About Me

My photo
I'm in my 30's, which to me sounds very odd. I only feel like I'm in my 20's and definitely not a grown up. I have spent the last 7 years battling with my health; firstly spending 2 years getting a diagnosis for a tumour on my pituitary gland which was causing Cushings Disease; then spending the rest of my life dealing with a pituitary gland that doesn't work. However, I have a fantastic family and an amazing boyfriend who I live with and adore - they keep me going and inspire me to try to make the most of life and my life in general.

GOOD NEWS! CFS Specialist appt has arrived!

Oh yay! I have my Chronic fatigue specialist appointment through, 30th March, so not long to wait... I suppose I shouldn't hope for too much to come from it but I can't help myself. Today is a particularly bad day. My sister popped in at 9am before she went to work which got me up - a good thing - so after she left I finished my breakfast and decided to face the day. 'I will just clean up the kitchen and hoover downstairs before I shower' I thought to myself. This I accomplished. Unfortunately although in the back of my mind I knew I wasn't quite feeling right, after doing this cleaning I suddenly felt completely drained. I am now back in bed, its like I can barely move... I know I can but its an effort. Even typing this is not very comfortable. I have had to cancel my sisters coming to visit me this afternoon because I know all I need to do is re-charge my batteries or it will be worse tomorrow. Hopefully I will feel up to doing some small creative activity for myself this afternoon like making some birthday cards or some such thing....I'll see how it goes....
