feel nauseaus, stomach isn't as bloated as much now that I'm off the antibiotics and other med I was on and today was the last nite of the steriods (yeah!). My head hurts today and is throbbing on the right side. My forehead feels hot.
I got the appt time mixed up for my consult with Jane tomorrow as it's in the morning instead of early afternoon, which means all my plans have now changed as I have an appt at the GPs which I'll now have to reschedule. Am still debating whether to drive all the way to Harley Street and/or drive to North Greenwich tube station amongst semi morning people traffic, and chance the tube. I'll make the decision in the morning when I get in the car and see how I feel then.
I washed my hair again today and amongst all the staples in my head, managed to straighten it and I feel and look presentable again and it's made a huge difference to my spirits (smiles). My right eyebrow seems to have dropped a little (or is it my imagination?).
I have lots of questions to ask Jane - I sent her an email last nite about my next lower eyelid reconstruction and suggested a surgery date (yup am really planning ahead) of 10 July 2006, which hopefully will give my body time to recover from this surgery and also for me to recoup together some finances. I will make a note to write down my questions for Jane on paper as otherwise I will most likely forget them.
Am still feeling tearful on and off. Nauseaus, and still much bruised. Still concerned about how I'll look if I do go back to work next Monday 19th Dec. I would very much like to extend that to another week off and return after X'mas. I'll discuss this with my GP. The way I look and feel right now, I'm sure it would be acceptable as my vision is still blurry and I have difficulty lifting my eyes up and to the left and right and it's easier to move my head than to move my eyeballs (meaning I'm not safe to drive - ah ha .... so oughtn't drive too much tomorrow!) :)
