That pain I asked about in the week didn't go away and they've ruled out infection but my samples were not clear of blood or white blood cells - so - more investigation.

While waiting for a scan they've upped my pain meds to the point of *working entirely* and suddenly I am slightly high and free from pretty much all pain including my joint and niggly pains that I normally have to just deal with because long term conditions don't get hefty opioid prescriptions around here.

It was a gorgeous autumn day today, I have new Laura Ashley wellies gifted by my sister, I wanted to do something outside, and the stream on the premises of my son's pub was totally choked to the point that we were worried it might flood in heavy rain. So, I put those wellies on and had a great time puddling in that stream to clear it out and I had a robin and some blackbirds to cheer me on. I am bound to regret it and my arms are a tingle-fest of nettle stings but I had a lot of fun. It reminded me of days gone by on nature walks with the kids when we would stop and play in streams.
