As expected, kp suffered for her garden work yesterday. She was up a few times in the night to get some pain relief and getting out of the bed this morning involved quite a few shrieks of pain and a lot of slow manuevering.

kp was also feeling very sick this morning. We are not sure why, but to be safe she took an anti-sickness. Unfortunately, it didn’t work, and about an hour later, as I was readying the car for our trip to hydro, she felt that she was going to be sick. She hobbled at top pace to the nearest receptacle (the kitchen bin), but unfortunately was about 2 yards short when she erupted like Mount Vesuvius.

With all the wretching, she felt very weak, but thankfully Marie was on hand to help her back to the settee with a sick bowl at the ready.

We postponed Hydro, which would have been really beneficial today (with the hot water of the hydro pool) and phoned for a doctor’s appointment instead, not for the sickness as kp felt better after being sick, but rather on Ronnie’s blog advice about getting the pain in check. Thanks Ronnie !
At the doctor’s appointment, kp brought up about her pain relief not being enough. To cut a long story short. We are upping the frequency of the pain patches. Instead of 125ug Fentanyl every 3 days, she is going for the same amount but over 2.5 days. So, we’ll see how that goes.

We then went shopping for an oven as ours packed up for the second time yesterday. And that’s it. You can tell the pain is getting to kp. Her mood is low, but not too low at the moment. I’ll have to keep an eye on it.
