I’m a little nervous but I’m sure I’ll be ok.

Soup seems to be a good food at the moment so I’m settling for that for most of my meals. In other news, the hospital called back and they want me in tomorrow morning for a flexi. I’m hoping I won’t need sedation nor have to stay in overnight. The consultant said it might be an infection but they won’t know until they have a look.

I know it’s only Sunday morning, but it’s been awful; I felt as though I hadn’t slept yesterday but had to power through a whole day at work (still not sure how I did it), and my stomach and gut have been hurting nonstop all day yesterday as well as last night, meaning I have barely slept again. I think this is my first real flare up and I have no idea what to do. I’m in too much pain to sleep and I’ve not eaten much in fear of it coming back up again. My new meds aren’t working yet and the helpline isn’t open until tomorrow!

whatcanieat:

Stayed for the whole show and thoroughly enjoyed it. Just a shame by body decided that I needed the toilet five minutes after leaving the theatre. I had to dash to the train station and use theirs. My wonderful fiancée is still wonderful and looked after me the short train journey home and made sure I had water to take pills with. Feeling really sleepy now though, so I’m off to bed. I’m working tomorrow but then I’m off for two days so I can catch up on my sleep then.

whatcanieat:

Despite feeling really lousy at work this morning, I’ve gone out to see a Burlesque show with my fiancée and some friends. I’m really enjoying it but I feel like I’m going to fall asleep soon so I might have to leave early. It’s a shame really but I’ll stay for as long as I can; I refuse to let my UC ruin such a good night.

whatcanieat:

I know I really, really, really, really shouldn’t, but I am ordering pizza for dinner. I will hate myself later on but I’m craving the things that I should not be eating right now. Just this once then I’ll go back to being careful… promise.

whatcanieat:

They’re starting me on Mercaptopurine which, apparently, should be better for me than Azathioprine. I’ll be starting them tomorrow morning so fingers crossed I should be feeling better in about a week or so (provided they work).

Also, I still have to have a blood test every week for the first six weeks, then every two weeks, then every three months if all goes well. Wish me luck!

whatcanieat:

Not to mention I’m hungry but don’t want to eat anything in case I regret it later.
I have eaten today but it’s been mostly junk food (cereal, pasta, cookies ect).
My symptoms are getting worse; my gut is grumbling and hurting, and I’m becoming reacquainted with the bathroom again.
It’s 22:45. I know I should go to bed and try to sleep but I really don’t want to.

On an unrelated note, I’m watching Supernatural season 4 again; it’s my latest distraction.
