I know myself if I have consistent highs I want to sleep alot but only a few hours at a time. Only pain relief which works long hours helps me sleep longer.

Little one has been awake already so hoping not again tonight. No guarantees thou.
Hope you get a good nights sleep.Hope you are all well. Will be off to bed soon. Soooooo hot tonight. Thank god its still the weekend.
I'm feeling ill with the heat.
He's having good and bad days . Today hasn't started very well. He came to bed at 3.30am then up again at 6am. His knee was giving him alot of pain, had to use 2 walking sticks to move . Then by 9am he nodded off, but didn't stay asleep. His legs are still swollen and some days can't get socks and shoes on, or slippers . Gp has now put pregabalin on repeat for him. He's still not taking metformin and no change to bgs it's been 3 weeks now. His sleep pattern is terrible , he told the therapist that it's pain keeping him awake .
Had a weird MSK appointment.
Don't these so called specialists make you laugh. Of cause pain is in our head , it's our body's way of telling us things aren't right and it needs sorting sooner rather than later. Take earlier Ron was in the bedroom the next thing I heard him swear. When I asked him what was wrong he said it felt like a trapped nerve and the pain shot down his leg. Then all his toes curled up. The other week when we saw the specialist she asked Ron where he saw himself in 5/6 months from now . His reply was he wanted to walk. Specialist said they could help him with that but Ron had to put the effort in , nobody could do it for him.Had a weird MSK appointment.
He just keeps talking about pain being in our mind. He wants to try and help me use less painkillers. He wants me to keep moving. Increase my activity levels a little at a time. After 2wk intervals.
Ive told him struggling to get swimming logistically, especially 6wks for kids so they want to be out not in alot. 3 times a week is out of my reach. Walking as much as I can. In pain thou but not as breathtaking when on painkillers.
I cannot see how walking or swimming fixes what I have.
Maybe I'm expecting too much. He's told me it all has to come from me but I cannot get rid of the pain. No matter what I do.
I want my pain free walking back. Argh!!!! NOW!!!! ARGH...
Thats what this one is saying.
Your laugh at this one . Ron Rang gp to say that the 75mgs of pregabalin was OK for his pain and could gp now put it on repeat. I said to Ron but your still in pain so it needs to be stronger . Ron turned round and said well I don't want to be completely pain free. Well I can't put on here what I said to him.
Yes nhs prefer some pain to use as a yard stick and to avoid painkiller addiction. Humf! No fun.
